Screw this idea of taking teams from every continent.

The FIFA rankings are already corrupt enough as is, this is a terrible idea.

NCAA basketball coaches should vote on the FIFA rankings

A VAR [booth replay] penalty kick awarded!!

Baby Lee 06-16-2018 05:21 AM

Sloppy, but compelling in a chaotic way.
AUS immediately answer when a FRA defender [handball] punches a cross OOB like he was Dekembe Mutombo blocking a PG's layup.

One of the most low-key, flukey appearing, yet bordering on epic, goals I've seen in a while.

Semi-equivalent of Lebron nonchalantly tossing the ball over his shoulder from half court tied at halftime and swishing it at the buzzer.

French striker gets the narrowest of windows at the 18 with a bounding pass into center. Gets a quick toe flick on it and the ball rockets right over the goalkeep, clangs off the top bar and down into goal. Zip, boom, bam, . . . even took a second for the commentators to even register what happened.

Really? How so? I am curious.

God I love the artistry of a buildup goal.

Argentina with all the momentum and a goal lead, then a miscue on the midfield wing.

Iceland strings together a ton of masterful passes, and settles into goalfront pressure quickly, . . . until one of the crosses connects and just like that it's tied.

Lots to soak in and enjoy.

EDIT: The more I watch, the more impressed I am by Iceland's facility in creating opportunities.

Baby Lee 06-16-2018 08:25 AM

I don't believe, . . . what I just saw!!

Messi with a half-hearted grunt at a PK, blocked. . . WTF?!?!

Baby Lee 06-16-2018 08:55 AM

Last minute free kick, right outside 18!!

Messi - right into wall, whistle blows. Game. Draw.

Argentina built themselves a mountain to climb for the rest of the Cup.

Iceland is underrated. They crushed European qualifiers. I hate their style but they get results.
