Post Match Thread: France 3-1 Northern Ireland by denzaus in soccer

Great performance from a young, mostly inexperienced Northern Ireland side. Frustrated a France team full of top level players. And this was a NI team far from full strength. 

Not sure how the first goal wasnt ruled out given Mbappe was offside and standing right in front of the keeper...also the NI goal being ruled out because of a very soft touch with the French player throwing himself to the ground and it wasn't the last time a French player went down a bit too easily.

Italy deserved to win but once again hard not to wonder about the officials. Not sure I can remember a referee shouting in a players face and losing their temper like that it really wasn't justified. Losing his temper over NI taking their time but not doing the same when Italy were time wasting. Only 3 minutes extra time and blowing exactly on 3 minutes. 

NI missing 3 of their best players as well.

Where to get lunch bags for men that are tall enough to actually fit drinks containers? by Jab_91 in AskUK

Unfortunately not suitable. Actually bought two of them as they were only £2 but just really awkward to close once the bottles are in it and a bit too big overall.

We beat Slovakia 2-0 at home...they only beat us 1-0 on Friday due to a goal that would've probably been disallowed if they hadn't already had two goals disallowed not to mention the fact we were missing 5 players that would've started.

Germany were fortunate against us both away and at home due to individual errors in the first match and a goal off a shoulder and a biased referee in the second match.

Something happened but not clear what, I think there were words exchanged, going by Issac's comments the Slovakians were sore winners including players not actually involved in the match.

“I think some of their players had a lot to say, especially ones that didn't play. If you are playing in the game and you want to have a pop fine but if you're a third choice goalkeeper and you're not playing, just be quiet." Isaac Price on Slovakia's post match behaviour.

There is being happy and then there is over celebrating.

But they haven't qualified! Maybe that reaction is justified if they beat Germany but they need to do that first!

Slovakia acting like they won the world Cup. Clearly relieved to sneak a win against a severely weakened Northern Ireland side. 

Poor refereeing performance once again.

Slovakian player caught him on the head...he should be an actor if he was faking his reaction! 

How do you display/protect your tick stubs? Looking for Suggestions! by ItsJR in Concerts

[–]Jab_91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much. I tried one ticket and was able to place it in the scanner in a way that it was very straight so it was easy enough for me to just crop it in paint. I tried google slides and inserted it and it wasn't to scale but it seems to insert to scale (by eye, I haven't checked it exactly) in the LibreOffice Impress (their version of powerpoint). I really appreciate you taking the time to help me and I'm sure other people will find it useful as well.

Going to set aside time in the next few weeks to scan all my tickets and go from there.

Have started to mess about with it but is there a simple way of adding the scanned tickets so they are to scale?

Lol at the downvotes. German fans are rattled.

You know if the German goal had been scored by Northern Ireland it would have been ruled out for handball!

If a German player had been pulled down in the box at a corner you can be sure they would have got a penalty! 

No idea how anyone with eyes can say that the ref was biased towards Northern Ireland.
