Day 23: Netherlands vs. Argentina

[Browniee]

Boring first half. Both teams need to up the tempo

 

[pseudo_canadian]

This game is destined for either a 83rd minute winner by Messi or penalties.

 

[JohnDoe]

Why do all the Argentina players have one black armband except Messi who has decided to put one on each arm? Looks a bit strange...

Maybe he's really sad.

 

[Niall]

Another smiling yellow.

He's a happy chap at heart!

 

[RedDevil-85]

Alot of passing backwards

 

[032Devil]

Hence the look...

Though I do believe he's mostly just caving to a lot of Messi's demands in style of play. Not necessarily a bad thing to do but effectively putting all your eggs in one basket if that is the case.

No doubt you've heard that from the media. Doesn't make it true

 

[amolbhatia50k]

Netherlands have been boring.

 

[Mersault]

Dutch midfield too slow in transition

 

[ottosec]

Is Indi out of the final?

 

[rimaldo]

This ref has a red card in him.

strange, if it were me i'd probably just keep it in my pocket instead.

 

[Reddevilboy]

This has 0-0 written all over it.

 

[Fiftyone]

Well this was boring. Not surprised at all though. Pretty much every game with Argentina has looked like this.

 

[Massive Spanner]

any time.

it's a thing that means you get to wear an armband, which may or may not contain magical powers.

Oh right so like the ones heroin addicts use

 

[JohnDoe]

Is Indi out of the final?

Yellows don't give a ban for final.

 

[Annahnomoss]

Indi really needs to be subbed or they need to do something as Lavezzi keeps getting through on his side and now he has to hold back as well to not get a red.

 

[Nash27]

I just realized this is the referee that sent off nani in that CL game. freakin hell how did he get to ref a world cup semi final.

 

[Dobba]

This has 0-0 written all over it.

To set up a Triple Threat Cage Match Final.

 

[R.N7]

Thanks.

What is a 'captain'?

The steerer duh

 

[amolbhatia50k]

Good by messi. Rojo with terrible delivery.

 

[rimaldo]

Oh right so like the ones heroin addicts use

yeah, though those ones come with the power of drugs.

 

[Fiftyone]

strange, if it were me i'd probably just keep it in my pocket instead.

Yeah, the other way sounds painful.

 

[milan4ever]

Rojo played a shit cross, wasted a good opportunity

 

[Rado_N]

This is going to penalties.

 

[032Devil]

Cagey first half

 

[Mr. Meeseeks]

The Dutch resorting to long ball tactics. Absolutely no midfield presence. Argentina have got it covered out wide, no way of getting it through. Needs to change formation 2nd half.

 

[TheShedEnd]

feck off Holland, so boring.

 

[gofelx]

Booooring

 

[Hed Zitin]

Blind was dreadful.

Perez looks a player.

 

[Drifter]

Argies slightly the better team . Don't know what people was expecting.

 

[Stack]

Absorbing game

 

[Reddevilboy]

I really hope the ref doesn't dish out any red card. It will ruin the game.

 

[2E_MUFC]

Just realised the ref is that twat who sent Nani off against Real Madrid

 

[Archie Leach]

Lavezzi's been lively. Otherwise, yawn.

 

[Dylan94]

I said this one would go all the way. And it certainly looks that way so far.

 

[Lyricist]

ughhhh

 

[Drifter]

Holland look knackered.

 

[IBleedRed]

Oh God I just noticed who the ref is
How did he get to be in this tournament let alone such a huge game?

 

[jojojo]

Argentina looking the likelier team to score. Messi getting enough action to suggest that sometime soon a real chance will come up.

So, do Holland have a response.

 

[Ish]

strange, if it were me i'd probably just keep it in my pocket instead.

ffs rim

 

[Reddevilboy]

Just realised the ref is that twat who sent Nani off against Real Madrid

Jesus no wonder I find his name so familiar!
