France v Switzerland - Monday 28/06 - 20:00

[campanula]

What a great evening

 

[belboid]

Don't think we really want him at Liverpool, do we?

Excellent result for Switzerland!

A good swap for shaq if they throw a few mill in as well

 

[Steel Icarus]

Eh lads.
It's coming home.

 

[not-bono-ever]

Fucking England are going to win this shitting thing if they get through tomorrow

 

[Lord Camomile]

Christ, having said at 88 minutes "it would have been a big surprise if France lost tonight", Tyldesley has now just said this was "the first huge shock of the tournament". It's the hugest, but Netherlands going out was the first huge shock.

I know, it's genuinely not an easy job, but christ...

 

[BCBlues]

Great stuff from all four teams today

 

[ruffneck23]

So thank you France and Switzerland for another cracker

And well done the Swiss

 

[Dogsauce]

What a ride that was.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Fucking England are going to win this shitting thing if they get through tomorrow

After the past couple of days, what on earth makes you think that?!

 

[not-bono-ever]

FUCKMYLIFE

 

[Streathamite]

'scuse me a moment, but....AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!


as you were.

 

[Rebelda]

Omfg. Brilliant. The Swiss pens were very clever. Nifty little pauses. That keeper is going to be on top of the world.

Poor Kylian.

What's the foot on the line rule?

 

[The39thStep]

Great victory for the minority Catholic population in Switzerland i

You have to keep at least on there. The rules always been there but they started cracking down on it (at the last wc?)

Genuinely don't think Netherlands going out was a shock. They've been crap for years. They drew with Scotland recently ffs

What's the football on the line rule?

I think it's just that the goalie has to be on the line when the ball is kicked?

Comes after 'keepers were 2ft forward of the line when they were saving penalties.

Pfft, what do you know, you like penalties

 

[quiet guy]

Goalie has to have a foot on the line when the player kicks the ball. If not they retake it.

 

[marty21]

Well, that was quite a match .

 

[brogdale]

 

[Streathamite]

well done, the swiss. richly deserved. And France desrrved to lose for sheer arrogance and complacency alone.
I am beginning to seriously love this tournament

 

[imposs1904]

Wonderful from the Swiss.

Delicious result after that egomaniacal goal celebration from Pogba. #Wanker

 

[Lord Camomile]

Won't somebody please think of the fantasy managers

 

[Rebelda]

Cheers mates. I thought there was some new element cos they kept going on about it

 

[ruffneck23]

yes this , I wasn't very interested during the group games, even for the England ones, and I dont know why ? , Today I didnt drink and watched both matches and now I'm hooked

 

[Steel Icarus]

Roy Keane caught himself being enthusiastic ("this is why this is the greatest game in the world") so immediately had to say how glad he was France were punished for their attitude

 

[MrSki]

A great game/day of footie & I forgot to vote earlier so have just corrected that.

I still thought France would win even after the 5th Swiss penalty. Cracking games & I hope that tomorrow can be a third as good but I doubt it.

 

[ska invita]

one thing id say about the swiss was that they were super calm throughout that match, even at moments of heavy pressure - it counts for so much.

unfortunately england have a tendency over the years to get into panic mode when things tense, partly why i notice it when an underdog stays collected

 

[Petcha]

Well, the son of a bitch who has been making my life hell at work had France in the sweepstake and had basically already spent the money. So well done Switzerland, if for nothing more than me getting to gloat at the prick at the 8 fucking 30 am call he has arranged for me tomorrow

 

[tonysingh]

Hubris is a fucker.
