Well how about you stop the effing clock after a goal or injury!

Too much tradition and traditionalists in soccer. They love it the way it is.



I believe there needs to be some rule changes to bring the game into the modern era, but it'll never happen.

what's a few yards? the penalty spot is only 12 yards away.

they will creep up, and creep up cutting down the angle.

With how chippy this game has been, and with how England hates PKs, I feel like this Extra Time is going to be crazy.

Lot of yellows out there too

I mean it is fate. At least they had no expectations this time around right?

Damn, I hate that the goon squad in yellow may move on.

How about moving the penalty kicks back further?

but the soccer field is so pretty with the D and everything.

England with a sub up their sleeve, and Colombia with none. Plus Mina with a possible groin pull. That gives me a sliver of optimism for England.

[Locke]

Big issue is that the Colombians had to go for it so they've got a predominantly attacking lineup out there, maybe they'll push for the winner and Vardy can exploit some space.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Should have been red for Young.

[Ducay]

This isn't even enjoyable to watch. If I wasn't curious who wins, I'd probably turn this off (and if the alternative wasn't going back to work). First time I've thought that this entire WC, including blowout matches with low ranked teams

Right - but still. One less than England.

[FLAMESRULE]

A shot on goal after the whistle?? How is that wanker not walking around with a broken nose??

[GirlySports]

Just waiting on the Pickford howler that makes him unusable going forward

[Senator Clay Davis]

England are physical gassed and emotionally broken. Might be lucky to get to penalties at this point.

[atb]

Zero pressure by England, has Vardy touched he ball yet?
