Have they showed why the call? I’ve been flipping between this, the CWS and the Stanley Cup 

The review took probably 4 minutes, it was LONG.  They showed it several times. The AR must have thought the offside player affected the keeper. 

[Captain Ron 12866]

If that’s the case - that’s bullshit. The Netherlands/France call I get. If it was that - WTF?!?!?

Wonder if Ronaldinho is watching ...

If he is, by now he’s one of those videos of a pissed fan destroying his tv. 

[Captain Ron 12866]

This game is U-G-L-Y

 

But that’s the only way Costa Rica stays in the game, so they are doing something right. 

[Braff Zacklin 13552]

Some of the close control and passing in tight spaces the Brasileiros exhibit is dazzling ... but when it comes time to shoot ... meu Deus!

This. They’re gorgeous in every aspect except putting it in the goal.

[Anastasis 23458]

lol what are you doing brasil.

Greg obviously overlooking the fact that each entree comes with a cookie. Sheesh.

[Anastasis 23458]

lol. Ref has swallowed the whistle at this point. 

[Braff Zacklin 13552]

How, Brasil? How is that possible?

[LurkingHorn 1066]

Brazil got the full concacaf experience tonight. Costa Rica is terrible but plays 10 behind the ball. Then the Mexican ref proceeds to swallow his whistle for obvious calls, and now the time wasting.

No, Brazil just sucks. They did this to themselves.

Brazil was not great, but Costa Rica fucking sucks. I hate watching them play. 

[Captain Ron 12866]

 

This doesn't look so good now does it?

[WBT 20561]

CONCACAF thunder!

[Braff Zacklin 13552]

Key here is only 3 shots on goal out of 19 attempts. Still, one of the more lopsided boxscores I've seen for a draw.

Yeah, but fuck Brazil.

This isn't something new for Brazil, 8 goals in 6 games.

You know, I meant to look at this and kept forgetting, but I looked it up this morning

 

Yeah, a Mexican ref.

 

CONCACAF'd

Had Brazil in the last leg of a nice 5 team parlay yesterday.  They were the only one I was sure of so I didn’t even check it.

Ain’t that a kick in the cabeca.

[Ted Lange 16084]

and it is getting chippy!

[Ted Lange 16084]

Potential RED CARD on Peru for a head butt!

No Red Card.

[Longhornfan1024 1707]

So head butting is legal now. Good to know.

[Captain Ron 12866]

How is the game +4 minutes at 55 minutes!!!

[Longhornfan1024 1707]

AR collapsed from the heat.

[Ted Lange 16084]

 

 

[Ted Lange 16084]

That has to be a red on Peru

[Ted Lange 16084]

Red confirmed.   Surely Canada gets their first goal under Marsch now.

Correct

[Braff Zacklin 13552]

So far, CONCACRAP has not embarrassed itself. Only losses are to fellow confederation members.

[Ted Lange 16084]

Peru just subbed on a guy who hasn’t played since October.  I assume injury but the announcers didn’t clarify 

[Napoleon 8660]

Most of the Canadians have show a first touch comparable to an MLS team in 2003.

[Captain Ron 12866]

Just flipped the back game on and I’m shocked to see Peru down a man.

If Canada had scored again, Peru would have lost another player. No question the chippiness would have gone to another level.

[Bottlecap 1523]

Canada is ass. They looked horrible.

They ultimately can't get past the fact that they have 2-3 European level players and then a bunch of MLS journeymen.

[Captain Ron 12866]

Jesus, is this Copa America or the Chilean Olympic diving trials? 

[MNLonghornFUKM 8817]

Chilean women’s team doing a hell of a job keeping up with Argentina

[MNLonghornFUKM 8817]

Wow Messi…what a strike…missed but still a hell of a kick

[RamjetFDO 10575]

Get ready. It's coming.

"Forty-five minutes down. FORTYFIVETOGO!"

[Napoleon 8660]

Carli is getting more and more pregnant with each half of soccer.

[Ted Lange 16084]

She starting to resemble Laura Loomer 

[Napoleon 8660]

Rodrigo de Paul is looking like a Canadian in tonight’s match.

[Ted Lange 16084]

His shots are as accurate as a Star Wars storm trooper 

[Napoleon 8660]

The ball seems to be crawling along the grass. 

I don’t think that they re-watered at halftime.

[Captain Ron 12866]

Martinez is ready for action. A couple of big saves.
