I see why Spain wanted it called, but it would have been very soft, IMO.

Spain were frustrating as frick today.


Agreed.

They should have attacked and won the game.

I don't think it was a PK. Players on both teams tied up and went down.

Even with his shitty season, he would have offered an immediate plan B instead of Aspas.

I like upsets, I just hate Russia

But at least now I'll get to cheer against Russia in the next round.

That side of the bracket is the most open I can remember. I was pulling for England but as usual the press is pissing me the frick off. All I hear is Colombia are a 3rd rate side and we should walk them; cocky shits.

Aspas is useless

dude fricking fell down running on his own and then took out Isco trying to get back up.

All I'm saying is that Spain have a dearth of options upfront. Aspas is too much like the midfielders, and requires intricate passing. Morata or even playing Rodrigo more would have been more useful in this game where they were playing a low block team. Morata also has a good record with the national team.

My Argentina is out so I don't know who to root for honestly. I picked France to win it all before the tournament so I guess I'll cheer for them even though they beat us out.

Is it weird to anyone else that it's nonstop commercials of hey United States you aren't here so cheer for us?

Keep in mind I don't know anything about or follow soccer. Are y'all a fan of penalty kick finishes? Seems like too much time spent battling it out all game to decide the game on what looks like a goalie being lucky

And most of the teams in the commercial are already knocked out.

Gotta end it sometime. Majority of the players had been playing for 120 minutes. Any longer and they might die.

When it leads to chaos among the traditional powers, yes. I would laugh my dick off if England lost on penalties again.

I don’t like it, but I don’t know how else you’d end it. They can’t continue playing forever.

Also, I’m at the point where I hope everyone who has a commercial loses. Sorry Belgium
