Turkey V Czech Republic

[Phenotypic Dai]

How did they decide it before then in this situation??

Where a replay or playoff was not possible, ties were previously decided by drawing of lots. Examples include Italy's win over the USSR in the semi-final of the 1968 European Championship. Israeli Yosef Dagan is claimed by some to have invented the shootout, after watching the Israel national football team eliminated from the 1968 Olympic semi-finals due to a coin toss.

Interesting.

Interesting fact this...The Czech's have had to contest three penalty shootouts in major tournaments winning all three of them and not missing a single penalty. That's some impressive form there.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Come on you czechs!

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

What's up with Matey's boots then?

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Atleast this has no chance of being a boring 0-0 now, we'll either see a goal or a penalty shoot out if worst comes to worst.

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

The Ref: I've got a shiny new yellow card. Here, let me show you.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

haha

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Boring game so far.

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

Hey, it's another naturalized Brazilian.

Why the hell can't Wales start importing these guys?

 

[TrippyLondoner]

1-0 Czechs!!!!

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

About bloody time too.

 

[Balbi]

Big Jan delivers

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Now things should pick up, turkey have to attack.

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

Beglin just made a gag about bouncing Czechs.

I'm putting my foot through the telly and sending him the bill.

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

I wonder if one of these clowns will make a reference to stuffing if Turkey concede again?

 

[TrippyLondoner]

hahaha

Wouldn't doubt it.

 

[pastieburt]

Bit of a boring game.

 

[editor]

Come on you Czechs!

And fucking liven up the game while you're at it.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Really shit game, its upto the turks to start attacking but they still just refuse to do anything. Kind of explains why i want to see them lose. The other game is still 0-0.

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

Half time analysis from Andy Townsend and David Moyes?

In that case, I'm off for a shit.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

lol

They were apparently questioning about Koller being in the starting line up at first. Stupid fucks. I've always liked Koller.

 

[pastieburt]

me too.

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

Fucking ITV.

3 pundits and not a tie amongst them.

Scruffy.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Interesting shot that.

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

Nihat?

Arsehat, more like.

Why go for the Hollywood shot when you've got time to bring it down?

Still, at least they're having a go now.

 

[pastieburt]

Still a boring game.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Yeah much better already this half. Doesn't feel boring anymore.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

I hope turkey score and then get knocked out on penalties.

Enter the Coca cola kid.
