Which goes to prove that no matter where you go in the world you'll always find a Scotsman. Or their ancestors.
He's of Irish ancestry, another one we missed, could have had a midfield of Rice, MacAllister and Grealish
holy shit that assist from Messi wasnt even looking
^ Great skill from Messi to open up the defenders. Just proves he can change matches with his eyes closed.
Very disappointed with Holland so far. Offered virtually nothing.
I won't laugh much if Messi misses a penalty and they go out.
Honestly, I won't.
Edit.
Bollocks
Former Miss Croatia Ivana Knoll, she's the lovely brunette that been shown in the stadium wearing a two piece outfit in the colours of the national flag, has said that the flag will drop if they win the World Cup.
I also note what Roy Keane's said last night
"I’m not surprised Brazil are out of the World Cup, they wasted all their energy dancing on South Korea"
I was a bit confused how paredes wasn't sent off he got 2 yellow cards... Have the rules changed or something?
^He got one yellow card for the foul on Nathan Ake and then proceeded to drill the ball into the Dutch bench.
To me he should have received a 2nd yellow card for that.
The referee dished out a staggering 17 yellow cards (although some reports say 15 and others say as many as 19) during the game and even in the penalty shootout. At the end of the match the ref sent off Denzel Dumfries.
Up there with the worst refereeing performances I've ever seen.. The players knew early on that he was weak and took advantage with niggling fouls yet I don't feel it was a dirty game. Oh well no doubt that was his last game this World Cup
