Colombia should only have 9 men. Though the England player who did the little stamp was lucky not to go off too, but even then we'd still have one more!

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 03/07/2018 20:26

Colombia will enough yellows for some bunting soon.

LetsGoFlyAKiteee · 03/07/2018 20:27

All these cheating and cards aside... After seeing Japan yesterday kinda glad we didn't play them..

agedknees · 03/07/2018 20:27

There are 2 Sanchez’s. I thought the ref was gonna get clobbered.

Amanduh · 03/07/2018 20:27

5 seperate players have got yellows.
They’re getting worse.
They’ll either make us make a big mistake, or lose the plot completely and get sent off. Ref needs to get more on top of it now before the game is lost

alibongo5 · 03/07/2018 20:27

No Colombian has been booked twice. All different players.

mangomama91 · 03/07/2018 20:27

I have never watched such a dirty game of football!

MissionItsPossible · 03/07/2018 20:28

Good. 5 of them on no more strikes then hopefully

agedknees · 03/07/2018 20:28

Bastards

Amanduh · 03/07/2018 20:29

Or they’ll just badly injure someone and get a yellow Hmm

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 03/07/2018 20:30

I hope one of Colombia fucks gets a red.

WhiteHartLane · 03/07/2018 20:31

The Spain Holland final a few years ago was one of the worst matches I've ever seen for foul play.
This is the worst game of the tournament though and hopefully fans of the other nations will be rooting for England now if they weren't before.

agedknees · 03/07/2018 20:33

I apologise for swearing, sorry.

MaureenMLove · 03/07/2018 20:33

Late to the party, but I'm just home from watching first half in the pub and DH is working upstairs, so I'm on my own. I can't breathe!!! (And I've drunk too much to be acceptable on a Tuesday night!Grin)

ToffeeUp · 03/07/2018 20:35

Swearing allowed agedknees

MissionItsPossible · 03/07/2018 20:36

@agedknees

Fuck apologising for swearing! They deserve to be sworn at!

@MaureenMLove

I’m with you! Grin

ToffeeUp · 03/07/2018 20:38

Netherlands v Portugal 2006, 16 yellows and 4 reds, that was awful

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 03/07/2018 20:39

You stupid twat Lingard.

ToffeeUp · 03/07/2018 20:39

Lingard! Just get up!

MaureenMLove · 03/07/2018 20:40

How much swearing? Because I feel the C word coming on, there is no fucking justice if those C.... get an equaliser!!

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 03/07/2018 20:41

Maureen, I will drop the C bomb. Warning you now!

Amanduh · 03/07/2018 20:41

We need to focus and stop giving them easy balls to run with

MissionItsPossible · 03/07/2018 20:41

10 mins left... I suspect things will start to get more rough and desperate now..

LetsGoFlyAKiteee · 03/07/2018 20:41

Finally a change!

MissionItsPossible · 03/07/2018 20:42

I will say the c word many, many times. If it was a fair game then fair enough but it hasn’t been. England hasn’t been innocent in foul play but Colombia has been absolutely shocking
