FIFA World Cup Russia 2018

Ah! Yes, sure! Way better!

And I think there also the fact that some yellow (or red) card are tactical fouls, blocking the opponent from going towards the goal. Then it’s some sort of reward for teams who prefer playing instead of blocking game making fouls.

Yes, a coin toss.

Meanwhile, give a toss = a British version of give a hoot :smiley:

Oh, welcome back.

Was I gone? I didn´t notice.

You might want to know that my Fantasy Football team passes group stage and I only have to buy new goalkeepers

Usually hoots are not given. What about tosses?

Indeed. However if fair play points are equal then a toss decides the fate of the teams. Which seems so unfair…

That’s correct, they’re both mostly used in the negative.

Still kinda curious who you were refering to as Peter Lorre in the german team? Was it Mesut Özil because of the eyes?

Yes… Özil. I remember him from the last cup and my wife and I both thought he kind of looked like Lorre. Must be some resemblance around the eyes…

A friend compared him to Data once and she said that might be why he´s so good.

Portugal out, so no “Simpsons prediction”, Spain out, so no “Guga’s dream prediction”.
Now, if only France, Brazil, England and Uruguay could do me a favor and lose, I’d be grateful.

It’s been a good tournament for under-dogs so far…
Also now most of the favourites are all on one side of the table (Uruguay, France, Brazil, Belgium), so one of the teams from the “weaker” side (Russia, Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, Croatia, Colombia, England) will be in the final.

Who knows? Perhaps the finale will be Belgium-England again, but this time they’ll both try to win for a change…
