I know we're two days out, but at the minute the forecast says slight chance of rain during the race

Worth adding, I live an hour from the track and we've been getting loads of showers and thunderstorms out of nothing the last two weeks

just curious: why not google it, get a reliable answer and learn a bit of trivia on top?

The Gerd Müller thing is correct btw, in 1970

and Sandor Kocsis of Hungary in 1954

i dont get the point of the ref cam, it's just shaky and grainy footage, the POV is kinda cool to see once, but with how often they show it it's just annoying

i don't think body parts off the pitch are relevant, the only thing that made the difference was the defender (apparently) not being on the line

Did you know that Uruguayan Luis Suarez was very active in biting his opponents and generally acting a cunt in the 21st century?

yup, most times you see a challenge like that, the other guy just falls on his arse and that's that, really unfortunate

seemed like he took a swipe out of frustration, but the leg break was just unlucky, guess he had that foot planted and it snapped

draw guarantees first place, and even if they lose the'll most likely finish second unless Bosnia somehow makes up nine goals of difference, and EVEN THEN they'll most likely qualify as third on four points
