Guess what, Batavians equalised. Game is gaining momentum, at last.

Allright allright, I'll watch it 

[Maladict]

Oh great 

[Duque de Bragança]

More VAR fun! Though yesterday will be hard to beat.

Clément Turpin is supposed to be a good referee, as far as French referees so. Say, better than Marc Bata(rd).

[Duque de Bragança]

So seven (!) minutes of stoppage time. No game-changing VAR after the cancelled goal, with the possible penalty for the Netherlands. Would have been penalty for les Bleus I guess. 

[Duque de Bragança]

Nice failure in the money time for the Batavians.

[Maladict]

Yeah, some dreadful finishing in the second half

[Duque de Bragança]

Of course, Furor Batavicus coupled to an English failure leads to an opportunistic goal. 

PS: this is an own goal actually 

[Duque de Bragança]

I guess the English are still very good at putting themselves into trouble without any foreign help.

Well well well, a final against our favourite Angstgegner.

Another fluke by England.  Game over now at 3-1 with only 5 minutes of overtime left.

Really a shame that Portugal does not get to play against them.

Well well well, a final against our favourite Angstgegner.

Did not know this synonym of bête noire.

Put up some avatars, guys, it's so weird when two avatar-less posters are chatting.

I think the avatar drive is busted right now.

Is freaky though.
