Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - RIP Diogo Jota

[Roberto Firmino]

Keepers always done homework. I remember Lehman vs Argentina in 06 looking at his water bottle before the shootout. It just seems to me that more are being put more closer and easier height for the keeper to me the save then into the corners with power. Like the classic Ronaldinho pen.

Yeah North Macedonia are a fun team. Play a lot more free than Serbia do with the larger talent pool.

Yea don't get me wrong I'm not saying people didn't do it, just seems to me at least there's more of a focus and it's standard procedure now. Could just be that there's more interest in it from fans and media which is why you hear more about it, it's also probably a lot easier to scout these days.

I know fred Hoiberg played with a pacemaker in the NBA

It actually ended his career, a full pacemaker is a little different from an ICD.

So many tributes for Eriksen almost as many as Gundogan got for hurting his knee

 

[SCORCH]

He needs to accept the Canada call-up already, Southgate doesnt want you

Still eligible for Nigeria as well

Belgium don't like it up and at 'em lads.

Really excited to see how Paulinho performs at the Olympics. His knee injury derailed his season at Leverkusen, but I still have confidence that he’s going to end up being the best player in his gen.

This probably isn’t a good enough team to repeat, but they should be fun to watch.

Looking like Hakimi to Chelsea is a done deal

KDB not wear a mask but Rudiger still is.

Rudiger just likes the look, no other explanation

He knows Germany need all the intimation they can get because the forwards ain't doing it.

Honestly, Rudiger seems to care more about what's going with Sierra Leone national team then Germany. He's been on just about every show in Sierra Leone this past week

Rudiger injured his face against Real Madrid in the semis.

Wait where'd you see TSN/Sportsnet are picking up the other games? We have to rely on OneSoccer since the Bell/Rogers crime family didn't want to pick up any of the qualifiers. Maybe they'll buy the rights off OneSoccer now.

OneSoccer is OK but the team needs more mainstream exposure now that it’s actually decent. The average Canadian probably still doesn’t know who Alphonso Davies and Jonathan David are. OneSoccer is good for CPL games, but TSN/Sportsnet need to step up and get the national team games.

Denmark vs Belgium

That was an interesting match. Belgium played like shyt for about 50 mins. Once they put on Witsel and De Bruyne they looked like a formidable team.

Credit to the Danes. They did play well.
