Other Sports: Soccer/Football Thread Part Six

It almost came home but turned out to be just another visit at the step aunt. Oh no.

What would you rather have, fish 'n chips or a nice dish of paella?

The English will want his useless ass gone, but to be fair to Southgate, he made some good decisions today. Went with a back 4 which definitely was the right decision against Spain and their midfield.
I also liked his subs, although you can argue that he waited too long to take Kane off.
It also felt like Rice and Bellingham had the Spanish midfield mostly under control. Mainoo was terrible though. He's so slow, it's unbelievable. Completely overhyped.

Mushy peas vs churros or a true tortilla.

Easy decision

Looks normal to me.

I think this happened at Wembley between England and Italy in 2021 and it definitely happened at Paris between Real and Liverpool.

It did definitely in 2021. There’s a Netflix documentary that came out recently about it too. Haven’t watched it.

It's so embarassing.

Let me tell you what would happen if I paid thousands of dollars for a ticket to this game and showed up with some schmoe with no ticket in my seat...

What would happen if you paid thousands of dollars and you couldn’t even get in the stadium?

Honestly, that probably ends better. Im.not about to assault a cop.

 

[trostol]

[Hollywood Cannon]

I do love me some trainers working on the opposite leg than the one that seemed to be rolled on.

Poor goalkeeping on that Martinez goal. Cechmanek'd himself there.

 

[trostol]

i wanna stab my ears listening to these guys in the commentating box

England in the knock-out stages:

vs Slovakia: 1.44 ExGF (43.5% ExGF%)
vs Switzerland: 0.85 ExGF (37.4% ExGF%)
vs Netherlands: 1.36 ExGF (69.7% ExGF%)
vs Spain: 0.64 ExGF (26.6% ExGF%)

Yeh... they deserved to go out in the last 16... and were outplayed in 3/4 knock-out games.

Fluked their way to a final playing awful football that wastes teams talent and ran out of luck and magic moments.

 

[Appleyard]

Another hilarious fact.

Spain had 6/7 games in the tournament over 1.5 ExG...
England had 0/7 games in the tournament over 1.5 ExG...


LMFAO.

When do you think they announce the extension?

 

[Starat327]

Another yesr, another sponsor less kit launch, from an ownership group that called out the commercial side of the club as a glaring opportunity..

At least it gave me this amazing interaction this morning.
