Football 2018 FIFA World Cup

Well, it's part of this sport everyone doing that.. ( the higher the League than it's more used )

With new technology, you will see less diving but acting will stay with a someone sometimes acts like half of his face was ripped off while someone has just touched his face..

Also, Ronaldo wasn't diving in that situation

Who cares about Honour all that goes to History is the final score.

He was so diving! The leg didn't even hit him! In the wide shot it's easier to see a leap.

That's why I only watch the World Cup

Even if a team wins from diving, in my books they were not winners

There was a contact with the leg Nacho didn't act fast enough after he didn't block a ball..
Even Nacho is telling about it


Ronaldo was just sneaky because he uses the fact that Nacho put a leg on his way..

Well, Portugal didn't win the match so Ronaldo can dive all he wants.

Huh, we are talking about the POR penalty? I thought it was a crystal clear penalty, it's not even debatable in my view.

He was leaping before the leg hit him

You're gonna lose sorry hehe

He was leaping before the leg hit him

Sadly, I can't find a video of that scene. I was also quite tired during the match, and only remember that Nacho clearly hit him before he (Nacho) had any chance to clear ball. Whether Ronaldo went for a dive or not, it was a very bad play from Nacho nonetheless. You just don't defend like this against someone like Ronaldo within the box.

Maybe I Honestly didn't know that Farfan is playing there

I was also searching for it and I think I found the video scene.

Surprisingly I have enjoyed that match Peru really surprised me with they play they didn't deserve to lose but not always better one wins.

If I wouldn't bet for 1-0 for Denmark I would feel sorry for them..

But that Match basically shows for me that I have to check the picks I made in Peru matches.

 

[Ice devil slayer]

@Vici Bruhhhhh you won today..haha but not next time and who do you think gonna win between Nigeria and Croatia ?

 

[Vici]

I would go with Nigeria

 

[Ice devil slayer]

Perfect will go with Croatia then you're gonna Lose this time

 

[Riku]

Hú! \o/

That's all I have to say this far.

 

[goldb]

Okay I have fixed it.. ( Too many cookies :P )

Oh right. I signed up but saw the number of predictions you had to fill in so I didn't bother. I forgot it would still keep me in that league.

Wow, France had more problems than expected, it would be great to see the underdogs passing round for a change

And Argentina... Idk why people seem that surprised, we all knew they are one of the weakest teams (they entered the WC by a hair for something).
I would even say they were lucky this time around, Messi is not going to take charge in every match, they need to improve that defence or Croatia might wipe them.

As for Ronaldo's penalty... for me its penalty (mistake of Nacho for putting the leg where he shouldn't), others say it was too light for the referee to blow the whistle, which might be true...
But well, later in the second half Piqué made a complete "bear hug" to Ronaldo in the box, so I think its even either way.

Underestimated? Spain played their style and it wasn't good enough against them today. That's how I saw it anyway. CR7 capitalized off of a bad penalty and Dea Gea mom's-spaghetti'ing all over himself (third goal doesn't count, because that was pure wizardry).

Well, I think it was underestimating because Spain had the option to finish Portugal off (they were playing better overall) but they chose not to only to "keep" the ball when there was still half an hour for the match to end, they thought they could have kept Portugal's constant attacks for 30 minutes (and they almost got it) but it was a bad decision.
Besides when I saw that Piqué had his leg damaged in one of the clashes I could see him making a dangerous fault on Ronaldo, he was no longer fresh enough to keep CR in check so he should have gone out for another defence player instead of Lucas Vazquez.

But well, things are what they are, whats important is that it was a nice match.
