France vs Mexico

[agricola]

That "Germany" montage on the BBC was massively cliched.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

That was a properly cynical foul.

Amazed he got away with a yellow card.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Amazed he got away with a yellow card.

I dunno, not sure it could have been more. It was a clear case of "I know what the punishment will be and I'll take it".

I hope he doesnt get another one, he has been one of the few (indeed probably the only) French players to impress thus far.

It is a phrase that has been used before!! And can also be applied to penalties, throw in's etc..

 

[Lord Camomile]

[QueenOfGoths]

The Mexican one? Wasn't that bad

The French one of 3 or 4 minutes ago, apparently

 

[Lord Camomile]

Ah, righto

 

[editor]

What's the point of all that weird plasticky stuff on the French shirts?

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh

 

[butchersapron]

[editor]

Worst ref so far.

 

[Shreddy]
