FIFA World Cup 2018

Well, apparently nobody cares about the SWE-SWI match. Its been rather dull and now the swedish are leading thanks to yet anoter own goal.

I thought it was Fosberg who scored.

I have it on but the match is in danger of being as exciting as Denmark-France and I don't know if my heart can take it.

Forberg's kick took a deflection on a Swiss defender which fooled the goalkeeper and entered the goal.

A pretty dull match. SWE was perkier and deserves to win, but not a classic this one.

I’m at work so can’t watch the game and can’t post much either. But sounds like I didn’t miss much!

Fox is showing a red card given, but I can’t find anything online. Help, please. (And yes, I’m a bad fan, but decided to save my eyeballs for the 2:00 match.

Switzerland had Lang sent off in the 94th minute due to a deliberate foul on a Swedish player on the edge of the penalty box. A penalty was originally given but after checking VAR it was a free kick on the edge of the penalty area.

I won't be watching the England Colombia game live as I get too nervous. I will be on later to do the commiserate with @oleada or congratulate them ?

 

[SamuraiK]

I think England has been a better team so far and deserves to go through but I want more latin representation in quarter finals, so not sure who to root for.

 

[Lara]

I'm going to be pretty torn this match lol. I just hope it's a good one and may the best team win. Still kinda bummed I came back home just as the WC started, I'd have liked to see at least one England match in Millennium Square or a pub.

 

[oleada]

I told myself that winning any knockout match was a bonus but I'm nervous as hell and I really hope we win this!

 

[Finnice]

I usually root for England, but will also happy if @oleada's team wins. May it be a good game!

 

[oleada]

No James? Well, we are deeply ****ed

 

[Buzz]

So sorry @oleada but I’m rooting for England.

 

[SamuraiK]

Why is James not even on the subs bench? What's going on?

Calf injury. Hasn't even trained since the Senegal game

 

[oleada]

Barrios, you ****ing idiot, giving away the ball like it's your job and now heading people while setting up the barrier.

 

[SamuraiK]

Calf injury. Hasn't even trained since the Senegal game

I knew he was injured but shouldnt he still be in the bench with the rest of the non playing members supporting his partners? Sitting on the audience makes it look like he's not even part of the team anymore. Oh well...

The match is turning very fighty.

 

[Finnice]

Lots of using hands and shoulders in this game. Me not like.

I think it's because he's not fit to play? Otherwise, I have no idea.

Barrios was dumb but Henderson's reaction to being nudged was Neymar-esque.

 

[SamuraiK]

The colombian player in the barrier should have been given a red card.

And what's up with the tech staff member pushing the rival player as he comes out of the field?? This is getting ugly.

 

[oleada]

Thus far I think the winner of this match is Sweden.

 

[Buzz]

These guys should stop arguing and just get on with it.

 

[SamuraiK]

That was a very stupid penalty. The COL player basically mounted Kane like a pony in front of the referee.

 

[quartz]

Just joing in now - wth is going on in this game!?

 

[Buzz]

Oh sh§¥#!!! Do not want to know how much extra time this game is going to have.

 

[oleada]

The ref has no control over this match. Behavior is shameful on both sides but sadly Colombians are worse.

That said, I thought Kane grabbed Sanchez first. I don't know why they didn't go to VAR?

 

[Buzz]

Just joing in now - wth is going on in this game!?

Lots of fighting!

England 1-0!

 

[Buzz]

So Sharpie... did you cash in that bet yet?

 

[Finnice]

Ugh, so ugly.

 

[oleada]

Ugh, this Henderson guy is a dick.

ETA: Actually it might have been Stones.
