[Linkyn]

ESPN talking about economic sanctions, wtf

I'd say that about covers the extent of their knowledge of Iran and / or Argentina.

 

[Hyllian]

No, just a long intro that screws us during sports events.

LOL

 

[Kall201]

The "oh fuck we're playing Argentina" formation.

Lol, pretty much.

 

[bjaelke]

Messi probably told the Iranian coach what formation to utilize.

 

[KingJolly]

Guys can you tell me a good stream to watch football? My House TV cable fell

 

[WonkyPanda]

I've never seen forwards run back so quickly to defend.

 

[akaoni]

I will cheer for Iran.

Where are you from?

 

[Lkr]

di maria is styling on people

 

[Juz]

Brilliant from Di Maria

 

[Heshinsi]

Jesus this crowd is annoying. What's up with the fake whistles?

 

[Mory Dunz]

You can't let one or two upsets command your future predictions. The favourites are favourites because they have better individual players, better tactical training and more experience at the highest levels of competition. Chile beating Spain and Costa Rica beating Italy doesn't change that Argentina and Germany are favoured today.

Not to mention that both Chile and Costa Rica are of higher quality than Iran/Ghana.

Sounds revisionist to me. Before the tournament, even if all of Italy had food poisoning, no one would expect them to lose to Costa Rica.

And no one rated Costa Rica higher than Ghana either.

The point being, the world seems closer in skill than ever before, and while the favorites should still win, anything can happen.

 

[Mobius 1]

Messi with dreams of catching up to Mulller

 

[FootballFan]

Good skills from GOAT and Di maria.

 

[Meier]

Greedy Messi, had Zaba on the overlap there.

 

[Pocky4Th3Win]

Argentina should switch to a more aggressive formation. No way will Iran have the chance to put much pressure on the goal often.

 

[KingJolly]

Where are you from?

Dominican Republic

 

[Kraftwerk]

Messi has an entire posse of Iranians around him. hehe

 

[Lkr]

Jesus this crowd is annoying. What's up with the fake whistles?

yeah honestly the worst, i noticed this at another match and i kept thinking the whistle was blowing. i don't know how it doesn't distract the players

if you're looking for a US stream, espn3 and univision both have one

 

[Ahmad_742009]

I Love our defenders

 

[JustHadToJoin]

Hey guys I'm new to soccer and are you supposed to have your entire team on your half of the field?

 

[Toxi]

Di Maria dribbling was hilarious.

 

[figadapaura]

I don't think Iran leaving their half is part of their plan.

Anything outside of it is a surprise and will be treated as such.

 

[mellz]

Hey guys I'm new to soccer and are you supposed to have your entire team on your half of the field?

They can stand anywhere

 

[Linkyn]

Damn

 

[WonkyPanda]

Romero is going to fall asleep. Iran should just lob one across the field eventually.

 

[Juz]

What a pass

 

[Arjen]

Nice save there

 

[Lkr]

Romero is going to fall asleep. Iran should just lob one across the field eventually.

that's the plan

 

[Ingeniero]

LOL Higuain, useless...

 

[CrocMother]

Do Brasilians have any sort of special place in their heart for Portugal? just curious whether the crowd will be with the US tomorrow

 

[Raist]

Buttsave

 

[figadapaura]

Just sat on the ball lol good save.

 

[Kall201]

Nice ass squeeze

This is like Spurs from NBA vs new Zealand breakers. Argentina are huge favourites and will score easily unless Iran defends like this.
