The Football (Soccer) Thread - Season 2017/2018

LOL at people calling Suarez a cheater. He took it for the team, Ghana got a penalty kick. It’s their fault they missed their opportunity. Suarez is a goddamn hero.

I wouldn’t be so sure of that.

Amazing ending to the game. Suarez is a hero.

I cam in to say. HAHA BYE BRAZIL! I’m glad they’re gone!

Not like goalies aren’t under pressure either.

You got 4 corners to shoot at and the middle, pick one and chill the fuck out. Stressing isn’t gonna do any good at that time.

:lol: Good shit.

They are going to erect a statue in his home town now that he is a national hero

i caught the last part of the game on the radio while i was running some errands so i dnd’t even see the handball. i just watched a clip of it and that is some good shit right there. somewhere david sirlin is standing up and applauding. [media=youtube]hwq_y1yQZ_s&feature=player_embedded[/media]

Let’s go Holland. Fuck Suarez.

vuvuzela vs dog [media=youtube]Gqv4Vviod0c[/media]

^ ahha saw that on Failblog xD Hilarious; I think he wanted to poop though.

But man; Hard to believe Brazil lost against Netherlands. I know Netherlands is good but wow.
So I guess it’s going to be Uruguay vs Netherlands right?

Tomorrow is the game I’m waiting for.
Germany vs. Argentina

Messi is going to have trouble now :p.

As for the Ghana vs Uruguay game. That penalty kick was the game winning kick. Why would he pull off something that risky?

It’s either let the goal in or throw your hands up and take the penalty kick. One leads to certain defeat, the other leads to a 50 percent chance of defeat. Absolutely nothing wrong with what he did.

It’s akin to intentionally fouling someone on a breakaway layup that wins the game in basketball or pass interference on a surefire touchdown in football.

Yah, I had to explain to a bunch of dummies I was with that it was the only logical thing to do in that situation. Game was about to end…why wouldn’t you take the red card? lol

Sad that Brazil didn’t play as hard in the second half. I don’t want the Netherlands in the finals for my own selfish reasons. Argentina better win this shit.

Man i fuckin rage when somebody sais what Suarez did was “cheating”. Thats what the fuckin cards are for! If there were no cards for handballing and players were expected to not handball through a honor system then yeah he cheated. But what he did was clearly inside the system and he got punished for it. Thankfully for him Gyan missed what should have been a game winner.

REAL men win whateva the cost. Pussys stay home jerkin off to themselves saying “well at least i was honorable”

Yes.

As Jammar said: David Sirlin is Uruguay’s defense coach. Cause they play to win.

im still riding wit spain, but i am down for holland…they are my heroes.

holland did some expert cheating to beat brazil, which is fair play. the irst few minutes brazil were making holland look like nothing

as for ghana- ghana should of won, nerves got to them, just like what happened to brazil

I was at Wings in downtown Vancouver when the madness of Uruguay vs. Ghana was on. The pub went NUTS.

Dr. B would’ve deliberately handled the ball too.

:rofl: U mad? Me thinks u mad.

Three games suspension for a handball? So, handballs are now in the same vein as bone-breaking aggressions? :rolleyes:

Fuck whatever “romantic” idea you have of “fair play” and that shit. Suarez did what he had to do to at least give his team a last chance. He paid for his stunt too with the red card. He simply took one for the team, and his gamble paid off.

Was Suarez also responsible for Gyan missing that penalty shot? Or those other 2 blunders during the penalty shootout? Yeah, didn’t think so…

Anyway, I don’t see Uruguay getting to the finals without Suarez, but hey, at least Uruguay has something to celebrate after so many years… Regardless of your “ideals”.
