[silk cloak]

Banger game

Atleast second half is

Rip Denmark

[rustic horizon]

any predictions for arg mex

[silver creek]

Mex 2-1

[rustic horizon]

Bold but respectable

[wicked vessel]

1-0 arg

[silver creek]

the much more sensible prediction

[rustic horizon]

The amount of people I’ve seen praying on Messi’s downfall is wild lol

[scenic umbra]

I picked Argentina for cod voting

But want Argentina to lose

So I’m conflicted

Let’s just say England and Argentina aren’t in best terms

[rustic horizon]

I feel like you could make that a mad libs and it would always work

England and ______ aren’t in best terms

[silver creek]

true

[meager pier]

Are they still arguing over the Falklands? That was so 20 years ago

[scenic umbra]

Think so

Argentina ain’t happy still

Uk kinda just ignores them by the seems

I personally can’t stand the messi narrative though

All I hear is winning the World Cup his 1000th game and shit

Like holy fuck I don’t care 😭

[rustic horizon]

Idc about that but he is indisputably one of the best players to play football and even though he’s likely past his prime seeing him win a wc in general would be historic

I’m all about anything historic happening. France winning is just boring

[wooden aurora]

Alright lets fight

[rustic horizon]

argentina doubling the poss% of mexico but only having 1 shot to mexico's 3 is a bit

lemme see them out of the box cracks. fuck it just take a chance

[scenic umbra]

Man messi is playing terrible

God what an undeserved goal

[silver creek]

aight now just 2 Mexico goals and I'm prediction god

[rustic horizon]

lmfao

[wicked vessel]

aight keep it like this

gimme that prediction W

[rustic horizon]

also what is this take lol

how is it undeserved. he placed it bottom corner pretty well

i'd understand if it were like someone drew a pen and then messi took the pen but this seemed pretty cut and dry: just superb placement with good power. 2 touches outside the box and the defender wasnt near enough to close him down

[wicked vessel]

yeah but he hates messi so, undeserved

[scenic umbra]

Its undeserved because argentina have been dreadful?

they dont deserve a goal

[rustic horizon]

[scenic umbra]

good goal

but doesnt mean argentina deserve the lead

havent played like it at all

but I guess that's what messi gives you

bails out a shit performance

something mexico don't have

[rustic horizon]

i think we literally all knew that was going to be the case. thats why i prefaced argentina's involvement in the world cup as "Messi and friends"

[scenic umbra]

Yeah like overall I'm not taking anything away from the ACTUAL GOAL

[rustic horizon]

right

just all the stuff leading to it was meh

[scenic umbra]

Just feels a bit rough for mexico as there isn't a lot they can do about something like that and they have defended fairly okay

But atleast livens up the game

[rustic horizon]

if you're not closing down messi for 90 straight minutes, are you really defending okay

[scenic umbra]

Tbf that's something they were doing all game

till that point

[rustic horizon]

so 63 straight minutes

:)

[scenic umbra]

I mean there's a reason everyone was shitting on him at half time

half time was crucial for them by the seems though

But yeah this is grim

[silk cloak]

damn

crazy goal

[scenic umbra]

welp

2-0 tv off time to games

mexico aint doing shit

[wicked vessel]

gol gol gol

[scenic umbra]

went for a low block and paid the price when they conceded

slow game

but apparently its 33 degrees in the stadium

so yeah understandable

[wicked vessel]

[worldly karma]

DAMN JAPAN

[undone shuttle]

i dont really get why dead/wasted time prior to 90 minutes gets tacked on at the end, but then seemingly wasting time during the extra time just amounts to nothing and is fine

[silk cloak]

LETS GOOOOOOOOO

OFFSIDE

[winged adder]

@silk cloak you doin okay

[wicked vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/smh-laughable-seriously-commentator-gif-5357322

If Finland made it they prob would’ve beat Spain

[wicked vessel]

no spain looked good forgot them

wdym

[winged adder]

Wild tourney. Bad rated teams are good

Finland bad

[silk cloak]

😢

GG

[scenic umbra]

Belgium

That’s what they get for subbing hazard

[silk cloak]

Well some people are happy in my neighbourhood

[runic shore]

Canada at one minute

[scenic umbra]

1:07 goal

[rustic horizon]

That’s a common misconception because it is not announced or displayed for the viewers. However, any delay of game that occurs during stoppage time will usually amount to even more stoppage time that is not represented by the original amount. So say players play the full 90 and it is announced that there will be 4 minutes of stoppage time. If multiple fouls or substitutions occur within those 4 minutes, the referee can keep the game going to roughly approximate that extra time and tack it on top of the original planned 4 minutes.

