World Cup 2018 | 1st July | R16: Spain vs Russia, KO 15:00 (BST)

[Neville Kneville]

This Russian crowd has more hair than in 100 Champions League games.

Who are these people ?

 

[christened at st marks]

Isco at the heart of that imo. Wasting counter attacks fucking about.

This, has he passed once to Dave yet

 

[The Preacher]

Put your phones away and live the moment you sad Ruskin wankers

Well said, that man!

 

[BoundedCascade]

I thought had ball had to be deliberate.. come on Spain.

Or unnatural position which to me is debatable on this one but I can understand it, usually when someone jumps they push their arms to the side and don't leave one straight up like that.

 

[Neville Kneville]

No.

It pretty much does but it pretty much was.

 

[Crouchinho]

They’ve got no penetration about them. Just slow dull passing

Yep it's boring as shit and typical arrogance from the Spanish. They passed it back and and forwards 20 yards for 20 mins and got done in 10 seconds

Alba is a little wanker, leapt before he got near him. Spain will end up down to 10 if they let their heads go, Russians will be all over pique or should be at least.

So can the person who explained the hand ball rule the other day explain how that can be a penalty

Reached up towards the ball in a nonchalant “I won’t reach that” movement but ended up getting his arm in the way of the header at goal.

Bizarre one in which he deliberately moved his arm up to ‘fake’ handball it and resulted in him mistakenly hand balling it.

That’s one where it doesn’t have to be to the letter of the law.

 

[Churchlawtonblue]

Pen for me, arm straight in air. Unatural position.

 

[PragueBlue]

Come on Russia!
