Match of the Day World Cup

[Sir David Gray]

What happens if teams finish group on same points? Is it goal difference, head to head or what?

Goal difference comes first.

[Deek9]

Goal difference comes first.

Cheers T. Couldn't download the rules on my phone.

[iwasthere1972]

What happens if teams finish group on same points? Is it goal difference, head to head or what?

Same as when Scotland went out on goal difference in 1974. So close as well and not ashamed to say that I was a wee bit tearful on my way up to the pub at 5pm to drown my sorrows.

[Stax]

yep i agree marcelo is a :trumpet:
Maybe, but I thought he had a decent game tonight.

[hibsbollah]

Maybe, but I thought he had a decent game tonight.

So did I. As did Paulinho, who was inexplicably singled out for criticism by Lawro.

[hibsbollah]

The Russians certainly have a rousing anthem. akinfeev having a wee cry there

[MWHIBBIES]

Hes a Brazilian Nish :agree:No chance, Nish would scored a barrel load in that Brazil team.

[Mon Dieu4]

Im liking South Korea already

[SteveHFC]

South Korea's away top is smart :agree:

[hibsbollah]

South Korea's away top is smart :agree:

Yep. Although a bit like Englands.

Nothing much happening. Korea slightly the better side, all Russia's good work coming through Zhirkov.

[portycabbage]

Martin Keown on Russian keeper -
"Have you ever seen a goalie drop so much?"

Yes.

[SteveHFC]

1-0 South Korea

[cabbageandribs1875]

1-1

[Sir David Gray]

1-1

I was going to ask how you had managed to post this two minutes before I had seen it.

I then realised that I had rewound my Sky box to see a replay of the South Korea goal and hadn't put it back again! :greengrin

PS-Hope it stays like this and I'll get my first 3 pointer of the predictor. :pray:

The most exciting thing about the Russia vs South Korea game was the blonde in the crowd the cameraman kept panning around to :greengrin

Hopefully the games tonight are a wee bit better.

[J-C]

So far very disappointed in Brasil, Argentine, Uruguay, Portugal and obviously Spain. Only able to listen to the games because I'm working, then highlights when I get in but the so called larger teams have been rank, my money's on Holland.

Just caught the highlights to be fair, so can't comment on the whole game, plus when driving the cab, I have to turn the radio down so as I can speak to the punters.

[Mon Dieu4]

Here we go again:greengrin

[Mon Dieu4]

1-0 holland Robben again, good goal, Australia had been doing ok as well

[Mon Dieu4]

Ooft 1-1 what a ****ing goal by Cahill, best of the World Cup so far

[cabbageandribs1875]

what a strike from cahill, think that will be up near the top of the list for best goals

[TheReg!]

This so far is a really good World Cup, apart from the Nigeria game the rest have been top notch.

[Pete]

This is excellent by Australia.

[Dinkydoo]

Australia are taking the game to them! No point in sitting back waiting to be picked off; they've got the right idea.

[PeeJay]

Dutch struggling badly in this game so far - funny what a burst of confidence after drubbing the world champions does for a team ...

[TheReg!]

Ooft 1-1 what a ****ing goal by Cahill, best of the World Cup so far

For me the best goal so far was RVP against Spain with the diving header.

[hfc rd]

Australia have been the much better side so far!

[EdinMike]

Socceroooooooo !!!!:thumbsup:

[hfc rd]

Cahill booked now means he is going to miss the Spain game. Massive blow for the socceroos.

[cabbageandribs1875]

cahill only has himself to blame, he's well aware he's already on one yellow card from the first game and then puts in a challenge like that...t*t, also puts the guy out of the game

[Mon Dieu4]

For me the best goal so far was RVP against Spain with the diving header.

I think Cahills was better technique, he had to watch that ball all the way and to execute a finish like that at the end of it

[Pete]

If it's a foot injury then I'd blame the daft knitted boots before Cahill.

[hfc rd]

Holland let off again there! Should have been 2-1 Australia after only 13 seconds into the second half. The foul seemed very soft and Van Persie now suspended for the next game.

[hfc rd]

Jedinak scores the pen. 2-1 Aussies

[Spike Mandela]

Scandalous penalty award.

Why would anyone try and shoot for goal if all you had to do was blooter the ball at somebodys arm 2 yards away to get a pen.

[Mon Dieu4]

What a game again Haha love this

[Spike Mandela]

**** me we can't even escape THAT cup final during the World cup.:rolleyes:

[(((Fergus)))]

Gratuitous mention of THAT final lol

[TheReg!]

[Albanian Hibs]

Only we could get a mention during an australia v holland game 😩

[hfc rd]

Is Liam McLeod commentating?

[DH1875]

This has probably been covered but I cant be bothered looking through the whole thread for the answer so here goes;

Why are all the games from the world cup under the one thread? Can be a bit of a pain (and a read) at times.

[lapsedhibee]

Is Liam McLeod commentating?

The fact that there's a player on the pitch who played in the final makes the mention of it not gratuitous enough to be McLeod's 'work'.

[Haymaker]

Reports that Ronaldo is out of the World Cup...

