Euro 2024

[Braff Zacklin 13613]

Oh, wow. Might not matter but what a miss.

[Macklemore 2872]

This is the best Austria side since their 1998 World Cup team with Toni Polster. They should be up 4-1.

Edited June 21 by Macklemore

[Braff Zacklin 13613]

Need a Lewandowski header here.

[Captain Ron 12883]

The Polish back line is wasted. They can't keep up and there are free runs for the Austrians to get.

[PittsburghTiger 6188]

Well done Austria. They haven’t had anyone successful in Berlin for quite some time.

[HenryJames 66081]

Suddenly Netherlands-Austria will mean something.

This just in: Zorro scheduled to make a relief appearance for France today versus the Dutch.

too soon, man.  too soon.  Only been 90 years.

[Captain Ron 12883]

Man, that would have been a stunner for the Netherlands to come out and score that fast, like that.

Similar but, not them.

[Hagbard Celine 10867]

hup hup holland

[Captain Ron 12883]

If these early jabs are indicative of what this game is going to be ....

[PittsburghTiger 6188]

This game should be a shit ton of fun!

I have never been to the Netherlands. I will be there in August for the race. My German cousin HATES them. Loathes them completely.

I’ve had some great beach vacations in France.

I have no dog in the fight so I just want a great game.

[The Dog 44060]

wtf was that France

[HenryJames 66081]

[Firemans4Horn 18080]

[Macklemore 2872]

 

[Captain Ron 12883]

Man, the Dutch counter is firing all right. When they get a French turnover, they are ready to strike. It is good stuff!!!

 

[HenryJames 66081]

That's not a yellow.

LoL Austrian gave the keeper a bit of boot as he went flailing by. Definitely looked intentional.

It is ALWAYS intentional.

When the announcers say “It didn’t appear to be intentional.” I always repeat “It was absolutely fucking intentional!”

Perhaps the announcers are instructed to say that, but ones who used to play know that it’s always intentional and I’m fairly certain that every announcer who didn’t play knows as well.

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

Pimping?

Drug dealing?

Roofie aided theft?*

I have cousins who live in Vegas, another friend lived there for a decade or so because his wife was working international relations with WYNN (went to Macau frequently because she speaks Portuguese), but I would not want to live there.

 

*a friend got roofied at a casino in New Orleans by a couple and they took him to an ATM where he withdrew his limit and then went on a shopping spree at a Walmart where he spent over $1,000 and he didn’t remember any of it. 
Supposedly there is some drug that leaves you completely susceptible to agreeing with whatever another person suggests. 

[Firemans4Horn 18080]

No idea why Holland aren’t playing 3 CB’s and 2 wing backs with their roster. 

[Firemans4Horn 18080]

Onana wouldn’t have saved that Simons shot. 

[Braff Zacklin 13613]

Random thought:

Gakpo sounds like the trademarked name of some heavily processed food alternative ... or a multinational mining conglomerate.

Stupidity.

[HenryJames 66081]

Landon Donovan has called at least two Dutch players Depay.

[Captain Ron 12883]

I feel pretty confident saying that if Mbappe was playing, France is leading this game right now. They just seem to be lacking that little something that would get them over the hump and he would be it.

 

[Hagbard Celine 10867]

Memphis Depay is on the pitch.....

KatFid is off the hook and from now on, “Landon” or “Donovan” will be the new name for people who can’t tell people apart. 

[Firemans4Horn 18080]

Kante should have shot it. 

[Braff Zacklin 13613]

Nicely taken.

[Hagbard Celine 10867]

will be ruled off

[Captain Ron 12883]

THE NETHERLANDS!!!!

 

[Firemans4Horn 18080]

England loves chalking these type of goals off

[Ghost of LL 15531]

Good God--absolutely stunning to me that neither of these teams have scored into the 71st minute.

[Captain Ron 12883]

Let's see the VAR

[hobbes2702 13045]

Who’s offside? Looked clean on first view 

[HenryJames 66081]

Yeah.

[hobbes2702 13045]

That’s not offside. This shit has to stop.

[WBT 20586]

offside

[Captain Ron 12883]

Oh yeah, I can't fathom they don't call that offsides.

What are you talking about - that's as involved as you can be and not have the ball.

[Blotto 23525]

Fuck

He doesn’t affect the keeper at all. It’s just a really stupid use of the rule.

Keeper has clear view, couldn’t make the save, and then wants to act like he couldn’t dive because of the player. Trash decision

[HenryJames 66081]

No goal.

[Firemans4Horn 18080]

VvD does a good job of channeling all of my hatred for Mancthony Taylor. 

Edited June 21 by Firemans4Horn

[Napoleon 8682]

We need an overhead angle to see how far away the Dutch guy was. 

Booooooo!!!!!

[Derka 6225]

maignan was never getting to that shot. he didn’t even try. france is my no.2 team and i say that should be a goal.

He gives no space to the keeper to even attempt a save.
