Just remember that, no matter how much you like Shaqiri, you will never be more than his No.2 fan.

I love when you google Shaqiri one of the first 'questions also asked' is...

 

Does Shaqiri have dwarfism?  

 

Lulz  

[Cheeseweasel 26,438]

Wow. Great keeping!

[alincoln 2,385]

Juve wishing they had already bought Locatelli

[Braff Zacklin 13,665]

OK, even I think that flag was too late.

[kingkoopa6 8,378]

Lol.

Stop! Stop! They're already dead.

[kingkoopa6 8,378]

I was a bit shocked that hummels actually got to that.... even after a 10 yard lead

He got to it, because Hummels didn't want to be responsible for losing the game . . .

 

Spoiler

0 Germany 
2 France - FT

PS- Hummels knocked BOTH of Mbappe's feet/legs before he touched the ball, but it was the touching the ball that tripped up Mbappe.

Ukrainian 'keeper makes a pretty solid save on a (directional) Macedonia PK ... but they follow up with the tap-in.  2-1 UKR in the 57th.

[WBT 20,670]

Ukraine-North Macedonia getting interesting.

There's a tacking penalty-taking epidemic in America Europe

[WBT 20,670]

Lulz, nice shoulder check delivered to the Macedonian keeper

[Cheeseweasel 26,438]

Damn, so close. Pretty build up there.

[midtown 3,348]

Dental discussion is odd

[RamjetFDO 10,578]

[RamjetFDO 10,578]

...and apparently, no one can convert them.

And another miss.  Now 1/5 for the tournament.

Ukraine holds on.  That was a good game.

[Funk Doctor Spock 12,513]

It was a very good game. I wonder if Denmark will somehow pull out a victory over Belgium for their fallen comrade? Nah, not happening. But I've seen crazier things 

[Braff Zacklin 13,665]

KdB won't start but might play per pre-match commentary.

Also, if you designed the prototype center forward, how close would Romelu Lukaku be to it?

[midtown 3,348]

Eriksen will be getting an ICD implanted.  I assume that means his playing career is over?

Pretty sure it ended the moment he had a heart attack.

What a day, huh? One moment, you're captaining your national team in a major international tournament. The next, you're in a hospital bed and your career (and probably what you love doing most) is over.

But he's set financially, revered by all who know him, and ... alive.

I'm not sure I could go back on the pitch if that were to happen to me.  

[Trey3216 15,371]

Holy Shit!!!!

[mdmost 43,055]

Dream start for the Danes. 

[Braff Zacklin 13,665]

That didn't take long. Nice passing, poor defending, and a well struck attempt.

 

Well done, Danes.

[Jive Turkey 12,646]

now that was a soccer roar.  sounded awesome.

[Captain Ron 12,928]

Maybe we should tap the brakes on Belgium.

That didn't age well.  

 

(and yes, still 85+ minutes to go)

Haha. I was just about to say holy shit, maybe their emotions will them to victory after all 

[Jive Turkey 12,646]

damn.  the Danes are taking it to them.

[Braff Zacklin 13,665]

Courtois is under siege.

Obligatory:

[Cheeseweasel 26,438]

Almost 2-0. Denmark rocking.

[Funk Doctor Spock 12,513]

Denmark ain't messing around. This is nice to see.

Like their own Battle of the Bulge right now.  

[Captain Ron 12,928]

Technically isn’t 9:00-9:59 the 10th minute?

[Braff Zacklin 13,665]

Yesh.

Cardiac Arrest =/= Heart Attack (Myocardial Infarction)

I don't believe anyone has provided an etiology up to this point for what happened on the pitch. It is more likely that Christian had an arrhythmia that lead to Ventricular Tachycardia which required defibrillation. The device that they are implanting (ICD) will monitor his heart rate and if he drops into the non-live sustaining rhythm again, it will try to "shock" him out of it.

I doubt he plays again, but the issue appears to be more electrical than muscular. If so, and they can find the etiology and fix it, he could theoretically play again.

[Cheeseweasel 26,438]

Belgium didn't seem too fired up to comply with the 10 minute deal.

[Jive Turkey 12,646]

is this a full stadium?

[RamjetFDO 10,578]

I've always been a fan of that (originally Brazilian) side-kick punt by goalkeepers that Schmeichel just did.  You can really get some power *and* directional control on it.

My bad. His heart stopped beating, which is not the same as a heart attack.

Even with the ICD implant to keep any arrhythmia in check, and even if he wanted to play, I doubt any side would risk it. At least, any side in Europe, the U.S., etc.