This is why it’s not uncommon to see the game play out to 95 or 96 minutes even when the stoppage time was only 4 (in that hypothetical)

[undone shuttle]

ok well in teh japan game there was 6 minutes of stoppage time with a good 100 seconds wasted and then it was stopped at like 96:05

costa rica even used a sub to have someone slowly walk off the field as time was ticking and still 96:05

[rustic horizon]

Its unfortunately at the discretion of the referee in particular

It’s one of those rules that is quite muddied with no definitive answer beyond the referee is the sole decider of when games end so long as the game has met the minimum 90+initial stoppage.

If a team has tempo and is building play despite being at the end of stoppage time, the referee can still choose to allow play to go on and give that team one final chance at a goal. It’s all discretionary.

It’s similar to baseball in the sense that the umpire has dictator-like standing on the field. If he decides that a ball is a strike when it wasn’t, it can’t be argued. If the ref in the World Cup decides to cut play short ignoring the wasted time during stoppage time, it can’t be argued. Officiating is unfortunate sometimes.

[scenic umbra]

1-1!

[silk cloak]

exciting group

[undone shuttle]

another really strange thing with this was one game (i forgot which) the attacking team had a throw in like roughly level with the penalty box in terms of distance from goal

and then they just stopped the game which my understanding was like... they should stop it when the ball is neutral

but maybe at the high level a throw in from that spot isn't even considered a threat

yeah i think the dictator level power of ref/umpires is very antiquated and shouldn't be a thing but thats probably the most luke warm take of all time

[scenic umbra]

Happens a lot tbf

Pretty sure it is based on if it’s a possible opportunity to score a goal

But I don’t know the exact ruling

[undone shuttle]

ye to my noob eye that wouldve been an opportunity was my point i guess

[rustic horizon]

i dont think i understood the set up you were explaining, but if blood understood it and answered you then great

[silk cloak]

1-1!

clean game

[silk cloak]

crazy game

2-3

[wicked vessel]

3-3

[silk cloak]

WTFFF

this game man

[wicked vessel]

Draw is better for Serbia than Cameroon

Serbia hasn't played Switzerland Cameroon hasn't played Brazil

[silk cloak]

ya

game could have been 6-6

[rose stone]

any good games to watch today?

[wicked vessel]

Both upcoming ones

[silk cloak]

the comeback

omg

@rose stone you should have been watching previous and current game

[wicked vessel]

Holy shit SK

Crazy

[rose stone]

I woke up too late @silk cloak

I saw some of the sk ghana game after half time insane they came back from 0-2

[meager pier]

Any gamba on Croatia beating Belgium?

[ivory wave]

MY COUNTRY

Ez clappers

See u guys on quarters

[silent moss]

portugal gets another free penal

[ivory wave]

whatever

was already won

and bruno sent one to the post

[rustic horizon]

@scenic umbra big day for group B

[scenic umbra]

The Sheep shaggers vs the brexiteers
and
The middle east vs the US

Some spicy ones

[rustic horizon]

US has to go hard today to make it out of groups, otherwise it’s game over for them.

What would be interesting though is if Iran holds US to a draw and Wales somehow beats England, because then England, Iran, and Wales would all share 4 points. The main tie break for group stage is goal difference. Since Iran and wales are currently tied for a GD of -2, Wales would come out on top ahead of Iran by beating England and increasing their GD whereas in this situation Iran would be the same at -2 because draw with US.

Good news for you is that england is through no matter what, although I imagine you’re hoping for 1B as opposed to 2B

[scenic umbra]

Endgland need to lose by 4 goals so were fine

Not a chance wales scores even 2

[rustic horizon]

yea thats what i meant about england going through no matter what

barring some impossible performance from wales, anyway

much more realistic is england wins and either us draws (iran advances) or us wins (us advances)

[scenic umbra]

Man

Iran arent bad either

so US vs Iran is gonna be a good game I think

[rustic horizon]

they're not bad at all. odds arent on their side, but we've seen teams beat the odds already in group stage

since this game decides who goes on, i think both teams are gonna play their hearts out

quite excited for an hour from now

[rustic horizon]

any bets on the iran us game

tim ream is a savior

[scenic umbra]

ffs

need an iran equalizer

[rustic horizon]

dog get up

you scored

[half silo]

so close

[rustic horizon]

foden doin foden things in the other game

my heart dropped

[rustic horizon]

i think it would be really fun and great to play 80 minutes of attacking football and then start giving up free kicks. hell lets give up a pen like last time

