Why the fuck is France passing to Nigeria's goalie

[Netsui]

France's last pass and final shot is the only reason they aren't winning

[urbanmonkey]

I wonder how influential Ramadan fasting will be with Muslim players...

[BuffaloBill]

Fairly certain these count as special circumstances, I know there's way to not have to fast.

[urbanmonkey]

I think one of the reporters commented that one of the subs was fasting, maybe I misheard him.

[splenda]

It seems like they are all doing the full fasting rules of ramadan. (No food/drink including water until after sundown.)

[Flashcat]

I know the Belgian team has 3 muslims and they stated not to participate until they're done with the WC

[person12]

Those rules could easily fuck over players depending on when the game is.

[splenda]

France really deserved a goal seeing how many chances they have had.

[person12]

Also come on France seriously

FINALLY

[urbanmonkey]

Very poor goalkeeping there

[splenda]

Griezmann is a sexy man.

[Netsui]

I think France might end up surprising and get to the Finals.

[urbanmonkey]

Ouch...

[splenda]

Even though he didn't actually score.

[patches]

lmao what was that

[Chris™]

Well, time for Germany to win.

[corkscrew_1]

Jesus fucking Christ, the constant jeering whenever Germany's playing the ball is getting pretty obnoxious.

[splenda]

Algeria is playing really well.

[junker154]

Both teams play pretty good, this will be quite an exciting match.

[AK'z]

you'd think Germany would thrash but they haven't dominated shit.

[Kommodore]

late but yesterday's weeping costa rica fans were touching

[splenda]

[QUOTE=Kommodore;45256618]late but yesterday's weeping costa rica fans were touching[/QUOTE]
Costa Rica has become the feel-good team of the tournament. Everyone wants them to succeed.

[Netsui]

I hope Argelia wins just for Slimani

[Kommodore]

univision announcers just called the german squad's tactics "TICHI TACHEN" and they can't resist any excuse to say schweinsteiger's name using as much guttural force as possible

[AK'z]

SCHVEINSTEIGERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[BuffaloBill]

Reeaaally rooting for Algeria, would be fucking amazing if they managed to knock Germany out. Won't happen though, obviously.

[Marceline]

Algeria's great, real great, and their coach is amazing. But I hope they get pulverised.

[Silent Bang]

Im surprised Germany hasn't scored yet

[Bradyns]

I predicted 2-0 to France, but as I said last night, the Algerians are putting up a hell of a fight.