[Mon Dieu4]

Should have been 3-2 Australia now 3-2 Holland, great game again

[hfc rd]

i don't think Australia should have got that penalty, clearly ball played man

[Gatecrasher]

Amazing anthem from chile there :thumbsup:

[hibsbollah]

What a beautiful goal. Five perfect passes.
1-0 Chile.

[iwasthere1972]

Spain posing no threat to Chile. Confidence appears to have gone and one goal in 120 minutes says it all.

Hope the second half is better.

[iwasthere1972]

2-0 Chile.

Jeezo.

[cabbageandribs1875]

ooooh 2-0 Chile

[SteveHFC]

Spain are out :faf:

[Gatecrasher]

Wow, not writing them off just yet though.

Not yet but can't see them scoring three goals in the second half.

I wonder who Iker Casillas has been getting GK coaching from? He's had a shocker of a tournament!

[Viva_Palmeiras]

"We've all been there..." More punditry nonsense. No I think <0.005% of the population has played in the WC

[Jonnyboy]

Memo to LD - it's a no for Del Bosque :greengrin

[Sir David Gray]

Terrible decision to keep Casillas in goal after his performance against the Dutch.

Spain really have to win tonight, even a draw's probably not much use after the hammering they took in the first match.

[hfc rd]

Memo to LD - it's a no for Del Bosque :greengrin

It's a no to those Spanish players playing as well, especially Casillas.

[Jonnyboy]

It's a no to those Spanish players playing as well, especially Casillas.

Good to see Alonso hacking his way through a game, as usual :agree:

[hfc rd]

Quite tempted to put the Aussies on my coupon next week. This Spanish team is so low in confidence while the socceroos have no pressure at all as they have done really well in both their games and were pretty much seen as the whipping boys in that group before the WC kicked off.

[hfc rd]

Good to see Alonso hacking his way through a game, as usual :agree:


Crazy how he got his game over Xavi. He's the best passer in that Spain team.

Danny murphy reminds me of Ron Atkinson commentating.

[SteveHFC]

I don't think much of his music but fair play to Pitball he has done a great job managing the Chile squad.

[TheReg!]

Well done Chile, every player worked extremely hard for the team, great result and a great World Cup so far!!

[hfc rd]

Chile and Colombia have looked the two best sides from South America at this WC. The likes of Brazil and Argentina have been very poor considering they were the two favourites.

I think both Chile and Holland won't mind finishing 2nd in their group, if Brazil win group a. Brazil have looked poor and both of those two will be looking at that game and saying that they are beatable and they definitely have a chance.

[(((Fergus)))]

Who is that stone man standing on a ball, holding the Jules Rimet trophy then looking at a wee boy?

[CropleyWasGod]

It's the statue outside the Maracana, which is actually called the Estadio Mario Filho.

So, I'm guessing Mario Filho :cb

Edit.... it's not him, he was a journalist. It's Bellini, the captain of the 58 WC team.

[Pretty Boy]

How can Spain justify picking a keeper, admittedly a good one in his day, who was largely 2nd choice this season over 2 keepers who played all season? One of whom was very good, not sure about Reina.

[hibsbollah]

Chile and Holland will be desperate to avoid Brazil. I don't particularly want the hosts to win it but I have to chuckle when people write them off. You win nothing in the first week and They're still the favourites in my eyes.

[Matty_Jack04]

De gea is injured can't answer why not reina though picked on reputation no doubt

[Baader]

Some very odd selections in the Spain squad - Xavi, Mata, Koke and Fabregas all on the bench.. Why bring on Torres before Villa? Why wasn't Llorente even in the squad?

Del Bosque lost it a bit I think...

[Sir David Gray]

1-0 Croatia.

Nice move.

[Dinkydoo]

Very impressed with Croatia so far and thought they were unlucky to lose their first game against Brazil. Would be great to see Croatia, Mexico, Chile and Columbia go through to the next round.

That involves Brazil losing to Cameroon though, which isn't likely.

[Haymaker]

Alex Song off, straight red.

Cameroon were doing well but no cutting edge. Now their WC is probably over.

[Baader]

Song was stupid there. Red card. Easy for Croatia

[calder45a]

2-0 Croatia, curtains for the cameroonians

[Sir David Gray]

2-0 Croatia.

Hope they shut up shop now, I've got 2-0 Croatia on the predictor! :greengrin

Can't see it staying like that to be honest!

[Haymaker]

Great goal.

[Sir David Gray]

Nearly 3-0, Mandzukic misses a sitter.

He could drive you nuts at times, but he really could defend, and he'd never have played the way our two centre halfs did toward the end of the season.

[blackpoolhibs]

He'd walk into this current team, and subsequent teams since he left. In fact i'd kill for a pairing of Gary Caldwell and Sol Bamba these days.

Were Bamba and Hanlon ever a pairing? Granted, Hanlon wasn't as good as his is now, but it think Bamba would bring out the very best in him if he were here now.

Absolutely.

I mind watching Bamba in a preseason game down at Blackburn, I was living in Leeds at the time and I took along 3 Bradford fans with me. They thought he was brilliant. He was skinning their strikers when he was on the ball, and when they had it he was taking it off them so easily.

