Lol who was that for us that kicked the ball right at the ref after the final whistle?

 

Melano's smug smile after he flailed his arms and embellished that was the worst part

 

Messi's beard really is a thing of beauty. He should keep it.

 

He really has come so far from THIS look

 

I have Chile in the draw but there is no way I'm rooting against Messi tonight.

Who got Argentina? Go you.

 

I still like that one interview where it was like, "You've changed your look, gotten more muscular, better hair. What did you do?" And he replied, "I stopped eating pizza."

 

I think it's Mark.

 

We could all take a page from his book

 

If I could make as much weekly as he does, I'd give up everything but water, celery, and chicken breast if that's what it took.

 

me, reading this, eating pizza on a couch my butt has called home for much of the evening

 

this is my tenth soccer match this weekend. earlier i was dipping animal crackers into nutella. kindred.

 

lol at the Chilenos thinking that wasn't a yellow a bit earlier

I hate athletes

 

Federico >>>

 

What was that narrative about Higuain missing easy goals in massive finals being the only thing that's kept Messi from having the trophies?

 

We can all blame Higuian if Argentina lose tonight, right?

 

Vidal is one of the best midfielders in the world. Messi is making him look foolish right now.

 

Red card already.

 

Messi in god mode tonight

 

That sucks.

A bit soft, but idk if I have a huge problem with the call. Just a bummer for the game.

 

Agreed all around. It's a yellow if it's his first card, so it should be a yellow if it's his second, buuuuuut.

 

I'm not complaining

 

No matter what happens tonight for Chile, they'll always hold a special place in my heart in this tournament for giving us 7-0.

 

This ref is fierce with the card tonight. I could see more players being sent off shortly.

 

There's no way this game doesn't end up 10 v 9 with Vidal going off.

 

This ref is shambolic.
