2018 World Cup running thread

Could say that about Messi, too.

 

The other horses were on the field when they won Euro 2016. Ronaldo watched. Don't think Lebron will ever watch his team win a championship, or
even a playoff game.

 

He would if he was injured, like Ronaldo was.

 

Umm yeah. If he's injured his team is not winning a game in the Finals.

Ireland's defenders have nimble feet.

Hell,, Argentina should get a point for time of possession.

 

Ireland isn't playing.

 

They just don't allow any real good shots. Argentina hasn't allowed any real good shots either, but Caballero isn't an elite
keeper for an elite team.

 

Their back line is shaky as hell, too, but Iceland doesn’t have the attack or mindset to exploit it.

 

Has there ever been a winner of the World Cup with a keeper who didn't start for his club team?

 

Iceland's goalie deserves a Vezina after that performance.

 

I do not know who these American commentators are nor do I want to, but their whole "historic Cinderella story" about Iceland is complete horseshit. They got to the last eight of Euro 2016. They won their qualifying group. They are a good team. It's not like Malta or the Maldives somehow made the final 32.
