n = Gregggg

If Venezuela win, Jerryworld will finally see the home team win a playoff game.

At least they got to cheer for Romo one last time

 

[OCST]

Colombia up 1-0 on Panama at 12’, and the Panama keeper gets called for a penalty- came out on the attacker and got the man, not the ball.

 

[OCST]

One of many ex-Toffees to make their mark in the summer tourneys, James hits the pen and Panama are in trouble.

 

[OCST]

The Panama white shirts are beautiful in their simplicity.

Agreed.

I’d like to see that again. Ball might’ve crossed the line.

The Copa VAR replays and lack of goal line tech really sucks.

Pathetic tbf. No excuse.

 

[speedracer]

fun fact: AORN USA, Canada and Panama are all tied for 31st place in the Elo international football ratings.

Somehow Mexico is 25th.

This is a really good game. Panama is playing aggressively and have strung together some really good sequences. Of course they’re wide open to counters playing that way.

 

[teddykgb]

I think Brazil v Uruguay will be the best match of the day

Is it too late to change my mind?

 

[rguilmar]

Well that just about does it

Watching Panama get crushed by Colombia is frustrating. WE should be getting crushed by Colombia.

I’m not even sure of that anymore, in this half I’ve already seen Panama deliver three balls into the box of higher quality than anything we produced over three games.

 

[tmracht]

Colombia party time.

 

[OCST]

4-0 now but Panama really did play better than that.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Nunez vs Allison - this should be fun

Alison just tried to bait Darwin on that goal kick. LOL. Gonna be fun.

 

[67YAZ]

Uruguay bringing the chippy play right from the start is not fun.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Lots of nibbles ( non Suarez variety)

 

[67YAZ]

The pitch is not looking great.

 

[tmracht]

Getting chippy for sure.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

On the FS1 broadcast - who are the announcers?

 

[teddykgb]

Araujo busting out the old madden truck stuck on Endrick was top tier shithousery

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

These corners are looking dangerous

 

[Dummy Hoy]

See, as a hockey guy, I really like the physical and occasionally cheap shot nature of Western Hemispheric football. Araujo saw his chance with the ref looking away and got Endrick with a shot- but they type that hurts rather than injures. And I really appreciated Raphinha following up.

Araujo loving that hit stick too.

He plays with the red mist. Hasn’t yet mastered the dark arts. Team like Brazil fully capable of baiting him into something dumb too. It’s a fine line to walk and he’s got some Pepe in him

 

[67YAZ]

That’s a card.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Should have been a yellow

I think he’s been well in control with his transgressions so far…knows exactly what he’s doing.

long way to go though lol

Fully agree. He’s in training. Ref probably should have carded him already for overzealous defending but hasn’t so he’s got free reign to continue to be a chaos agent

 

[67YAZ]

Endrick has to take that himself.

 

[teddykgb]

I think if you’re a Liverpool fan you have to be thrilled with how Darwin looks for his country. The finishing is probably always going to be wasteful. But the indecision and being too sped up in the Prem I thought he showed at times isn’t present here. He’s looked really high class and it looks like if you can get him settled you might get someone who can drive your attack

On the FS1 broadcast - who are the announcers?

The lead announcer is John Strong. From Portland. Actually used to be one of us in the stands at Timbers matches. An overall great guy. Happy to see his success in the booth.

Think the other one is Stu Holden. Former USMNT midfielder.

 

[tmracht]

Oh that sucks. He's been so good to watch.

 

[Dummy Hoy]

Agreed

 

[teddykgb]

It’s a completely emotional response but I don’t think Uruguay can do this without Araujo

Makes the easy look impossible…

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Diego Forlan woulda a scored there.

Goal line to goal line action

 

[SoxFanInPdx]

That was a very Nunez non-finish as an LFC supporter

Oh Darwin ..

The last couple of months of the Prem season he looked a shell of himself - it was like he took all that calming down advice to his whole game and not just the finishing.

 

[teddykgb]

You could not get me to ref a match between these two I don’t think there’s any way to “win”. Just non stop aggression and players down grabbing things and no way to know what’s real and fake

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Someone must have bet on Paqueta getting a blow to the face

 

[Zososoxfan]

Watching Panama get crushed by Colombia is frustrating. WE should be getting crushed by Colombia.

I loled.

Didn't know he had that in his bag. International competition always brings it out.
