Day 14: Netherlands vs USA | Argentina vs Australia (Last 16 1&2)

[Statue of Limitations]

USA also got a jam on toast goal around 75th min to go 1-2, mad coincidence.

 

[MUnchies]

Wow. Is it me or is E. Martinez always concedes a deflected goal 2-1 game on?

 

[kouroux]

xG in this game will be funny

 

[VivaJesperBlomqvist]

Well, Ronaldo is more cynical about being past it, now he doesn't care about playing well as soon as he scores a tap-in.

This is why I believe he will play until his early 40s, he is all about individual records, and doesn't care much about the rest...in 10 years he is gonna be worried if Haaland and Mbappe come close to his CL record, might even come out of retirement in his early 50s, just to try to prevent his record to be taken.

He’s a psychopath tbh. I used to respect it, but now I think it’s pathological.

 

[Withnail]

That aged well!!

Except it was a massive deflection and complete fluke so the point still stands.

 

[That_Bloke]

What was that deflection ?

 

[edcunited1878]

Wicked deflection after a flailing leg clearance by Otamendi goes nowhere.

 

[kouroux]

Tagliafico is hopeless, Messi keeps looking at him to make a run but he is static

 

[avgp_1]

That aged well!!

That was a chance?

 

[FootballHQ]

Wow. Is it me or is E. Martinez always concedes a deflected goal 2-1 game on?

Was exactly the same as the one you scored at Villa Park a few weeks back!

 

[Gehrman]

Awesome deflected goal

 

[Massive Spanner]

Frank Lampard with a screamer!!

 

[Kaos]

Do these Aussie players know Movember is over?

 

[That_Bloke]

He’s a psychopath tbh. I used to respect it, but now I think it’s pathological.

 

[jungledrums]

There is no chance Australia get a second

 

[hellhunter]

Subbing on a Bayer Leverkusen player when holding on to a lead is ballsy

 

[VivaJesperBlomqvist]

Is it just me or does all these Argentinians look the same..

100% just you. It’s an ethnically diverse nation.

 

[kouroux]

OMG

 

[Andycoleno9]

He’s a psychopath tbh. I used to respect it, but now I think it’s pathological.

Yup. He has some mental issues for sure

 

[SamVimes]

That was a chance?

Where did the ball end up?

 

[The Firestarter]

Good grief

 

[hellhunter]

That solo was more Messi than Messi's earlier

 

[saivet]

Nearly a great goal, wow

 

[Gehrman]

They have created chances this half, not many


But Messi isn't retiring, there is a difference.

No but retiring from European football is more or less the same legacy wise.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Our lad with last ditch block.

 

[Rustyspider13]

Holy hell the LB almost redeemed himself.

 

[Tom Van Persie]

What a run. Licha with an incredible tackle.

 

[CloneMC16]

Licha doing what he does best.

 

[Dudu]

Holy feck.

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Good job they’ve got one decent defender

 

[Offside]

Ahhhh you should have finished that!!! What a run

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

Nearly an all time goal from Aus.

 

[Reditus]

USA also got a jam on toast goal around 75th min to go 1-2, mad coincidence.

You’re right, very similar circumstances

 

[Statue of Limitations]

So close to one of the all time world cup goals, unlucky lad.

 

[DJ_21]

What a run that was… and of course it’s our man with the last second challenge.

 

[Scarlett Dracarys]

Against Australia after only 50 minutes? That's negative, simple as that.

You were saying?

 

[2mufc0]

Is Messi playing for Argentina now? Incredible run!

 

[IFC 1905]

THE BUTCHER

 

[Dazzmondo]

Oh wow! The Ozzy Messi nearly scored a screamer!

 

[SamVimes]

Except it was a massive deflection and complete fluke so the point still stands.

Where did the ball end up?
