How can you have over 1k passes and not create a single decent chance?

Spain will win on PKs to round off this anti-football, sideways-passing extravaganza, clusterfuck of a match.

Spain almost have as bad a penalty record as us! My money is on Russia.

 

[Woodyy]

Ramos is a wanker but he's so calm at the back

 

[Indisguise]

IF Russia were somehow to get through this and win on penalties or through a lucky goal, I think we'd have a great chance of getting into the final.

Aren’t they the only team we’ve ever beaten on pens

They won't. They're my pick in the work sweepstakes. That would require me to get lucky which never happens.

Probably!

 

[Partizan]

Russia wont win this on penalties so right now its all about delaying their inevitable defeat as much as they can

Yeah Euro 96, pretty sure that's our only win on pens.

Hardly your fault if the BBC have got it wrong is it?

Haha have they?

 

[Bus-Conductor]

No wonder Spain do everything they can not to get into the opponents box, they are fucking hopeless when they do get in there

 

[werty]

Think that's only World Cups.

 

[Marty]

Haha have they?

Not that I know of. But I misread you, thought you were apologising if the graph was wrong.

 

[werty]

Two of them were being held.

 

[hughy]

This will be a pen.
