Yeah, maybe.  I can't make out images on computer screens very well in middle age.  I get the bribery connotation but why in his eye socket?  Seems weird.  I guess it's a think-piece.  

Just watched the Serbia/Slovenia replay of the equalizer goal.  Does everybody from Slovenia just gobble cock, is that like their thing?

These 8 am games have been bangers. 

I bet if you break it down, the bulk of the morning games (the ones that are mid day in Germany) are between lesser ranked teams in the standings, pot 3 and 4 teams (Slovakia-Ukraine fits this). The teams gotta go for it in this matchup, hence the fun games.

Fantastic goal for Austria to take the lead, 2-1, we are now in 69th minute.

Very entertaining game.

 

One of my grandfathers was born in Wien, although he considered himself to be Deutscher.

Still, I kind of root for Österreich.

That's as clear of a foul by a keeper as you will find. He throws his arms out hoping and catches his knee.

It was a clear PK and yellow. No review necessary.

But I'm still chuckling at that boot the Austrian gave the keeper.

I was a bit distracted looking at apartments in Vegas. My nephew might be moving there this summer.

Condolences. Did he commit some sort of crime or does he just hate life?

I'll rephrase - he didnt' catch his knee, but he catches the foot. I don't doubt that the attacking player "leaves his foot there" but SZCZEZNZEZNEZ caught him and knew it from the moment he got up - that's why he gave a pat to the ref and went and checked on the player. Again, and obvious call.
