#OTD @ #Spain82
One of the greatest games of all time saw the iconic #Brazil82 side knocked out of the World Cup by Italy
Socrates & Falcao scored for Brazil but Paolo Rossi was the hero for Italy as he grabbed a hat trick to win 3-2

@barneyronay A fascinating time in test cricket & what happens next to both sides. Do England go the usual break it apart route & Australia about to start the build of a new team & in 3 months podcasts will start the build up to the next ashes. Reminds me of the Mitchell &Webb football sketch

A supreme Socrates shitpinger vs USSR.
The good Doctor has a look up, sees the great Rinat Dasayev in net, and says:
“Have a dose of this, pal...”
TELLY GOLD: It’s 35 years since the start of Italia 90, so here’s the intro to the official BBC tournament round-up.

Lovely. Just lovely.
@henrymoeranBBC@norcrosscricket why on your recent podcast is there little / no discussion about Jos Butlers captaincy / leadership? England look like they have regressed in the short form which appears to be due to losing the strategic mind of Eoin Morgan.
@7Cricket Australia have a 204 run lead and 4 wickets left. What’s the run chase history @MCG . It would be great if the commentary team could start to discuss what is a total from here? 275 tough on this wicket?
You see this, this is what happens in real life. The bots can't show up on the streets.
On the right there (yeah the far right) are the 6 nazis who turned up to cause mayhem.
Everyone else is there to stop them.
This is England.