Wayne will be wishing he got an Affro transplant as I'm sure that ball would have gone in if he had. :wink:

Rooney misses from 1 yard

"A good ebb and flow to the game so far"

Really? I've found it to be quite dull so far.

Plenty of ebb

engerlund fans are singing :confused: what's going on, this WC is throwing up surprises left right and centre

YAS :thumbsup::thumbsup:

[iwasthere1972]

Oh yes. :thumbsup:

[Mon Dieu4]

**** yes, half fit Saurez

[patch1875]

Ya dancer

[cabbageandribs1875]

that shook the dandruff out of Hart's Heid

[easty]

Glen Johnson gave Cavani far too much time and space to put that ball in.

[Sylar]

Trying not to get too excited...I got excited after Italy opened the scoring on Saturday :greengrin

[Lewis77]

If the last game is anything to go by the media will now tell us how well England are playing, despite the fact they are 1 down.

[Dan Sarf]

"You've got to be aware of Suarez, you've gotta pick him up." How does Andy KNOW all this stuff?

Suarez. 1986. Cannae get excited about this bunch winning. :cb

[easty]

Tyldesley about Godin - "he's already on two yellow cards in my book".

Oh is he? Is your book called 'I'm a biased prick, hear my thoughts'?

1/10 that it doesn't get a mention on Eastenders on Monday if Engurland get beat. :agree:

[Mon Dieu4]

Don't want to be too hard on Uruguay as they are without their captain and Saurez is half fit, but Danny Murphy said England have nothing to fear from Colombia or the Ivory Coast, id suggest its the other way round and they have nothing to fear from these two

[Dave-O]

:partyhibb

[Lewis77]

There is no end product with the young lad sterling, is Henderson even on the pitch? Johnson can't defend and in fact the whole defence is gash.

[Gatecrasher]

Watching some of the other teams then England you realise how far behind they are, static, slow and a lack of cutting edge.

[Dan Sarf]

Barclay or the Ox to come on and change the game.

[Jonnyboy]

"You've got to be aware of Suarez, you've gotta pick him up." How does Andy KNOW all this stuff?

That little gem ranks up there with his "make the space and lump it into the box" comment :greengrin

[cabbageandribs1875]

1/10 that it doesn't get a mention on Eastenders on Monday if Engurland get beat. :agree:


i've never EVER watched eastbenders so i'l need to take your word on that event

[Gus Fring]

If England lose tonight what do we need the other results to be for them to go out?

[Col2]

Are england out if they lose tonight?

[iwasthere1972]

Are england out if they lose tonight?


:agree: Well it would still be mathematically possible for them to qualify but would be depending on lots going their way in the other matches. If Costa Rica get anything from their match with Italy then it's game over and back home.

[Mon Dieu4]

If England lose tonight what do we need the other results to be for them to go out?

Depending on the Italy Costa Rica game, it would mean Uruguay need a point off Italy to guarantee it

Steve thats a FANTASTIC SPOT !!!!!!!,,what about yon guy with the see you jimmy wig,,,,BRILLIANT STUFF :aok::aok::aok::aok:

[Dan Sarf]

Are england out if they lose tonight?

Do you mean like in Sao Paulo's version of George Street?

[cabbageandribs1875]

i think engerlund will still get through and play Colombia in the last 16 :( then get emptied out v Brazil or Holland in the QF

[Scorrie]

Are england out if they lose tonight?

if Italy and Costa Rica draw then they are both on four points so England would be oot - I think

LOL.......Fantastic Steve. :top marks

[easty]

Did Adrian Chiles actually just slate Muller for being a diver, and then ask Poyet if England should be more theatrical with their diving?

[Dan Sarf]

England should bring on Andy Townsend, he seems to know what it's all about.



Oh wait

[Hibercelona]

Did Adrian Chiles actually just slate Muller for being a diver, and then ask Poyet if England should be more theatrical with their diving?

Aye, but i'm sure he said that diving and cheating wasn't in their DNA. Getting pumped seems to be though. :faf:

[Dan Sarf]

Andy says Suarez saw that gap and went for it. Commentating at it's very best

[stokesmessiah]

Apparently Joe Hart just beat one out!

[cabbageandribs1875]

IF this stays the same it would be nice if Italy and Uruguay could come to a nice friendly agreement for a draw in the last game :)

aw man that should have been 2 :(

[Gatecrasher]

England on the ropes.

[SJNB Hibby]

If England lose tonight what do we need the other results to be for them to go out?

Italy - CR Draw

[stokesmessiah]

"Both feet very close to where the ball was"

[SteveHFC]

The absolute rage at Ibrahimovic there. It's almost as if he still harboured a grudge about him ripping England a new one.

[givescotlandfreedom]

This is shaping up for another cracking game. What a World Cup so far.

[Dan Sarf]

Time for changes Woy

[Hibercelona]

"Both feet very close to where the ball was"

He needs a punch in the face everytime an England player goes down like a beaten fly.

[iwasthere1972]

Financial disaster for the UK. Sterling has fallen again.
