[Football] World Cup - Day Twenty - The Quarters Begin

[The Wizard]

Going to continue my abysmal predictions today; Argentina to win this on pens, Martinez to make a couple of saves.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Absolutely shitting it for Alexis right now!

Please, please score!

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Look at refs like this and makes you realise our refs are not so bad.

 

[Washie]

At least we get a penalty shootout after that

Excellent. I'm looking forward to seeing Netherlands get through.

 

[Simster]

Not for the first time, the pundits are whining at the referee when in actual fact the ref has got most things right.

 

[The Wizard]

Emi Martinez is just unreal for penalties

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

These are some shit Dutch pens

 

[pb21]

Good saves really

 

[Zeberdi]

Emi Martinez is just unreal for penalties

Yep - He reads the penalty taker very well

 

[hart's shirt]

2

Not quite, but he might take the winning one!

 

[dazzer6666]

‘Almost straight down the middle’

WTF is Pearce watching?

 

[Bodian]

Why on earth did the Dutch stop playing in extra time - they don't win shoot-outs and Martinez is a great stopper.

 

[Zeberdi]

Not quite, but he might take the winning one!

After the event, no, not 2 or the winner

EDIT This is horrible way to end 120 minutes of football

 

[The Wizard]

‘Almost straight down the middle’

WTF is Pearce watching?

Literally as far into the corner as you could get

 

[Farehamseagull]

Why wasn’t Alexis ahead of the kid?!

 

[Washie]

This shoot out makes up for that poor match, this is great

 

[Farehamseagull]

Yesss!!!

Astonished Alexis wasn’t in their first 5 takers though!

 

[1066familyman]

Good penalties from Argentina. They deserved that in the end.

Two great spectacles today!

 

[Quebec Seagull]

Would've liked Alexis to win it for them
