Pub World Cup Final Rounds

referee trying to manufacture an interesting end

 

[The Nomad]

Dembele just did the Jota gaming celebration 😢

 

[The Nomad]

Interesting last 15 minutes there.

I think they should have stuck with the penalty. Outside the area a high foot is a foul. Should be the same inside the area.

 

[Modo]

I'm surprised that Trent didn't do anything special to highlight Jota's passing.

 

[mwake]

Seen Trent smiling more in this tournament than he has in the last few years. It's as if he spent the last few years playing for a Roy Hodgsons Liverpool.

 

[Squiggles]

Christ that injury is sickening

Not sure Donnarumma was really to blame. He kinda ran between ball and keeper and gladly would have taken contact if it meant a penalty. Suspect his foot got planted at the wrong time and the keepers force did the rest. It's not like the Pickford one that crippled VVD.

Anyway he'll surely be out for most of next season, if not longer. Might liven up the Bundesliga a bit, probably not though.

 

[Hansern]

Yet another reason this ridiculous tournament should bever have happened.

 

[rurikbird]

Yeah, feel for Musiala, such terrible luck for the lad.

In fairness, have to say both games yesterday were very, very good. Champions League level football played on the US soil for the first time ever.

 

[Dreambeliever]

I’m petty but I hope Madrid don’t win it!

 

[The Nomad]

The alternative is PSG.. if they win it Dembele will get player of the year.

Rock and hard place.

Not really bothered about the quality of the games when you know the players affected are in for a horrendous season in a WC year.

 

[Judge Jules]

Agree, although I must admit to hoping we'll benefit from that where Man.C.and Chelsea are concerned.

You could tell people you were going to a Fluminense match instead...

I always thought it was Flumin-ese until I typed it for the first time ever just there a few minutes ago and noticed the extra n.

well there you go, a team we dislike v a team we’re unsure how to spell, in a tournament, in america, in a heatwave.

13 bucks a ticket? That's probably about what's she's worth.

 

[King Binny]

😳 A journalist leaves Enzo Maresca speechless ahead of the match vs. Fluminense:

🗣️ Enzo Maresca: "We've played 63 games this season! European teams come into this competition differently than South American teams [including Fluminense], who have played fewer matches. The conditions are different..."

- Journalist: "But Fluminense has played 70 games this season — in the same period as your club."

Maresca had no reply. Not a single word. 😶🔇

Could have been a decent option

 

[darkstarexodus]

Could have been a decent option

I thought for sure we were getting either him or Cunha.

Have to say he looks miles better than anything they’ve had in that position for a while. Not sure they need another striker if he keeps performing like that.

Chelsea are the new man city buying there way to be the top team. Breaking all the rules and no one is stopping them. Did the new owner get a get out of jail pass for replacing putin's friend at the club.
