Kid Dynamite 5901 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 We should though. Take the occasion away, if that was a Friday night friendly match we would win it 9 times out of 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be pleased if we made the semis. I tend to agree it’s a fairly open tournament though, even before Spain lost Does that matter though? I know there are historical records and bogey teams and all that but when the team is walking out there does what the side did ten years ago affect their performance?

ewerk 26279 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Understandably so given the failures of the past with seemingly promising squads. I do wonder though how much psychology and knowledge of the past plays in these failures or if it’s just present day pressures that get too much. Which is why Southgate has been rightly applauded for bringing a squad of players largely uninvolved with prior tournament defeats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acrossthepond 699 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 This has been a proper game. Very little dirty fouling, fake crying, rolling around on the floor, making the VAR sign, and other bullshit. I like the look of Poulsen too, he's a player who causes a lot of trouble and covers a lot of ground. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Danes have edged it and I hope they win in extra time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acrossthepond 699 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 What a save. Jorgenson should've walked for that though, I can't believe he received only a yellow. That was the clearest red I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adios 717 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Yeah, I thought you could still get red in some situations even if a penalty is given? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acrossthepond 699 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 The new rules state that deliberate fouls should still merit red cards even if the penalty is awarded. I think that qualified as a deliberate foul. Of course Jorgenson was trying to get the ball, but he launched himself recklessly into a tackle he had almost no chance of winning and I feel it was every bit as much a professional foul as Solskjaer's against Rob Lee, i.e. a desperate attempt to prevent a certain goal. Even more certain considering the keeper was already beaten in this case. Red card for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
