odessasteps Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 Will the little car be the star of the tournament? 1
AxB Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 Get a couple more cars out there and play IRL Rocket League. 1
Fuzzy Dunlop Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) 67 year old Chiellini celebrating like a motherfucker in the 92nd minute when he made that block trying to get a clean sheet while they're 3-0 up is A number one and not just because I stuck a fiver (I know, I know, such a big spender) on Italy to win the whole thing. The last year has been utter shite but, honestly, I've really been looking forward to this tournament and from booking days off work here and there, I figure I'll miss maybe 2 or 3 matches in total out of the 51. Of course the highlight before the tournament even began has been the Micah Richards/Roy Keane bromance on Sky Bet that everyone should watch and that someone smart should totally commission as a full length series involving the two.

odessasteps Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 I presume Welsh fans will be happy that Turkey did not look all that great tonight.
Infinit Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 With the Euros and the Copa America beginning it's futbol all day, every day for the next few weeks. Goodtimes!

U2 definitely won't be, they are reaching Nickelback-level for me. And having Andrea Bocelli sing Nessun Dorma was about as predictable as it was great. Bocelli might not be Luciano Pavarotti, but who is? Edited June 12, 2021 by Robert s
AxB Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 Wales vs Switzerland starting now. So, here is a picture of Xherdan Shaqiri, looking like a Rob Leifeld drawing but in real life:

The Natural Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 (edited) Turned on Denmark vs. Finland knowing somethings wrong with shots of players, managers and the crowd in distress. I thought it's a really bad injury and then you see medics doing fucking CPR. Christian Eriksen collapsed. Edited June 12, 2021 by The Natural
Jiji Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 Yeah, really scary. Nobody touched him. His eyes were wide open when being attended to but nobody was home.
hammerva Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 It seems like a Hank Gathers situation with hopefully not the same result 1
The Natural Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 Just now, Jiji said: Yeah, really scary. Nobody touched him. His eyes were wide open when being attended to but nobody was home. Jesus. Didn't see the fall. The Danish teammates surrounded Eriksen with their backs turned to give him privacy.
Robert S Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 (edited) The direction here is disgusting, they showed Eriksen's face being obviously unconscious, later on you could see the medics doing CPR and than they showed his girlfriend or his wife crying. Fuck UEFA. Edited June 12, 2021 by Robert s 3
hammerva Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 It is probably more ESPN to be fair. I mean UEFA has more to worry then optics
Fuzzy Dunlop Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 (edited) Fucking hell, honestly the worst thing I've ever seen watching a football match live and, yeah, the broadcast should immediately have cut back to the studio, absolutely no need to show the man receiving CPR. Referee deserves credit for acting immediately though. I just hope he's okay. Football is irrelevant. Edited June 12, 2021 by Fuzzy Dunlop
hammerva Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 (edited) I don't know if the countries has a serious rivalry but kudos for immediately realizing how bad it was and just stopped. Especially fans I am hoping the fans are all there in a form if tribute and not because nobody has told them a damn thing Edited June 12, 2021 by hammerva

They had the choice to cut the broadcast and switch to the studio and neither did so. 1
jaedmc Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 just tuned in I guess 30 seconds after he collapsed on a whim. Was a surprised they kept cutting back to the situation when it was clear it had become a life or death situation, based on what the medical staff were doing.
Robert S Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 There are pictures floating around on Twitter where it looks like Eriksen was conscious when he was transported out of the stadium.
Fuzzy Dunlop Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 Apparently the fans were cheering when he was being wheeled off the pitch and he was conscious on the stretcher? Hopefully good news.
Infinit Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 Yes I think he was conscious and his hands were moving. Wishing him a speedy recovery
