World Cup Match Thread Part 3

[wolves71]

3-0, counter attack by France, Benzema down the left and finds Valbuena who makes no mistake.

With England on the sidelines who will you be pulling for the rest of the way? I like the Costa Ricans (the little country that could) until they get bumped out, then the Netherlands and USA.

I can now enjoy the rest of the tournament as a football fan. I'm not fussed who wins the tournament, but often hope a less fancied side defies the odds and goes on to win it.[/quote]

I suppose the 'pressure' is off now that we're going home and we can indeed enjoy the rest of the tournament as neutrals.

I think its been a great tournament so far by the way.

I enjoy a game when both teams go for it, and there has been a lot of that, a 'chess like' game doesn't do it for me. Hopefully the tournament carries on as it has begun.

4-0, Benzema again, poor attempt at a clearance by Senderos.

[Acido]

The Swiss are very poor but France's attitude has been excellent.

5-1 and a missed penalty

What impresses me is the French have carried on attacking like it was 0-0 in the last minute. They could have had about 8 tonight.

[wolves71]

France are going to town on Switzerland, Sissoko with the finish, too easy.

[wolves71]

Dzemaili free-kick pulls a goal back, Lloris shouldn't get beat low from that far out. Wall didn't help either, 5-1.

[wolves71]

Another Switzerland goal, good finish by Xhaka, 5-2.

[wolves71]

Best goal of the game and the ref blows his whistle just before, quality from Benzema.

Are you banned from Benny Mad again? [/quote]

They banned my IP. Cause I challenged a mod about their personal abuse of me they banned me and deliberately didn't put a card up. When I e-mailed them they banned my IP they got from the e-mail header. They're all for free speech as long as you don't use it effectively.

Like Arnie, I'll be back.
