Infantini probably asking Putin and Salman if FIFA can get a cut of the oil deal too.
Day 1: Opening Ceremony and Russia vs Saudi Arabia (Kick-off: 16h00 BST)
- Thread starter K2K
- Start date
he can provide football themed life jackets though
Your NT is quite decent, but the qualifying group was difficult even for a stronger team.
Nice to see crosses from out right actually being good instead of hitting the first man or going into the crowd.
Saudi Arabia just need a bit more composure. Russia are shaky at the back.
FFS Russia, you better not let the fake Kingdom of fecking Saud get a look in
And so it starts.
Russia is far from perfect itself
Imagine if Jose managed either of those teams, they would be 4-0 down while parking the bus now.
Hopefully it ends with this or KSA score a goal somehow. We don't want Russia to score a lot.
Russia are terrible
Saudi Arabia are chronic. Spain, Germany, Argentina or Brazil would all score at least five against them.
Me too but it's my second.
Different feel but they actually played o.k v Germany just last week.
Germany doesn't care much about friendlies. They always do terrible in them.
Mess with the best.....Die like the rest
second half is not good.
I thought it was Pee Pee not excrement. That would take it to a whole new level.
I don't want to go political but no one can top Saud and it's backers in destruction
Germany could've been 3-0/4-0 up at half time they hit the (inner) woodwork twice and were denied a legit goal, despite not giving a shit. People overestimate the significance of the final scoreline.
If they keep playing like this, the Saudis will surely beheading out of the WC soon.
ba dum tss!
ba dum tss!
The better team are 2-0 up and taking the pace out of the game. You have to expect that. It's up to Saudi now to create the tempo.
This second half is lower than League of Ireland quality.
The Saudi goalkeeper and centre backs are what World Cups are all about.
Hilariously bad l
Hilariously bad l
He should have buried that rebound. Needing the touch took the chance away from him.
Saudi created a few chances themselves but yeah I said different feeling in a friendly.
Anyway hardly anything happening in this half, Russia pretty happy with the 2-0.
I'd rather have Karius in goal than this Saudi dude.
Surprising that Russia hasn't scored another. SA is losing the ball more or less every time.
Firmly backing Egypt and Uruguay to proceed from this group, because both Russia and Saudi have been awful.
Saudi Arabia players aren't even that bad technically, they're just playing suicidal football
Burnley would take either of these guys apart3-0!
Goliath scores.
3-0
Buy Golovin!
I’d imagine she’s decomposed to San Marino over 40s league standard, in all fairness.
Knob.
Golovin looks a player.
