Lol Messi is a midget pillowbiter

He wishes he could be a real alpha like Ronaldo

That had to have been frustrating for Argentina. Looked like Iceland had no intention of playing any type of offense.

Their height and sized really worked to their advantage too.

Manlets, when will they learn?

Fox Sports update just stated that Iceland “Took Out” Argentina, yet followed up with a 1-1 score announcement.

Can you guys explain what they meant please?

Christiano Ronaldo had a hat trick vs Spain in his first game.

He’s one of the greats

ARG is top 5 and a favorite. ICE is rising fast, but still only rose from mid-100s to mid-20s in ranking.

In the Cup format, this tie severely hampers ARG going forward.

Like if the Chiefs were late in the season on the verge in a tight race for a playoff spot, then we tie in prime time at home to Cleveland.

FIFA rankings don't really mean anything so I would not use them as a rubric. Like at all.

Iceland finished first in the European qualifiers in a group that had Turkey and Croatia. Croatia is a very high quality team with a bunch of really good players and a couple of superstars.

Iceland also beat England in Euro 2016 to reach the quarterfinals.

They are a good team. I didn't understand Fox's coverage of them.

Argentina may still win this WC, but I honestly think they blew their wad in 2014. They're aging now. Also, I feel like Argentina's teams of late 90's to mid 2000's were their historic best.

Skill-wise, Messi is the GOAT. CR7 is clutch as ****, though. Messi is the Lebron James to Ronaldo's Michael Jordan.

Before you go HAM, you might note that I was EXPLAINING Fox's headline, not defending it.

The Fox Sports commentary team is bordering on farcical.

"Ah joo tawkin, TO MEEE?!?"

"Oh Lawd, this is quite the tenses."

Baby Lee 06-16-2018 10:47 AM

Shot!! Obah day crosbah!!

EDIT: And the play-by-play guy has an annoying quirk of calling throw-ins handballs.

Pants 06-16-2018 12:03 PM

That was surprisingly entertaining. I had no idea Peru had this kind of quality.

cj2wr 06-16-2018 12:15 PM

Peru is very good. Shame they missed a lot of opportunities. Uphill battle to get out of that group now

MMXcalibur 06-16-2018 12:18 PM

**** Croatia.
Bunch of racist shitheads.
