Live Match Discussion 2024/25

[Squeak]

Crazy Nations League semi between Spain and France. Spain went 4-0 up before France staged a bit of a comeback, finished 5-4 to Spain who now face Portugal in the final on Sunday

What a fantastic game that was. Spain were rampant and some their football simply magical. The quality of player they have showed in some of the first touches, the vision and the execution. France couldn't live with them but then somehow managed to turn the game around to get back in it. Wonderful exhibition. Hopefully the final is as good but usually it is a cagey affair.

I am away in Yorkshire this weekend but hopefully will get to see some of the final as its on ITV1. Would like a Portugal win but can't see beyond Spain

Brilliant, I only thought it was on Amazon Prime and I’m not paying extra for it.
I’ll be watching that, a bit like Brazil v Argentina, Germany v Holland, should be a bit of an edge.

How is Ronaldo still starting for Portugal?

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

Premier League VAR would have spent 10 minutes and then disallowed both of those goals.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Can’t see how the first one isn’t disallowed

 

[Jack Regan]

The Spanish one should definitely have been ruled out. If Oyarzabal isn't there the keeper just shouts and claims the ball.

We’ve just an absolute mess of an offside rule. We’re disallowing goals like Kilmans because a player is near a GK but influencing nothing and then we’ve a forward actually influencing a defender and the GK both physically and postionally yet it’s allowed because, from what I assume, he has his hands in the air

Great side Spain but don’t know why I find them highly annoying

Portuguese double teapots. Normal

Atrocious from Cucurella. An absolute con man of a footballer.

The fact he’s getting boo’d every touch is amusing.

Nice to see Ruben playing again.
