Reminded me of the goal they scored against us at '98 that one. I'm a big fan of the sneaky free-kick.

i am wondering are Nigeria this bad or Argentina so good?

i am wonering are Nigeria this bad or Argentina so good?

i think the difference is that players like messi and veron are playing well, whereas nigeria have average players at best (although the 'keeper's made a few good saves).

why does a manager make a substitution 7 minutes into the second half? why not at half time?

To see if he doesn't have to make a change after all, things can change in the 2nd half.

 

[mwgdrwg]

Argentina look quite good

I am watching on freeview, any way to get rid of that F1 Practice button in the top right?

yeah but 7 mins? you'd think it'd take longer to see what was happening rather than thinking things would magically change immediately.

7mins is enough time i think.
