Futbol thread.

Denmark vs Ukraine was abandoned after Christian Eriksen appears to have had another heart attack on the pitch. Thankfully the pacemaker he got after the previous one appears to have done it's job and he was able to walk himself off. Even so, that has to be it for him now, right? Anyone letting him play after that is fucking insane.

Its pretty sad that his career will end this way. Was hoping he could play this world cup and then either go back to Ajax or Odense Boldklub and finish his career where it started

Shambolic that the American posters in this thread are all fat and need fat people shirts even by American inflated sizing.

Ok euro poor. Go pay 3 of whatever unvaluable currency you use to put some ice in your drink

It's whatever style was the thing at the time. My shirt from 1996 is a Large but fits like XXL since that's how they were back then.

Speaking of shirts, I've been wondering since 1998 how Argentina's goalkeeper was able to wear a black shirt when they had their dark blue away shirts on against England. Seemed like a color clash.

So with the world cup starting soon I wonder: How hyped are people in your country, around you, etc and how hyped are you?

The hype is certainly there down here in Brazil, but I feel it's been more "cautious" ever since 7x1 happened.

Back in the day, all freaking streets were painted in the national colors, with flags and decorations hung on strings across the lampposts and whatnot. Nowadays, those painted streets diminished in number, and it's mostly a sort-of corporate thing to do that in supermarkets and other commercial establishments.





But whatever, people will still watch the games, and the celebrations and fireworks will still be heard across the streets whenever Brazil scores and wins a match.
