@FIFAcom@FIFAWorldCup Absolute shambles. The laws of the game state that halftime should only be 15 minutes. As a governing body you've completely exposed yourself throughout this whole tournament. Awful, awful stuff. This isn't the game I fell in love with - you should be ashamed of yourselves
@WayneRooney perfectly summed up. @FIFAWorldCup#FIFA@FIFAcom abysmal kowtowing to the US with that halftime show. I want to watch football, not an aged Madonna as part of a 20+ minute nonsense.
Kick off 5 minutes late so they could shoe horn in all of this bollocks. What has Michael buffer got to do with football!? I'm here to watch the football, not all of the pageantry @FIFAWorldCup
@GwelloB@GuillemBalague It's not about chances, it's about control., we controlled the game to that point. You can't concede if you don't concede chances and you're more likely to score if you have the ball, which we did. They scored when they had the ball - it's pretty simple math!
@GwelloB@GuillemBalague Guile of Messi - give it a rest. We were naïve!! Argentina played the same corner over & again & England did nothing to counter - play it to the fullback, pass back to Messi & cross. Budget defending and concede a goal. That's not guile! Again, if you didn't see the fouls, fine.
@GwelloB@GuillemBalague Up to the goal, the game momentum was with England (bar one patch). The peaks were consistently with England and then Jarringly stopped after our goal. We stopped playing. If the pattern continues as we had seen up to that point then England won. It's pretty simple.
@GwelloB@GuillemBalague That's a wild take. Up to England's goal we were on top. If you don't see that then I don't know what game you were watching. All Argentina had up to England's goal was physicality - foul after foul went unpunished. No point discussing it if you see it the way you do.
@ToonFan14 When did it becomes the forwards job to avoid a collision? He is in front of the defender and is trying to solidify his position in possession by moving his body in front. As a defender you have 2 choices at that point - back off or try and win the ball...he didn't win the ball.
