World Cup Discussion Thread - Day 2 (15 June)

[Sandros Shiny Head]

Not his fault but I'd be more ok in liking Ronaldo if the ridiculous fanboyism that follows him around didn't exist

But that was when everyone smoked 60 woodbines a day and had cod, chips and saveloy as a pre match diet.

Nothing like a bit of pig brains. Everything a growing footballer needs!

What a game.... Magic of the World Cup... the last two goals were amazing. Pity the match had to end. Great entertainment.

You feeling hopeful for the games against Ronaldugal and Spain then?

Iran top of the group. Everyone else fighting for second place.

Pele got 92

That was in one season, along with the 15,000 goals he scored for Santos

 

[TheHoddleWaddle]

Ronaldo, he really is an amazing player. What a career. Love him or hate him, he's just superb.

Not sure we will see many better games this tournament .

I didn't know Pele was North korean.

The only negative from that game is that a lightning bolt didn't strike Pepe and kill him stone dead.

I think Pele’s tally is still growing year on year, quite remarkable considering he’s about 80.

 

[cwy21]

We're gonna have one hell of a top 10 goals of the World Cup list. I swear we've had 5 already.

Well, I've just taken a nice little snortful of mescaline, so I'm convinced that Iran are going to win the World Cup so hard that they won't actually hold the one in Qatar in 2022 because this one will count twice.

Once I've come back to reality, I'll be happy with the three points we've got and concentrate on England.

I'm going to enjoy that while it lasts (all of five days!)

 

[Reece]

Vamos Portugal. Incredible game and what a day to look forward to tomorrow. 4 matches! This is what the World Cup is all about

If De Gea goes full Karius, second place is on.

 

[rez9000]

If De Gea goes full Karius, second place is on.

I'd celebrate that with a load of mescaline.

[Gassin's finest]

Personality bypass not withstanding, Ronaldo is pure sex when he's in that form. Imagine if Portugal actually had a good team to back him up.

 

['O Zio]

I didn't know Pele was North korean.

He's not, but it's OK cos Kim Jong-Un was always the better player anyway. At least that's what I heard.

 

[Woland]

51 fuckin hat tricks...thats just ridiculous some absolute special footballers haven’t scored 150 goals and hes got it in hat tricks alone.

Yup. Bale has 148. Mind-boggling.
