Group F - Italy, Paraguay, New Zealand, Slovakia

[GIMH]

honestly the ref is giving every decision to the Italians, honestly hope the Kiwis can get something out of this.

great defence

Someone didn't ready Burgey's memo

 

[Meridio]

And how is that not a foul?

 

[BoyBrumby]

Fair play to the boy; turned Cannavaro inside out. Good touch for a big lad. Shot was just inches away too.

 

[99*]

Nice work Paston.

Carn Ryan, need you more than ever now.

 

[_Ed_]

Paston's found some confidence!

 

[Meridio]

Ha, Nelsen obviously playing for time.

 

[duffer]

Ryan Nelson has been a man among boys this World Cup.

 

[Jono]

Had that been an Italian player reckon CW may be a bit more pissed off.

 

[GIMH]

Ref's a ****ing joke

Also, anyone hear the commentator say "Football is a sport in New Zealand." Probably earned more today than I will all year for that insightful analysis.

 

[duffer]

Ugh, heart in mouth there.

 

[99*]

**** yes Paston.

 

[grecian]

Can't believe the ref, another decent save, Brumbers reverse-jinx working well.

 

[_Ed_]

Had that been an Italian player reckon CW may be a bit more pissed off.

Absolutely, and I'd usually not condone it. But I think it's only fair for them to get a taste of their own medicine.

 

[Meridio]

Come on guys! Stoppage time to go.

 

[duffer]

Should be hack an eyetie time as soon as they get in your half.

 

[_Ed_]

Brumbers reverse-jinx working well.

Deliberately avoided saying that...

 

[99*]

Regardless of result now, we've competed with the defending champs for 90+ minutes.

 

[Meridio]

Nelsen you are a god, Great block.

 

[99*]

Deliberately avoided saying that...

Same.

And another good stop from Paston there.

 

[duffer]

Heh @ Paston telling his team to push up.
