Iran vs Spain (Group B) - 19:00 - 20/06/2018

[Badgers]

Big challenge for Spain against the group leaders. There has been a lot of upheaval in the Spain camp and they need to turn things around...



My guess is that Spain will win by 4/5 goals.

What was that bird magic?

 

[campanula]

Truly, would love to see iran score

 

[Badgers]

Early start by Ramos

 

[dessiato]

I've been looking forward to this game. Bit dull do far.

 

[campanula]

?

 

[campanula]

Bit dull do far.

only cos Iran are being super defensive. You would think they felt it worth rattling the Spanish keeper (who still looks shaky as fuck)

 

[campanula]

Iran would be happy with 0.0 I guess

 

[dessiato]

Iran's going to get a few cards at this rate.

Hopefully Ramos and Costa too eh?

 

[JimW]

Literally seconds of Iranian possession just then

 

[JimW]

get up there!

 

[Lord Camomile]

England being 1-0 up against Tunisia ain't lookin' so bad now, eh?

 

[han]

Come on Iran!

Let's hope Ramos has a Walker moment

 

[JimW]

Actually quite enjoying the Rorke's Drift scenario.

If England did what Iran have done so far against this Spain side the pundits would be raving about it. Iran have been magnificent.

Yep. Total commitment to the cause. This is the kind of game where Spain frustrate me a bit. You know they won't change, and why should they? But for all their possession, they don't create many chances.

 

[dessiato]

The way it's going I can see Iran breaking away and scoring a single goal that wins the game. More luck than anything to do so.

 

[Badgers]

What was that bird magic?

There it is

 

[The Octagon]

Expected Ramos to break its wing, tbh

 

[Badgers]

Woah

Thought that was in

 

[agricola]

boooo

 

[JimW]

Fuck I thought that was in

 

[Badgers]

Long time coming I suppose

 

[dessiato]

About time!

 

[not-bono-ever]

fuckpiggery

 

[JimW]

Costa's having a good tournament

 

[littlebabyjesus]

And in the end it's a huge piece of luck that does it.
