These pens are mad

 

[Haston]

Ridiculous drama in this shootout

 

[toffeejack]

Gahhhh

I can't watch at the mo

not saying this as a mickey take, but that was the greatest pen shootout i've ever seen. why is it snides always win in shootouts? almost carbon copy of ours vs west ham. ghana keeper didn't get close to any and then has his saved by a keeper pretending to be injured. really wanted ghana to win and they deserved too. so often i see the better team lose these big games when they go past extra time.

i'd rather have boubacar barry than gareth barry

 

[toffeejack]

also football officials are the worst in any sport. you have a linesman's who sole job in a pen shootout is to make sure the keeper is still on his line when the kick is taken. final missed pen, keeper is two or three yards off his line when it was taken. are they thick or just seriously incompetant?

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Barça looking rampant at the moment. Athletic tried but couldn't live with them.

 

[Kantareller]

yep, IC will win on pens

How right you were..

 

[Bowjangles]

Nice to see Fellaini do well, odds stacked against to begin with but slowly winning round the knuckle draggers. Fine player and a great alternative when rolling the dice of tactics.

yeah yeah i know the story the majority of the time i say something like this and put a bet on it dosn't happen, but whenever i don't bet it does happen ha

Best I've ever seen Messi play last night.

 

[Ring master]

Elche have just scored one heck of a goal in spanish game

 

[LinekersLegs]

Best I've ever seen Messi play last night.

And yet just a few weeks ago it looked like Enrique had lost the dressing room and was well on his way to losing his job as well.

Funny old game.

Not saying much mate, I'd rather have Barry from Eastenders. His sheer girth would surely stop more than Barry does.

 

[deipnosophist]

Don't forget Barry from Auf Wiedersehen Pet...he'd be decent

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Hang on, did Ivory Coast actually manage to win something?

Well done lads, only about 6 years too late for it to really mean anything, but well done all the same!
