That's why

I think there is somehow a rule that refs let the play continue and always overrule (or not) with VAR. Give the attackers the chance to finish just in case.

At first it annoyed me but I think that's kinda the right thing to do somehow :patrice:


yea, I realized.
I guess they finally realized taking goals off is better and easier than preventing legit opportunities, same as playing advantage when a card is due.


nvm, VAR reasons :mjlol:

Cameroon don't play tactically at all.

Never seen so many people chasing the ball before lol..
This is why you see multiple Serbian players free in the box with space to shoot. They don't play zonally...they just chase the ball.

"Nationalistic flag"?


While "three fingers" from the Milan Borjan story is a nationalistic salute, until Kosovo gets into the UN, these borders are the only official ones under which Serbia is member of UN...

I'm not sure the flag with official UN borders can be considered nationalistic...


What's up wit h all the caping for horrific behavior in this thread?

A large majority of UN nations recognize Kosovo. They can't be officially recognized by the UN because Serbia's genocidal asses don't like it, and Russia is carrying Serbia's water for them. Since Russia holds veto power as well as significant influence over dozens of other countries, they're fukked.




The list of 13,517 people who were killed or went missing between January 1998 and December 31, 2000, including civilians and members of armed forces, was published on Wednesday on a website called the Kosovo Memory Book.

The list includes 10,415 Albanians, 2,197 Serbs, 528 Roma, Bosniaks and other non-Albanians. It was created by the Belgrade-based Humanitarian Law Centre and the Humanitarian Law Centre Kosovo and was last updated on November 7.

The database says that 8,661 Kosovo Albanian civilians were killed or disappeared, as well as 1,797 Serbs and 447 Roma, Bosniaks and other non-Albanians. The rest of those registered were fighters.
Meanwhile at a press conference to mark Human Rights Day, several Serbian NGOs warned that the Serbian government was failing to tackle rights issues.

Sonja Biserko from the Heksinki Committee for Human Rights said that the situation in Serbia was worse than 10 years ago, arguing that “Serbia is a divided society, primarily on ethnic grounds”.

“The unwillingness of Serbia to overcome the legacy of the recent past and distancing itself creates tensions in regional affairs, as it was recently the case with the return of [war crimes defendant] Vojislav Seselj,” Biserko said.

Marijana Toma from the Humanitarian Law Centre also spoke at the press conference, saying that Serbia was not issuing enough indictments for war crimes and that only low-ranking perpetrators were being prosecuted, while “the responsibility of middle- and high-ranking police and army officials is almost completely neglected”.

Serbian peace group Women in Black also gathered in Belgrade on Wednesday to mark Human Rights Day with a protest action entitled ‘Enough Terror’.

Activists held up placards listing human-rights problems and banners that read “I will always be an activist” and “I will not live in fear”.

My god, the match has switched around.

On a side note, Cameroonians have the best surnames in Africa. IMO:
Bassagog
Djemba Djemba
Zambo Nguissah
Choupo-Moting
Toko Ekambi
Ngapandouetnbu
Ngom Mbekeli
Mbah a Moute

I want a Cameroonian surname.
