France v Honduras (Group E) Sunday 15th June 2014

[Lo Siento.]

Bottled that the ref, Pogba should have walked.

Bottled that the ref, Pogba should have walked.

morally it was the correct decision

 

[Lord Camomile]

Aye, probably, though same goes for Palacios I think - stamped on Pogba, two, maybe three times, and Rooney walked for less against Portugal.

 

[Lo Siento.]

morally it was the correct decision

yeah, definitely. but letter of the law.

 

[Idaho]

Honduras are pretty nasty and negative. Fouls, play acting.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Early bid for overacting of the tournament from Palacios. Glad Pogba was not sent off.

 

[Badgers]

Oh dear

 

[marty21]

He deserved the red card

 

[Lord Camomile]

Shame for Honduras to concede a penalty and lose a man so close to half time, but Palacios got himself two stupid yellow cards.

 

[binka]

I'd settle for Benzema getting another five goals

 

[Lord Camomile]

Approve of the little red card above Honduras' name - very handy

 

[Badgers]

Not the finest first half

 

[smmudge]

Should have been a red for Pogba but seems ok as it turned out because of Palacois' rather dramatic reaction.

 

[Balbi]

Half time was fucking great. Robbie Savage got slowly, mercilessly, taken apart by Seedorf and Henry

 

[Lord Camomile]

Allez goalline technology!

Hang on...

 

[Lord Camomile]

Wow

 

[The Boy]

This sounds hilarious

 

[Balbi]

Glad this tech has cleared up the problems

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Half time was fucking great. Robbie Savage got slowly, mercilessly, taken apart by Seedorf and Henry

You could almost see the contempt. 'I'm Clarence Seedorf, this is Thierry Henry...who the fuck are you?'

 

[Lord Camomile]

I'm surprised there's this much debate. Don't care what it looks like to the naked eye, the system says it's over the line and we have to trust it.

 

[binka]

this is not as complicated as they are making it sound. it hit the bar and went in off the keeper fucking hell!

 

[friedaweed]

Goal line indecisive technology

 

[scifisam]

That looked like a goal just on video without the GLT. I don't get what the argument's about.

 

[Idaho]

Technology shows it's a goal, and it is a goal. Why are they saying it's complex? It bounced off the bar and over the line. Fuck me - if that is enough to fox football commentators, it's a wonder they can feed themselves.

 

[The Boy]

So was that given or what?

 

[Balbi]

You could almost see the contempt. 'I'm Clarence Seedorf, this is Thierry Henry...who the fuck are you?'

The "Arsenal didn't like physical teams, did you Thierry" ... "We managed" before the game too

 

[binka]

will someone put jonathan pearce out of my misery?

 

[TheHoodedClaw]

What the fuck does Jonathan Pearce not understand about what happened?

 

[Lord Camomile]

"get it sorted", "make it better"... It bloody worked, what's the confusion?!

 

[magneze]

Fucks sake Jonathan Pearce. It's really simple. The ball was over the second time.