[rustic horizon]

REAAMMMMMM

stop

stop no

man that was a fuckin scrappy game

Iran played so well

[meager pier]

US plays Netherlands? Aren't the Dutch washed like most of Europe soccer

[rustic horizon]

well they beat Senegal who is doing quite well, tied with Ecuador who played a really good game that day, and smashed Qatar. they are by no means a walkover. the reason the US was able to get through groups is because they play good attacking football, but they struggle to convert chances. Netherlands with Halland is not going to have that same issue.

idk what the official odds are, but I'd wager its in NL's favor

the google stats page puts NL win at 51%, a draw at 28%, and a US win at 21%

[wooden aurora]

HAALAND HAALAND HAAALAND HAAAAALAND

[silver creek]

LETS GO SOCCEROOS

[rustic horizon]

They just need a draw to advance right

[silver creek]

yessir

well unless France loses

[wicked vessel]

[silver creek]

[silver creek]

Fuck that was close

Nearly there lads

WE’VE FUCKING DONE IT

[scenic umbra]

#1043344850256400536 message

[scenic umbra]

Australia > germany rn

[silver creek]

@half silo

Also Australia > Denmark

[scenic umbra]

Based

[silver creek]

So basically just Australia > Europe

[scenic umbra]

Woah

[silver creek]

France just got lucky

Actually we beat Tunisia and Tunisia beat France

So yeah

Australia > Europe

[scenic umbra]

England left the EU

so I approve this message

[half silo]

Still a chance

But tbf they don’t deserve to get out of groups so whatever

[worldly karma]

@silver creek

[silk cloak]

As a fan of a lot of belgium players

thats rough

hazard, KDB, Courtois etc

[silk cloak]

they played really good last 20 minutes but lukaku is a just a big fumble

[scenic umbra]

Tbf you havent got great forwards

Lukaku or batshuayi

theyre the only out and out's you have

[silk cloak]

yeah big rip

[scenic umbra]

Both former chelsea

https://tenor.com/view/daladada-cat-crying-cry-scream-gif-24748831

[silver creek]

They can still make it out

[half silo]

yeah its really easy

either win 8:0 or 2:0 when spain draws

[silver creek]

Or if you win and Spain wins

[silk cloak]

GO JAPAN

even though its not gonna happen

[half silo]

Ok we going full copium now boys

[rustic horizon]

so how does germany make it out of groups? they have to win against CR and if Japan ties Spain then Germany has to go up by 2 goals

good luck with your copium sir

[silver creek]

Ye but if Spain wins it’s just win and you’re through

[rustic horizon]

true enough

[silver creek]

We almost didn’t make it out cuz Tunisia beat France at this point I think just about anything can happen lol

[half silo]

It’s not even that unlikely

If we win we can make it

Right now we good

[silk cloak]

rip japan

[silk cloak]

YOOOOOOOOOOOOO

JAPAN

2-1

[silver creek]

@half silo in shambles

[silk cloak]

BEST OF TIMELINES

[undone shuttle]

wait what is the lore here

both of these games are going on at the same time and if both germany and japan both win then it comes down to who wins by more?

[silk cloak]

spain goes through then

spain has more goals than germany

[undone shuttle]

this is up to date right

[silk cloak]

yes that is before the current game

[undone shuttle]

oh ok nvm i saw a wrong graphic or misread it at a glance

[silk cloak]

OH

costa rica scored

if costa rica wins

then spain is out

LMAO

[half silo]

Bro

[undone shuttle]

wtf

why are these games on at the same time

[half silo]

I cheer for Costa Rica now

[undone shuttle]

this is too insane

[half silo]

Spain and Germany out would be hilarious

[silk cloak]

so theres no match fixing

[undone shuttle]

oh like spain potentially losing on purpose to guarantee gerrmany out? or that kind of thing

[silk cloak]

the group winner has to go vs the second place in a different group*

[half silo]

Yeah this and deciding which place you go in groups

[silk cloak]

so imagine if second place from diff group is a super good team then you might want to lose

[undone shuttle]

ok yeye makes sense

[half silo]

Like Spain said they don’t give it all bc they don’t want to face the second place

[silk cloak]

and now its biting them hard in the ass

[half silo]

And if they go second they play marocco

[silver creek]

Who they play if they go first

[half silo]

Croatia i think

[silver creek]

Ah fair

[half silo]

Which is arguably harder than marocco

[silver creek]

