I also find myself wanting Iraq to score, even though the best for Norway would be for them to lose. The lure of the underdog.

If somehow you were level with Iraq it goes to head to head.. even if they somehow won you’d surely finish above them.

What a good tackle

True, I keep forgetting about the head to head thing!

mad weather, this game needs an anhydrous break

Check out the big brain on Joe Hart…

He’s saying it’s not often you see keepers get a touch on the ball but not make a save. However, it’s happening a lot in this tournament due to the ball.

Someone posted in here earlier about the ball being fast. Seems like that’s true.

It is a struggle to keep ones eyes open when Giroud starts his analysis. Time for bed.

 

[Sandman]

its like he is high! so slow to talk - damn

 

[Craig_J]

What a joke this delay has been

 

[MartyFunkhouser]

You cant surely play on with this delay

This is insane, game kicked off almost 3 hours ago and still waiting for the second half to start. I don't remember this happening in 94, I'm assuming this is a relatively recent protocol.

94 was the goat of summers, there wasn’t a day of rain. I can’t remember a single game from 94 played in rain. Oh, wait! Russia vs Sweden had a bit of rain.

Getting a heart attack from our defending.

This has the potential to be a nightmare for the final group games where teams in one game will know exactly what's needed to go through if there's been a delay in the other game and we end up with a Germany v Austria at Spain 82 type of scenario.

 

[FolkestoneSpur]

Very tempted to get one of these Norway blackout shirts, superb.

 

[Daisuk]

Hydration break when it’s literally raining, ffs.

 

[Daisuk]

Aursnes player of the season for Benfica, but hasn’t played for Norway for a while. Been utter brick these two games now.

 

[Seedy Ron]

Great save

 

[Daisuk]

fudge yes! Most unlikely scorer!

 

[Daisuk]

Goddamn, should’ve been at least two towards the end there.
