Serbia vs Switzerland - Match Thread (22nd June, 7pm)

Probably on my own here, certainly if Twitter is anything to go by, but I’ve thought for a while that Kilbane is one of the better co-commentators.

 

Admittedly, the bar is set rather low.

[Vulpecula]

I'll be happy when Serbia and Croatia depart. Commentary makes me feel like fumigating the house. It's a pity there aren't names like Arsic, Balsic, Fanyic, Pubic (pronounced properly  ) to make it more amusing...

Well, even if we should draw today (which looks unlikely at the moment), we'd still have to beat Costa Rica.

And look how tough it was for the Serbs and Brazilians to grind out a result there...

 

We beat Panama 6-0 in a friendly, though. Similar style of play, just an opposition of lesser quality.

 

In any case, it's going to be a tough ask for the remaining 135 minutes in this group.

Keep the faith.

[Vacamion]

 

End to end.

 

Great stuff.

• Hahaha, I just said to the Mrs 'what's that twat on about, he was a shite footballer' when he criticised someone that misplaced a pass  Different strokes!

Brilliant defending by Akanji there! And Embolo has to start next game surely!? Has asked far more questions than Seferovic already.

Mitrovic reminds me of Cantona.

 

I hope he knows his Kung Fu.

Different side without that donkey

Had the feeling there was a last minute winner in this, what a game.

Utterly suicidal defending from Serbia, and why?!

[MC Prussian]

Talking about a sucker punch.

[foxfanazer]

Wow! We need this guy

Great composure from Shaqiri there, under pressure it so easy to shoot straight earlier than he did. 

[MC Prussian]

I feel much better now, going into the Costa Rica game.

 

Still...

[Strokes]

Fair play, it was a great goal.

[bovril]

Had to be Shaqiri with the winner.

Jesus. Pessimistic moi? 

[ScouseFox]

this has been a very fun little game. not sure how mitro didn’t get a penalty earlier on and don’t like switzerland but even so this has been decent.
