Okay boys, here we go against the defending World Cup champs.

 

[dash]

Crepeau has had a great first half in goal for

 

[dash]

Oh man, Canada comes very close to opening the scoring. Damn you Martinez lol

 

[dash]

Argentina taking forever to come out for the 2nd half.

 

[dash]

They only took 2 minutes to open the scoring, though

 

[dash]

Great save Yukon Cornelius!!

 

[dash]

Jonathan David, hit the net on that header.

Well, that's an obvious foul not given to Canada just outside the box. VAR check doesn't change anything. Wonder if it's any different if it's an Argentine player being fouled by Canada

 

[dash]

That was a nice team goal by Argentina. 2-nil

 

[dash]

Incredible lol

 

[dash]

That was quite a response by Ukraine in the 2nd half to get all three points versus Slovakia. These Euro 2024 games with the rare exception have been highly entertaining.

Poland vs. Austria in Berlin coming up shortly. Couldn't have said that in 1939.

Next time Bombito, take out old man Messi even harder.

I heard Halford talk about this as well ... the thing is though ... the VAR check was for a foul inside the box (penalty check is all they can check for) ... and it wasnt ... so no free kick to canada

dont get me wrong ... ref missed the initial foul outside the box ...but VAR cant change that

bet you good money they called Bombito Negrito

He's not wrong...

Austria took the lead, but Poland equalizes just now. Another fun game, so much better than the recent World Cup in Qatar.

VAR would have also caught Henry's handball versus Ireland that greatly helped France advance to the 2010 World Cup.

Lewandowski looks like he's about to come into the game...That was a quick yellow card for Robert (throwing elbows lol)
