World Cup 2018 FIFA World Cup-Group D Thread (Argentina, Iceland, Croatia, Nigeria)

[David Schwarz]

Messi’s in the middle again ffs

Stick him on the right and put Dybala in the hole

 

[Jatz]

That’s a penalty.

 

[dwwaino]

More in that than Risdon's....

 

[typeclub]

He isn’t liked in Argentina because of a few quiet qualifiers

Ridiculous that that sentiment filters up to the managers, but that’s the way it is I guess

Apparently Messi doesn't want to play with him

 

[ep2018]

I can definitely see Iceland being the Costa Rica of this years Cup.

 

[HawkMongrel]

Excellent call ref.

Pavon made that contact.

 

[RossFC]

There was contact but I don't think there was enough. More of a pen than Frances though.

 

[David Schwarz]

Its really because Messi doesn't want to play with him

Heard that before, not convinced

I had to endure a 70 minute text rant from an Argentine friend of mine where she basically accused Dybala and his supposed mentality of being the reason why they lost the Falklands War

Changes perspective

 

[David Schwarz]

Atmosphere so far through the whole tournament has been brilliant

 

[Wolfs]

Damn that was close

 

[RossFC]

Have Argentina ever done a front 4 of

Aguero
Di Maria-Dybala-Messi
with 2 CDMS behind?

 

[David Schwarz]

Should have been a foul

When have they changed the rule on shoulderbarges to that of the 80’s?

 

[David Schwarz]

Have Argentina ever done a front 4 of

Aguero
Di Maria-Dybala-Messi
with 2 CDMS behind?

They would have, but without any recognisable backline, so that would have been canned for no fault of their own

Salvio is playing RB

 

[Wolfs]

Yeah no Dybala today

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Interesting call by commentator that every game so far in the WC has seen a goal in the last 10 minutes.

Hopefully Iceland can get one and really shake things up.

 

[typeclub]

Wow Messi sub yourself

 

[David Schwarz]

So Messi has to be on the wing now with Higuain on

Could get interesting

 

[Wolfs]

What a save

 

[giggler99]

I hope a lot of refs are watching this polish ref he’s not whistle happy not taking any crap and let a lot of the 50/50 stuff go.

 

[Tyler Durden007]

OOOOOOoooo that was going in!

 

[David Schwarz]

Higuain on the right wing

What on earth is Sampaoli playing at?

 

[RossFC]

What a save!

 

[Wolfs]

Dude isn't going to stay at Randers for long.

 

[dwwaino]

Some game from Halldorsson.

I hope a lot of ref are watching this polish ref he’s not whistle happy not taking any crap and let a lot of the 50/50 stuff go.

Looks like he's ready to punch anyone who back chats him.

Finnboga's kid has gone down
