He plays on name only but again the goal came from his perseverance
Day 7: Portugal vs Morocco, Uruguay vs Saudi Arabia and Iran vs Spain
- Thread starter K2K
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
This game reminds me of King Poros fighting valiantly and beating Alexander the Great on the banks of the Jhelum. Why it reminds me of this, pray don't ask me. Those battles didn't involve the Persians. I just wanted to throw in a historical analogy of my own.
How does someone with the last name Resurrección end up using a shite nickname like Koke?
Reminded me of when we used to play Death Square in school.
No chance of schools allowing that nowadays. Pffft
VAR really isn't ruining anything. The complaint I have is that it completely stops the game during some tense moments, but I'll take it over my team being jipped out of a result because the ref missed something blatant.
Knock it off
Maybe he doesn't believe in it ?
?What's that
Exactly. U hate you VAR.
He didn't beat him. He lost. It's also Porus, not Poros. However, the legend is that Alexander was impressed enough he didn't take his kingdom. He then went to the Ganga, and his men said F this and turned around.
Fair enough.
What a fiercely contested match this is! Iran are decent when they're not playacting
Maybe he just really enjoys a cool sugary beverage, i was addicted to Vanilla Coke once.
Porus lost.
Good cross !
I know right? The man is not a Stone Roses fan I gather.
Wrong. He did beat him. History was rewritten there.
For a team that is set up to never attack, Iran actually look dangerous when they do go forward.
third time very close.
Indeed.
Iran look better then half the teams in this tournament
Looked like Ramos was gesturing for De Gea to come out and claim that cross.
Fair play to the Iranian lads, putting up a great fight. Wish the goal had stood.
The only thing he truly needs to work on
If it rains De Gea does not get wet
Feels like a home game for Iran.
They deserve that for bringing vuvuzelas.
If only it didn't take a Spain goal for Iran to play like this, this would've been some game. Spain are no great shakes defensively.
Porus was also killed by Eudemus after Alexander's death. Tragic.
Can Spain score 10 more goals please!
So much preparation for a shite FK
This game could be in December at Kazan and he still wouldn't even catch a cold
Iran played well since they conceded. Why the hell they had waited for this to play ?
Spain are amazing when it comes to bringing the ball from the back through the middle
Iran can beat that boring ass Portuguese team if they show this spirit when they meet
Finally Asensio in.
Because a draw suited them
Is Vasquez rated in Spain?
Seems like their Jesus Navas. A bit shit, but they don't have any other wide players.

What is it with you and your historical analogies? Cleopatra, Mark Antony.
just fooling around.Mark out a square, about ten foot square.
10-15 lads and a tennis ball. One touch only and knock it about.
If it goes out, the last person to touch it gets kicked (as hard as possible) until they get out of the square.
Ideally, you try and ricochet it off someone/then out. Risk is it misses them, goes straight out and you get tw@tted.
Surprising how getting kicked improves your one touch skills.
