I've heard it all now.
My mum never swears, but she said refering to Neymar diving yet again.

We celebrate your win tonight Belgium..:cleader::cleader::cleader::cleader:

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

Well I've just lost £90 as I had Brazil in the works sweepstake.

But can we see a crying cheating Neymar please :D


If he played more rather than diving, they might have won.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

Another result marred by a shocking VAR decision.:rolleyes:

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

its a nice all European Semi and Final :)



whos going through, I'm thinking France for sure as if they get going nothing will stop them, Croatia I think as well and sorry English people on the forum but think that Sweden is going to do England over.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

No need to apologise DocDutch as l would rather have someone say what they think rather then hiding behind their petticoats..

England IMO will have to up their game today as Sweden will be very difficult to break down , Croatia will get through tonight and France well they are favourites now so lets see if they are affected by the favourite's tag.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

I assume you mean the disputed penalty by Kompany on Neymar, in which case you would have to thank karma after all Neymars previous antics. ;)

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

Except bad decisions like that and the poor execution of VAR in it affects everyone not just two teams. Even 'Karma' is distorted. Neymar never received a single decision for a dive, they were then denied a stonewall penalty. Surely the idea would be for the referee to get all the decisions right.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

Obviously paying attention then, I think you will find it was Jesus not Neymar.:rolleyes:

That Sir Bobby Robson segment though.

Shearer was bang on the money though, the passing is abysmal at times and the creativity is lacking. Every time there's an opening or a chance to cross they turn back on themselves. So hesitant.

Unsure why we're entertaining them with hoofed balls to nowhere and clearing it back to them when you're under no pressure and there's 3 team mates around you.

That's it, now press the issue. Sweden can't just dig in now.

How'd you have an entire goal in front of you and manage to find the keeper, offside or not. We got better as the half went on. We can't afford to start games like that against bigger teams though.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

Long passes down the channel as they cannot cope with pace..

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

There's only Trippier willing to make that pass. There's still a bit of hesitancy about, it's the same with crossing. It's never first time it's always after Sweden have regrouped at the back.

I can't even be bothered to argue about Sterling.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

If Sterling had the tools of a Mo Salah or other top forwards this match would have been over but my fear is Sweden will somehow conjure a goal from nowhere and get back into the game..

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

And Alli has given away or lost the ball so many times I lost count.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
 

Lost and been invisible for the rest of the time. Its like playing with 10 men at times and still winning. Should be taking full advantage of having 11. Deploy the Rashford, or the Dwight Gayle. :D
