Saint NL Posted July 5 Posted July 5 This angle shows the Norwegian touched the ball. It's still a penalty, but why wasn't the ref shown this angle? And didn't the snicko thing confirm "no touch"? It's all just a bit flakey 1
Saint NL Posted July 5 Posted July 5 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/clyeegldnmpo Chances of the England game kicking off at 1am?

Saint_clark Posted July 5 Posted July 5 Don't know why people are happy, if we get thrown through then Norway will be a much tougher test than Brazil. In fact I think Norway knock us out. 1
Saint NL Posted July 5 Posted July 5 Just now, whelk said: Far better for England to face Norway………. I think Extra incentive for the England players before the big game tonight

The Kraken Posted July 5 Posted July 5 3 minutes ago, whelk said: Far better for England to face Norway………. I think Not sure. This Brazil team are absolutely nothing like the quality of what’s gone before them. Norway are well organised and have some proper quality too. 1

Although disagree tougher than Brazil I was going to write exactly that. In the world cup, Europe first for me (and Norway is a lovely country).

Stripey McStripe Shirt Posted July 5 Posted July 5 He's a cyborg of some sort, surely? Is that robot that delivered the match ball at half time his twin? 2
Dark Munster Posted July 5 Posted July 5 I love his ho hum shoulder shrug celebration! Why didn’t he choose to play for England. Sob
SNSUN Posted July 5 Posted July 5 Starting to wish I'd put my money where my mouth is and put a bet on Norway now. I don't get many things accurate but having them as my dark horses this year, and now they're in the Quarters in a winnable tie against us or Mexico.
Turkish Posted July 5 Posted July 5 1 hour ago, Turkish said: Yah they should have too much but Norway are organised and in Odegard and Haaland have two players who can change games they’ve got a chance Just saying 😉 1 1

Saint Fan CaM Posted July 5 Posted July 5 Blimey - Norway playing like…well Brazil. Oh btw - never a pen on Neymar. 1
Gloucester Saint Posted July 5 Posted July 5 Another referee losing control at the end here. Neymar being a dick - but it doesn’t matter. 3

Saint Fan CaM Posted July 5 Posted July 5 (edited) With all the shenanigans going on - all the shithousery - all the cheating and you just wonder what hope England have got tonight in Mexico. Reckon FIFA will make sure Mexico have every advantage they possibly can have - the narrative will not allow an England win. Will it? Edited July 5 by Saint Fan CaM Typo
egg Posted July 5 Posted July 5 I loved that. Great game, the Norwegians were brilliant. Their keeper was something else, and Haaland is a special player. 3
SWLondon Saint Posted July 5 Posted July 5 I only switched on in the 75th minute, good timing! Both goals as the cross / pass came towards him it just felt like everyone was thinking 'He couldn't, could he...?' Yes. Yes he could. The David Squires cartoons with him as a Nordic death robot are just genius. 1

Will probably see some dodgy decisions.
The Wyvern Posted July 5 Posted July 5 I thought Brazil were really poor considering the players they had available and such a shrewd experienced manager. Just looked up the Norway keeper, spent a lot of his career journeyman back-up at places like Reading and Norwich- funny old game ain’t it.

bugenhagen Posted July 5 Posted July 5 I don't think this Brazilian team was that good. Vini jr is the only world class player going forward. The Norwegian manager said at half time that Brazils biggest threat was on the break/counter attacks and gave the instruction to "Just play them to death" - it should have been the other way around. We are still the only team that have never lost to Brazil (3w 2d). 3