Bro I watched the Canada vs Morocco game highlights

Wtf was that keeper doing

[half silo]

[undone shuttle]

these games are so much more fun with high stakes

seems like u can tell the players are more desperate/frantic vs the earlier in the group stages games i was watching

[silk cloak]

you should watch the games after groupphase

shit gets crazy then

esp penalties

theres a reason why worldcup is most watched event in the world

[silver creek]

Having both at the same time is so wild as well

[silk cloak]

Germany is winning again noooooooo

[silver creek]

All for nothing if Spain loses

[silk cloak]

Tbh US won't win a world cup in any of our life times but God would it be nice to see them get to a place where getting out of group place just isn't good enough any more

Like that's been their same goal for ever just make it out of group play

But pulisic ain't it

the powers of god and anime extend only to the group stage. in knockouts, the only god on the pitch is Mbappe

[silver creek]

I was thinking they'd go for the 8-0

[half silo]

To get rid of the pain?

[silver creek]

make themselves feel a bit better

exactly ya

[half silo]

Yeah fair enough

[silver creek]

then whenever they have PTSD they can go well at least it wasn't 8-0

[undone shuttle]

[wicked vessel]

[undone shuttle]

[wicked vessel]

Nah

They did some subs and proly more coming

Tempo has been turned down a bit

Ronaldo bench

We actually have a decent striker

And we can actually play as 11

what a routine

[meager pier]

am I about to be 2/2 on PK predictions?

[scenic umbra]

Need a second messi yellow before pens

ref would never do it tho

[silver creek]

He’d never be safe to visit South America

Oof that was nearly a banger

[meager pier]

PKs again?

[silver creek]

[meager pier]

holy fuck I am psychic

[scenic umbra]

ffs

[silver creek]

Oh no

They’ve borrowed the Croatian goalkeeper

[scenic umbra]

God i hope messi gets a pulled hamstring

ugly, short and cocky

three bad attributes

[silver creek]

[winged adder]

oh no

the stroopwafles aren't going to win

[meager pier]

sounds like you're talking about the South American Sikte

[winged adder]

this isn't good for my fantasy

[scenic umbra]

acutally mental argentina get a chance to win the game

when they shouldve had two sent off

[meager pier]

im 2/2 on PK predictions today

I am psychic

[exotic mural]

I'm happy if netherlands loses, maybe people will freak out about the world cup less

[scenic umbra]

Missed to keep it going for the entertainment

but theyre still winning

[winged adder]

"NETHERLANDS HAVE PLAYED IN MORE FINALS THAN ANY NATION BUT HAVE NEVER WON"

[rustic horizon]

[tawny falcon]

Bye

[silver creek]

What are you thinking about cutie

[meager pier]

Sikte

[scenic umbra]

Zzzzzzz

What a horrible quarter man

jfc

[silver creek]

Shame cuz precious slapped

[rustic horizon]

so who we got for tomorrow

anyone betting on morocco

[silver creek]

Ofc

2-1

[winged adder]

[silver creek]

And shock result in the France - England game they both lose

[rustic horizon]

im secretly hoping for an arg v por finals

just so everyone can shut the fuck up and we can see messi v ronaldo one last time in our lifetimes

[winged adder]

im secretly hoping for england vs argentina

and argentina to lose

and it comes home

[rustic horizon]

never that

[winged adder]

mostly cause i have a bet on that

[rustic horizon]

bad bet

[winged adder]

good bet

[rustic horizon]

england is the king of choking

[silver creek]

Croatia wins on pens to win the World Cup and then their GK gets a blowjob on the pitch

[rustic horizon]

sorry

the queen of choking

[silver creek]

@rustic horizon thoughts

[rustic horizon]

i mean if croatia has any chance of winning the cup from what weve seen its in pens

that gk is an absolute behemoth on the line

alternatively to arg por finals, id be potentially even happier with croatia morocco finals. destroy everyone's bets. filthy gamblers.

[scenic umbra]

That's like the worst thing that could happen

[rustic horizon]

why

[scenic umbra]

You want everyone to shut up about the conversation but all you'll get is debate at an even higher level

[rustic horizon]

yes

[scenic umbra]

Best scenario is both argentina and portugal bomb out

[rustic horizon]

no

[scenic umbra]

So fanboys can stop crying

im tired of it

[rustic horizon]

dog you just spent the past 2 hours talking shit about messi lmao

[scenic umbra]

Yeah BECAUSE of his fans

theyre fucking driving me up the walls

[rustic horizon]

[scenic umbra]

its omega cringe

I want them both out
