Keirik Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 so with the bomb scare cancelling man yoos game, now they know the result they need to get to the Champions League. 19-0 shouldn't be that hard. Just have to get a few early touchdowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-Dreamer Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Isn't great how people don't learn? 18 years ago, during the 1998 WC in France there was a lot of Hooligan violence. You'd think Police and Organisators would have taken a lesson from back then. Well...obviously not... http://bc03.rp-online.de/polopoly_fs/supporters-argue-during-the-euro-2016-1.6057424.1466186180!httpImage/3794228770.jpg_gen/derivatives/d540x303/3794228770.jpg http://www.sportschau.de/uefaeuro2016/kroatien244~_v-gseapremiumxl.jpg http://bc03.rp-online.de/polopoly_fs/spectators-run-on-the-stands-as-1.6041011.1465679686!httpImage/3447091500.jpg_gen/derivatives/d540x303/3447091500.jpg http://www.bz-berlin.de/data/uploads/2016/06/158092545_e0198cfc63-768x432.jpeg Granted you can't prevent idiots from being idiots, but still.... Russia remains in competition only on probation (granted they suck, so propably gone after next game anyway) and Croatia could get a similar warning after yesterdays Events. (There seems to be something really wrong there, if your fans start rioting while you have the lead!) Games a re being played as well, but due to most 3rd place teams making next round too, it's a really boring competition so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodka Drunkenski Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 I believe the Croatian event was a protest against corruption with leadership or something along those lines. Security really needs to beef up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-Dreamer Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Yeah, there seems to be a deep divide in Croatia, apparently newspapers reported something will most likely happen long before the game. Even more irritating that french Security did nothing about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-Dreamer Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 And Croatia got a slap on the wrist, despite having a history of such violence too and this being basically same level as what the Russians did. Why can't any sports-association have a consequent line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-Dreamer Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 This tournaments matchplan is getting ridiculous. One side of the tree has Germany, England, France, Spain and Italy all figthing for the same spot in the Final. The other side has Wales, Northern Ireland, Switzerland and Hungary. Not really ballanced I'd say. Best Teams on that side are a (so far) underperforming Belgium, struggling Portugal and infighting Croatia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it would be cool to see an Iceland, Ireland, Wales, or Northern Ireland go to a semi final or potential final, but by that time you're going to have 4 out 5 of the powerhouse teams already gone on the other side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keirik Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 But isn't it not seeding? They draw groups from a lottery type system. How are they supposed to predict the future? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-Dreamer Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 But isn't it not seeding? They draw groups from a lottery type system. How are they supposed to predict the future? England and Spain not winning theit groups is what made the matchplan lopsided. So yeah, not totally planable. But I feel like the mess with 4 3rd place teams qualifying as well contributed.

H-Dreamer Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Messi announced he's retirering from Argentinas national team. Quite a shocker, but let's wait if he stays out or if it was just a frustrated reaction to losing another Final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah with the 3rd place teams but this is the first time they expanded it from 16 teams so i suppose there are going to be a few learning curves here and there.

I am Scags Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Wales about to go through to the semis! What an upset, Belgium was heavily favored. Can Wales or Iceland be the 2016 version of that 2004 Greece team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-Dreamer Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Belgium was heavily overhyped too. But certainly a great game by Wales. Too bad Ramsey will be suspended for the semis, I'd rather not see Portugal win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am Scags Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Yea I think people were really struggling to put them up their with Germany, France, Italy, and I'm like whoa lets take it easy here. Yea that could be an issue with Ramsey out, but even with Ronaldo Portugal never scares me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-Dreamer Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 I think it's mainly due to those worthless FIFA World-Rankings placing them 1st for a while (and currently 2nd). No point in following these Rankings, since they don't take into account against which country you play. So garbage wins against Micronations count as much as beating Argentina or Germany. Belgium certainly has talented players, they struggle to be a team though. Of course missing most of the Defense didn't help them today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
