that Italy counter + volley + save is the second best second of football this tournament will see
― imago, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 19:40 (four years ago) link
that italy counter was so lovely
― oscar bravo, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 19:41 (four years ago) link
xp
having any football tournament starting with a number of teams which ensures that you need to advance some 3rd place group teams into the knockout rounds is fucking stupid
― oscar bravo, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 19:47 (four years ago) link
So great to see Italy, on the back of a breakthrough season for their league, show off this level of play, doing fun stuff, already through to the knockouts

xp. true. though neither of my teams would've qualified if it was smaller and surely the experience for the smaller teams will be helpful? (maybe not, getting gubbed repeatedly might be bad)

yep xxp

cracking wee lofted through ball by marta there
― findom haddie (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:27 (four years ago) link
that is an absolute joke decision
― imago, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:28 (four years ago) link
eh?
― findom haddie (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:29 (four years ago) link
fuck penaltyball, fuck these refs
― imago, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:30 (four years ago) link
16 penalties in 30 games. Well done Marta though.
― ShariVari, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:31 (four years ago) link
honestly thought that was a penalty, looked soft on initial viewing but played the woman not the ball and barged into her, it's a penalty
― findom haddie (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:32 (four years ago) link
One of the less controversial ones imo.
― ShariVari, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:33 (four years ago) link
side to side challenge with the Italian in front, I just can't buy it
― imago, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:33 (four years ago) link
these refs ffs ffs
and the idiot co-commentator 'thats a late challenge' no it was perfectly timed, what are you on
― imago, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:39 (four years ago) link
Kerr x 4 in the other game.
― ShariVari, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:40 (four years ago) link
Jesus, horror show of a goal given away by the Jamaican keeper there. Australia's centre forward has scored all 4.
― Orpheus Knutt (Tom D.), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:41 (four years ago) link
(xp)
eh, passback
― findom haddie (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 20:42 (four years ago) link
not given of course lol
just saw the brazil penalty decision again. absolute nonsense. the italian player is in front and uses her body in a sideways challenge. so many absurdly soft penalties are ruining this tournament
― imago, Wednesday, 19 June 2019 10:22 (four years ago) link
or did i miss a memo where the shoulder challenge is no longer legal
― imago, Wednesday, 19 June 2019 10:25 (four years ago) link
it is if it's shoulder to shoulder within playing distance to the ball with arms by your side.
the actual challenge in question is shoulder to chest with the ball to far forward for either player to reach

Kudos to Argentina for stealing Scotland’s kit.
― ShariVari, Wednesday, 19 June 2019 19:11 (four years ago) link
ha, slightly ridic, why not have them both in their iconic home kits? altho both these away kits are nice tbh
― findom haddie (jim in vancouver), Wednesday, 19 June 2019 19:14 (four years ago) link
Well that was a random England goal. But it worked!
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 19 June 2019 19:16 (four years ago) link
good pass, good finish
england or the usa will win this whole thing
― imago, Wednesday, 19 June 2019 19:17 (four years ago) link
Good match! Scotland lead.
― ShariVari, Wednesday, 19 June 2019 19:20 (four years ago) link
Dying at the auld lad looking completely disgruntled at the Scottish goal. Possibly thinking, that us?
― govussy blues (gyac), Wednesday, 19 June 2019 20:06 (four years ago) link
3-0 Scotland. We're gonnae win the cup.
― Orpheus Knutt (Tom D.), Wednesday, 19 June 2019 20:26 (four years ago) link

― Orpheus Knutt (Tom D.), Wednesday, 19 June 2019 20:36 (four years ago) link
VAR surely
― ShariVari, Wednesday, 19 June 2019 20:43 (four years ago) link
Maybe a tiny touch on the ball
oh god
― findom haddie (jim in vancouver), Wednesday, 19 June 2019 20:43 (four years ago) link
xp if that's not a pen on that basis then VAR is a portal into bizarro world at this point
