Soccer is boring they said.

do they make up injury time number randomly? I remember no injury delay here. Other games too. It's like they give em less time when there were delays

 

[reno cool]

Now to eliminate the other big name stiff

Wow, the left side of the bracket is much tougher. So Mexico has to beat Brazil, Belgium and France. And Spain gets to play Russia Denmark and Sweden

The recommendation is to give 30 seconds per every sub

That's why the joke with the English fans was that it was the best lost in England World Cup history

oh, I thought it was for actual injury delays. I figured subs were included to waste time on purpose, that's why you only get 3 of em

I mean I like that they are different than all the timed sports and usually let any play finish before ending a half. The stupid penalty replays are already getting annoying. ...I don't want em adding 13 minutes for every foking thing. Just add 1-2 minutes unless there was a delay due to injury, then go 4-6. But this game there was nothing, should've been 0, 1-2 ok, 4 is too much
