Pure gamesmanship from Can there, he's a winner that lad.

Emre's been a one man wrecking crew

keano7 · « **Reply #684 on:** July 2, 2017, 08:49:27 pm »

Hard as nails is Can there with 7 riled up Chileans giving him all sorts! Was a German free kick as well!

Love how there was about ten seconds of Emre holding the ball between his legs, then they cut away to show some handbags and when they cut back after he's still clutching the ball to his chest.

Free kick just outside the box for Chile..may be last chance.

Ter Stegen wit a save from Alexis

Win Germany.

Imagine turning up to an international tournament with your reserves and winning it.

Caligula? · « **Reply #694 on:** July 2, 2017, 08:54:16 pm »

Fully deserved, Germany have been the best team of the tournament.

Samie · « **Reply #695 on:** July 2, 2017, 08:56:01 pm »

Pah! couldn't win the Euros.

Rush 82 · « **Reply #696 on:** July 2, 2017, 08:56:17 pm »

Germans defended like beasts.

Well done to them.

TheMissionary · « **Reply #697 on:** July 2, 2017, 08:56:21 pm »

He added on 5 minutes during which Germany brought on a sub and Chile had a free kick which took 45 seconds to set up a wall. He played 5 minutes a 3 seconds. Something's got to be done about time keeping in footy.

enjoyable game that, was hoping for a Chilean equaliser to take it to Extra time but then reminded myself who the opposition were and realised there was no chance....

Red-Soldier · « **Reply #700 on:** July 2, 2017, 09:03:57 pm »

When you've got Chile pumping balls into the box against a side like Germany, you know things are desperate.

Pistolero · « **Reply #701 on:** July 2, 2017, 09:05:05 pm »

need to bin that video bollocks though....open to so much abuse and wastes so much time its a non-starter

When they gave that yellow card for the blatant elbow AFTER looking at the replay..what's the point?

TheShanklyGates · « **Reply #704 on:** July 2, 2017, 09:18:57 pm »

Pleased to see Can get his hands on a trophy.

Got MOTM today. His saves won his nation its first ever Confederations Cup. He's also Barcelona's first choice keeper. So yes clearly he's a bit shite.

Being Barca's #1 means fuck all .You're very rarely called into play in the League.

VAR is a failure because referees are still making the wrong decisions with it. Just bin it

That spctacular save from Sanchez in added time? You're right, Lev Yashin himself wouldn't have kept that one out. He hardly costs Barcelona many games either because of the vast amounts of goals they score.

He's just dodgy. He mishandled once or twice today and didn't get to a ball that a Chilean player managed to pull back only for someone else to sky over. Seems to always have a clanger in him.

I'm sure I read that FIFA had already deemed it a success and were about to rubber-stamp making it permanent?

Don't think it needs binning, just needs refining somehow. The problem at the moment very much seems to be the referees rather than the concept.

Stegen won Barca ALOT of points towards the end of the season, he's had a break through year imo.

nah, just needs binning...just because something is technologically possible doesn't mean its a good idea...and this is a twat of an idea....just leave it the way it is, the ref and his whistle

Like many others, I quite enjoyed Emre's big-kid-keeping-the-ball-away-from-the-tiny-children/Chileans...

Especially his facial expression during the whole incident, completely placid and calm, not giving into any provocations, and not giving back the fucking ball, either...

Emre is boss...

I don't see how you can refine a replay and a referees brain though. The issue we had tonight was the ref actually viewed a replay and got the decision wrong. That should never happen, if you have the ability to see a replay and get 99 right and 1 wrong then it's still unacceptable. Then you have a situation where someone goes down in the box and the VAR doesn't even have the opportunity to review the situation because the referee hasn't chosen to review it.
