Other Sports

Boy, Palace really squandered a golden opportunity there.

I have thoughts. But I also have beers. Will check back later.

I have no thoughts other than “this is pretty fucking cool” and “I’m glad I’m not playing in it”

That had to be extra miserable for the goal keepers. Also they must have used a Zamboni machine to clear the pitch between the breaks.

ETA: They used actual snowplows.

One day after being left out of the England squad, Tyrick let his feet do the talking. They said “fuck you.”

Scotland with a 1-0 lead at the half over Denmark. Somehow they haven’t conceded yet, but it sure feels like it’s coming. Scotland needs the outright win for automatic WC qualification, so it would behoove them to find the net again.

How are you watching it? As far as I can tell it’s only of “Fubo Sports” which is not a channel I’m familiar with.

Prime. It’s advertised as “Fubo Sports on Prime” for me.

And now Denmark have been awarded a penalty, which they convert to draw even.

Thanks. Scotland managed to get the lead back with 10 minutes to go!

And then promptly surrender the equalizer.

And then I looked up and Scotland pulled ahead again.

I am making a note to not miss the final ten minutes of any Scotland match going forward.

And then Scotland catches Schmiechel off his line with a lob right on the halfway line to secure advancement!

“They will drink Glasgow dry tonight!”

Thanks for the tip Austro! That was terrific.

It was a really entertaining game, and I’m really glad Scotland finally gets to attend a WC again.

The last time Scotland qualified for the Cup I was a student at the University of Glasgow.

In case any of you idiots was wondering what I look like, that’s me and the president of Panama the last time we qualified for the World Cup, which was the first time. I have some connections within the mundo futbolístico there, and I wandered down onto the field after the game. I was meandering around down there celebrating with the players and everyone else and all of a sudden I’m face to face with the president of the country. He’s walking around exactly the same as I am, no security, no nothing, he’s in a state of total euphoria, just like me.

Vamo vamo Panamá!

I’m the guy on the left.

I miss @Limey, soccer talk has fallen off a cliff during his sabbatical. This thread was my main source of EPL info.
