Round of 16 | Switzerland vs Italy | Germany vs Denmark

[thisisnottaken1]

They should skip the halftime, just keep on playing till minute 90

Honestly, I actually agree with that.

good luck getting germans working on a sunday. someone would need to submit a request to the worker’s council, who will then ask why it has to be a sunday.

As a norwegian I can relate

 

[TheReligion]

Sadly I think you overestimate my ability to pull

Lynx Africa has had a resurgence i thought?

 

[Sassy Colin]

Got to feel sorry for the players, having Oliver as the ref.

[Vidyoyo]

Say what you want but under an unnamed historic german political regime this match would have finished on time

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

Whaaaaat?

Resumed.

 

[rimaldo]

I agree with you that clearing the stadium here was the right call.

The US is very different though, in that a lot of your stadia don’t have a roof.

plus they’re all pussies and unlikely to shrug off a direct lightning strike, as a tough european would.

 

[thisisnottaken1]

Game’s back on. That was an interesting period of 25 (?) minutes.

 

[Vidyoyo]

I like how the reporter shoved a mic in his face whilst on the verge of passing out

anything for the gram

 

[AfonsoAlves]

There’s no reason whatsoever to play through a lightning storm.

In the U.S. we clear the field & stadium if lightning is within 10 miles & you can’t resume play until 30 minutes has passed since the last strike.

What you’re suggesting is begging for someone to die

Explain *how* please.

Lightning targets over a 100-500sqm radius upon direct point of elevation downwards that has the highest electrical potential. V = kg⋅m2⋅s−3⋅A−1 to specifically calculate that.

can you explain how it's physically possible for a non-metallic actor (a human) with a minute amount of mass compared to say, a giant metallic structure (the top of the stadium).

This is literally proven with a Tesla coil. You can stand in a middle of an artifical electronic storm and watch as the lightning strikes around you but it will actively avoid you because the other objects around have so much more electric potential.

 

[hellhunter]

Another very soft call

Clive said the trains don’t run on time

 

[Catt]

Oh Olly

 

[Pronewbie]

Great pressing by Hojlund. Very soft call there.

 

[diarm]

That’s just never a freekick.

 

[kouroux]

Havertz isn't a striker

 

[The Firestarter]

Havertzz massive miss

 

[Catt]

Damn. Wake up Denmark

 

[Pronewbie]

It's not going to be Germany's night is it.

 

[AfonsoAlves]

Jonathan Richter

This is where he was playing. Sorry but this is not a 80m high metallic superstructure.

 

[Juice Juiced]

Peter son is still solid

 

[Hester_manc]

Michael Oliver is such a poor ref

 

[GhastlyHun]

Schmeichel channeling his dad's 1988 spirit

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

What a save by Shmeichel!

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Damn. Wake up Denmark

It's like they have restarted the game from the beginning. Germany on top then.

 

[AfonsoAlves]

You have no idea what you're talking about. You simply don't.

There's ignorant posts & then there's yours.

Prove how its possible with physics.

 

[ShinjiNinja26]

Michael Oliver is such a poor ref

It’s a sad state of affairs when he’s considered the best the PL has to offer.

 

[Vidyoyo]

There appears to be a football game interrupting the weather update

 

[GDaly95]

I think we should suspend the match between AlfonsoAlves and everyone else on the caf.

 

[kouroux]

Wtf, that ain't no FK

 

[hellhunter]

What is that call by Oliver

 

[Carolina Red]

I thought you just shoot the clouds until the threat has been neutralized?

We tried that, didn’t work.

 

[GhastlyHun]

That's awful

 

[Sassy Colin]

feck me, Oliver is a shit ref.

 

[Maagge]

How is that a free kick?!

 

[Vidyoyo]

I think we should suspend the match between AlfonsoAlves and everyone else on the caf.

I meant to get up during all that to put a pizza in the oven but it was too amusing reading all that

 

[rimaldo]

“lightning kills, bitch.”

[hellhunter]

Oliver is giving Denmark nothing

 

[calodo2003]

Dork out with your physics, bro. I'd rather be safe. Been through too many lightning strikes just above my head to learn not to trifle with it.
