World Cup Match Thread DAY 3

[CosmicHotspur]

Colombia XI: Ospina, Zapata, Yepes, Sanchez, Armero, Aguilar, Gutiérrez, Rodríguez, Cuadrado, Zúñiga, Ibarbo.
Greece XI: Karnezis; Maniatis, Manolas, Samaras, Kone; Salpingidis, Torosidis, Gekas, Sokratis; Cholevas, Katsouranis

Surprised Martinez, Guarin, Mitroglou and Karagounis(yes I had to google those 2 names for spelling) arent in the lineups today. Some mistakes in both XI's, I think.

I think Martinez is on the bench.

 

[DuDe]

Come on Colombia!

And please ... no more own goals.

I remember that when it happened back in the day. World was shocked.

Guarin is banned for the first game.

Not a fan of the white shorts and socks on Colombia.

Oh. Didnt know that. Why?

 

[CosmicHotspur]

Oh. Didnt know that. Why?

He was a naughty boy.

Apparently, FIFA forced the Aussies to weat white socks as well.

 

[CosmicHotspur]

Columbia 1 up already!

 

[Syn_13]

Well, that was quick.

 

[yankspurs]

He was a naughty boy.

Well so was Sterling and Valencia who received red in a warm up friendly. But that had no consequences on the next game or the WC....

 

[felmani26]

Yes 1-0

Scrappy finish in the end but great play by Cuadrado.

 

[DuDe]

Columbia score after 5 mins. Good.

 

[SlickMongoose]

Great start!

 

[LSUY]

The game needed that otherwise Greece would just defend, defend, defend.

Believe Guarins was in a competitive game while the others weren't.

 

[DuDe]

lol, Greece nearly equalised right away.

 

[felmani26]

Looks like we have another good match on the cards - really open stuff.

 

[yankspurs]

Yellow on white on white in the sun make eyes bleed.

 

[nightgoat]

Great set up from Cuadrado, lovely dummy from Rodriguez. Ideal start, the Greek bus will have to move a bit.

 

[riggi]

Troll goal
