Football (Soccer) Thread

Trying to listen to the game while at work, but my lack of familiarity with the sport makes it hard to follow.  Hard to visualize.

You have cable? If so you can watch it on tsn.ca. Minimize the screen so you can still "work"

No idea what my account info would be - should have checked for that earlier.

Whatever you use to log into your cable account (to check bills or whatever). If you're not set up you can do so now, access should be instantaneous.

They also have a mobile app that works ok. I use that since I don't have cable. The game is also on OTA CTV.

Canada's wasting too many chances.

[Threviel]

Mark my words!

In 2010 we only scored 8 goals in the whole competition. 

[HVC]

Fuck.

[Barrister]

Fuck

[Threviel]

Fuck. So unfair, Canada runs circles around the Belgians.

[Zoupa]

Canada bodied Belgium for 45 minutes, wasted so many chances and Belgians scored on their only chance of the 1st half.

Football sucks sometimes.

[Threviel]

According to the referee specialist on TV Canada should have had two more crystal clear penalties.

[Zoupa]

Looking at the replays, there could have been 3 penalties awarded to Canada instead of 1. Those were pretty clear fouls, I think. Not sure what VAR is doing...

[Gups]

According to the referee specialist on TV Canada should have had two more crystal clear penalties.

Watching on BBC (who are full of praise for Canada). One was deffo not a pen. - looked like it but Belgian got the ball first. Second arguable.

[Josephus]

Yeah the one on Lareya for sur was a penalty

[HVC]

According to the referee specialist on TV Canada should have had two more crystal clear penalties.

The one I thought was a bad call was when the defender tripper up the player by stepping on his foot. But VAR said no.

[Josephus]

It's gonna be a tough half. Canada needs to keep at it but the Belgians are gonna exploit any breaks.

Hey duque, Eustáquio is playing well, don't you think

*edit* I jinxed him.
