World Cup 2022 Japan v Croatia, Brazil v South Korea - Monday 5th

[sonofbunk]

Pretty decent second half. Neither team has decided to sit and wait for extra time.

 

[Truelightblue]

Japan have an ability about them as a team where they can find a sudden burst and score late on.. That's all it takes. Just an inner belief.. See what happens

 

[DavieM]

Japan the better team but Croatia could nick this. Whoever plays them next would fancy their chances though.

 

[Bluebeard]

Poor second half. Each team looks to have settled for extra time and pens by the look of it. Neither team wants to lose.

 

[rossgers]

Jenas just opens his mouth and shite floods out

So which is it?

 

[the_baron]

Barisic seems to have spent most of this second half lying hurt on the ground.

 

[Truelightblue]

That could have been the moment..

 

[The Crimson King]

Barisic shag the commentators wife or something?

He's not been brilliant but every time he's on screen there's been a wee dig.

 

[Awritenobad]

Honest to God, man.

He’s such a fucking drama Queen.

 

[CrunchBear]

Borna almost on that

 

[BajanBear]

Borna to score the winning penalty.

 

[Arlo]

Barisic shag the commentators wife or something?

He's not been brilliant but every time he's on screen there's been a wee dig.

He’s just not very good

 

[Boab4]

So which is it?

It’s always the opposite of what Bluebeard says.

 

[Marlo Stanfield]

Colak very unlucky not to be in this side

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Colak getting an honourable mention!

 

[hammer17]

if Barisic has to play extra time he will be like a OAP trying to run

he hasn’t played a game in almost 3 weeks

 

[GavCo]

Hope borna scores the winner in the 98th minute

 

[Aribo17]

Mitoma is very good surprising he doesn’t start

 

[sami_rfc]

End to end stuff, could go either way.

 

[Bluebeard]

It’s always the opposite of what Bluebeard says.

Steady on

 

[Pirlo]

To be fair there are a lot of times where Barisic looks like a player who isn’t cut out for high pressure games. Not all the time, but he often looks completely flustered on big occasions.

 

[Sherbet Dab]

That song the Japan fans keep singing over and over sounds like “oooooooohhhhhh oh get tae fk, oh get tae fk oh get tae fk”

 

[BluenoseAL]

Jenas just opens his mouth and shite floods out

he's a complete and utter c*nt

 

[FriendsDontLie]

Decent game this

 

[strathavenbear]

That non stop chant that the Japanese sing, is as annoying as the Senegal drums.

 

[Goity]

Do the Japanese fans not have any other song? %^*& me that's grating.

 

[Bluebeard]

The commentators are so biased towards Japan. Totally unbalanced and unprofessional. The co commentator in particular

 

[Mabearette]

Come on Croatia

 

[Bluebeard]

Do the Japanese fans not have any other song? %^*& me that's grating.

I’m amazed they even have a song. They have a fan base who scream like teenagers at a Beatles gig in the early 60s when they win a throw in. Very odd.

 

[Follow1996]

Barisic been absolutely dead on his feet since the hour mark and we have some posters on here argue the squad is just fatigued and not unfit, he’s not played In 3 weeks and is the most unfit player on the park in contrast to last season.

 

[Kuznetsov's Curly Hair]

Do the Japanese fans not have any other song? %^*& me that's grating.

It's like the crowd noises during closed door games under Covid

 

[Pollokbear]

Japanese singing is doing my box in. One song on repeat for 90 mins.
Only consolation is that I can sing Terry Munro repeatedly in time with it.

 

[Luthgibear]

Teammates are not too keen to pass to Borna.

 

[Nizzy72]

Do the Japanese fans not have any other song? %^*& me that's grating.

How about a couple of Beatles numbers?

It's always seemed to me that every single Japanese person loves The Beatles (for some odd reason).

 

[dcbear]

Hopefully Croatia get a last minute winner when the ball is clearly out but VAR gives it anyway.

 

[DocStone]

That song the Japan fans keep singing over and over sounds like “oooooooohhhhhh oh get tae fk, oh get tae fk oh get tae fk”

And those are the words I am hearing now, no matter what they are

 

[Arlo]

Teammates are not too keen to pass to Borna.

He struggles at SPL level against dross, his only attacking attribute is crossing when the ball is on a plate to him. That or turning back which wouldn’t help a side trying to score.

 

[Jogbear]

How did Colak not make the squad. Severely lacking a threat up front

 

[Nizzy72]

Big Borna on the deck again.

 

[Awritenobad]

Big Borna on the deck again.

Preparing for penalties here…

…by practicing kidding on he’s injured.

 

[cm72]

Always find these kind of posts a bit moronic

 

[Arlo]

How did Colak not make the squad. Severely lacking a threat up front

You’d have to think he’d be in with a shout had he kept scoring

 

[BajanBear]

Japan fans the Aberdeen of the WC. They only know one song.

 

[scooter70]

Free £5 bet on Maeda anytime, Perisic anytime and Barisic card @75/1.

Get booked ffs Borna!

You got excited there eh!!

 

[Kirbys House]

How about a couple of Beatles numbers?

It's always seemed to me that every single Japanese person loves The Beatles (for some odd reason).

Yoko Ono didn't

 

[SDF]

Preparing for penalties here…

…by practicing kidding on he’s injured.

We're all thinking it if we're honest.

 

[Aribo17]

England only team to keep a clean sheet in the Last 16 so far?

 

[TN8]

That song the Japan fans keep singing over and over sounds like “oooooooohhhhhh oh get tae fk, oh get tae fk oh get tae fk”

Can't unhear that now

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Big Borna on the deck again.

He's certainly been through the wars in this game!
