World Cup 2018: The best party money could buy (until 2022)!

No, they do. Reset happens at the beginning of the semifinals. So you can still be suspended from the semifinal due to accumulation, but you cannot be suspended from the final due to accumulation.

OK, thank you.

Portugal is very lucky. Could have very well been out with that last Iranian miss in the 94th and from how they were describing the rule (not that this WC has been great for referee analysis) Ronaldo should be out for next game.

One of the loudest collective cheers I've ever heard when that miss happened. Another 4-5 minutes of jubilation when stoppage time ended.

I'm in Tel Aviv, so it makes a bit more sense.

I thought from another WC that the plus ones didn't extend across rounds. So for example if you got it in game 2 of the Group you were out for game 3, but if you got it in game 3 you were OK for the first knock out game.

Probably wasn't clear, I meant the rule of contact to the head when not playing the ball rather than the accumulation. Throwing bows to the face in isolation usually isn't great to do if you want to stay in the game, but it does help your cause to be a top 2 player in the world.

Believe Australia can advance on goals scored with a 1-0 win and France beating Denmark 1-0. Not unreasonable.

@winsford99: It was a vicious play and the poor dear who got brushed had to collapse until medical attention came. If I ever get a terminal ailment I want soccer trainers to treat me. They revive the near-dead repeatedly. https://twitter.com/rcamcole/status/1011521453420875776

@rcamcole: Oh, FFS. Ronaldo simply used a “swim” move to get past the defender who was aggressively backing into him. https://twitter.com/barcatimes/status/1011334410254344192

Argentina currently going through. If Nigeria equalize they can go through. And if Iceland score, they can go through.

Argentina needs to win 2-0 to not care much about the other game...

Go Nigeria!

Then again, I was very much hoping for major upsets- it would have been awesome for Sweden to beat Germany, and Iran to beat Portugal. I was hoping to see Brazil go down, too.

Too much domination from the same teams. Gets old.
 
Re: World Cup 2018: The best party money could buy (until 2022)!

If there is supposed to be a standard and you let far worse go in the box throughout the tournament in regard to holding I don't see how you call that one.
 
Re: World Cup 2018: The best party money could buy (until 2022)!

Now, if the standard was set from the get go that that little grab will be called, fine. But to start making that call at this juncture with what's on the line...don't like it at all.
 
Re: World Cup 2018: The best party money could buy (until 2022)!

France-Argentina and possibly Brazil-Germany in round of 16
 
Re: World Cup 2018: The best party money could buy (until 2022)!

Jesus, I just saw the ARG goal 2. I think Raytheon makes a missile like that.
 
Re: World Cup 2018: The best party money could buy (until 2022)!

Iceland and Nigeria are eliminated.

Funny how the scenarios work out during the final day. When both games were tied Iceland had to win by two, but when Argentina was up they simply needed to win. But, had to press too hard and gave up an easy counter to aceparía to finish it off.

With my 538 fandom in the Ticos out, and now my chosen fandom in Iceland gone, I guess it's off to root for Japan/Senegal in group H.
 
Re: World Cup 2018: The best party money could buy (until 2022)!

Group F could be quite interesting tonight and hopefully will deliver.

SER-BRA should also provide fireworks unless SUI go up 2+ early with that game still tied and SER then decides to clamp it down.

Am I hearing "Lola" from the Kazan stands?
