Match Day 3: France v Australia; Argentina v Iceland; Peru v Denmark; Croatia v Nigeria


Recommended Posts

That was Iceland doing what Iceland does well: staying organized, pressing as a team when they can, staying on their man, working hard, keeping the lines. 

Everyone is team first, player second. And that - together with some talent - that makes a 330 000-strong nation grab a point in their first ever WC match. 

Oh, and they’re all more or less directly decended from us Norwegians, so we’ll claim a bit of that victory, thankyouverymuch. If I had been Norwegian. 

The great Ordeal of Poland should learn something about fighting here, which we should have learned in the 1760s.

Eh, your (insufficient) google translate skills are showing there ;) "Droit" does not mean what you think it means...

Hey, I did German in school, not French.

(And yes, I should have realised alternative meanings for "right").

The broadcast in the US of this Peru v. Denmark matchup is one of the most strangley commentated that I can remember.  

Jeebus, another shocking missed opportunity for Peru.  

Someone needs to tell Mr. Fiore what 'handball' means, and to stop using the term for throw ins.
