[McNamara That Ghost...]

Goes for a corner but Webb doesn't want it taken.

On to extra-time!

[Cripps_orig]

0-0 FT

Extra time it is

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cazorla has got this (if they don't make him take a pelanty).

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

That VT really was fascinating.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Not a bad effort from Jesus Navas that far out. Buffon there again though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torres to stay on for 120 minutes?

Del Bosque. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Jackarooney whacks the post!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Me. :lol:

Should never have doubted Del Bosque.

Torres off, Javi Martinez on.

[Cripps_orig]

Torres to stay on for 120 minutes?

Del Bosque. :doh:

He's just gone off

[Cripps_orig]

No striker for either team.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pique would have skied that without three defenders charging at him.

[Rors]

Pique :lol: What a utility man...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sergio Ramos does a Pique.

[Cripps_orig]

De Rossi is awesome

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Not a bad attempt by Jordi Alba on the volley.

[Rors]

This one has been a bit special..

[Cripps_orig]

Aquilani is terrible

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Freekick to Spain, dangerous area.

Old Man Pirlo trips Iniesta up.

[Cripps_orig]

That's shocking from Iniesta.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Ffs Webb.

That was a clear dive by iniesta.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Xavi. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Handball by Pique. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Keown loves centrebacks.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stay on your feet. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Crap shot from Mata.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Mata shoots just wide.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chiellini wants his motorbike I think. :unsure:

[Rors]

:faint:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Xavi shot saved on to the post, Javi Martinez across goal, it can't get turned in!

[Rors]

[Cripps_orig]

2 of the greatest keepers of our generation going head to head

[Rors]

Okay, Buffon was not comfortable with that one in the merest :lol:

--

Ah yes the Ronaldo I'll-Wait-To-Take-The-Final-Penalty Plan. That worked..

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cazorla encouraging the troops. :bow:

[Cripps_orig]

6-6

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bonucci.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bonucci blazes it over and wide!

[Munchies]

Gonna score comon

Edit : Fuck sake

[Rors]

Muh.

[Cripps_orig]

Bonucci sends it miles over

[fakeyank]

:banghead:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's all down to Jesus Navas.

Citeh. :lol:

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Bonucci. :doh:

The new R. Baggio I presume.

[Cripps_orig]

Navas to win it?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Spain are through to the final! Again!

Wow.

[Rors]

Inevitable.

[Cripps_orig]

And he scores.

Ffs

Come on Brazil

[Munchies]

Fucking hell

[Niall_Quinn]

Pisser.

[Rors]

Er, what Shearer?!

[Cripps_orig]

Shearer spot on as usual.

Is he now the best pundit?

With Hansen anonymous, it seems so

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Spain's domination is going to end at some point, surely?

If not, time to invent some new rules on football tbf.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

I take it we are all Brazil fans for the final.

[Cripps_orig]

I take it we are all Brazil fans for the final.

Pretty much

Spain are as boring as fuck.

The stoke of internationals

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Pretty much

Spain are as boring as fuck.

The stoke of internationals

Lucky fucks too. This should have been an embarrassing 4-1 loss at the end of regualtion time.

Italy. :doh:

For failing to avenge their terrible loss after being gifted a wonderful opportunity today.

[Cripps_orig]

All successful sides get lucky from time to time but I think it's fair to say that Spain can put most of their success down to luck rather than quality.

They bored the fuck out of everyone in South Africa on their way to becoming the worst world champions ever. Extremely lucky in the quarter final and final there.

Were outplayed v Portugal at Euro 2012.

One genuine world class player in Casillas who IMO is the best ever keeper. Take him out and they win f all.

Hope he has a stinker v brazil though

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Fuckloads of 'Jesus' Navas jokes making the rounds of twitter now.

A few funny, but majority quite shit.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

"@barcastuff: Iniesta and Neymar are on 6-man shortlist for the Golden Ball at the FIFA Confederations Cup. Others: Paulinho, Pirlo, Ramos, Suarez. [fifa]"

Iniesta. :haha:

How on earth did he make that shortlist?

[Cripps_orig]

And there is proof that people don't actually watch games.

He has been shocking.

[Munchies]

Hope Brazil can get the win.

Fuck Spain

[Cripps_orig]

Will miss both matches.

Spain :pal:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[Master Splinter]

Muslera :bow:.

Stunning finish.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Disallowed goal for Cavani. :lol:

[Master Splinter]

Hawkeye would show that as clipping the line. Astori's goal.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Steve Wilson blaming the lack of quality replays for not knowing who will be given the goal. Er they showed those replays when it first went in Steve.

[Master Splinter]

Uruguay 0-1 Italy. HT.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay 1-1 Italy, Cavani!

[Master Splinter]

Gargano :bow:.

[Master Splinter]

Suarez's through-balls are worse than Charlie Adam's.

Double save from Buffon to deny Forlan!

[Master Splinter]

Buffon :bow:.

He's back!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay 1-2 Italy, Diamanti! What a freekick.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Uruguay 2-2 Italy, Cavani! What a freekick!

Gilardino starting :haha:

Thought he retired/

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Why is the final at 11pm ?

Probably for time differences elsewhere right ?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Freekick to Uruguay, dangerous area.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

El Shaarawy for Italy.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Suarez time!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-2.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

De Sciglio has his saved!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Caceres has his saved by Buffon! :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Giaccherini makes it 3-2, Gargano has to score.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Buffon saves it and Italy finish third! :bow:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

I think I prefer it with just the one commentator, and none of the "banter".

Whichever fucker in the crowd kept screaming needs shooting though.

[Munchies]

Atleast Uruguay got the 4th place trophy, better than nothing isn't it ? :wave:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Seedorf. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lawro co-commentating. :banghead:

[Rors]

The trophy itself looks like the melon-and-custard mock up of the World Cup last seen on Fantasy Football League. ( :bow: )

[Munchies]

Lawro co-commentating. :banghead:

Lol

Ffs

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Spain's anthem gets a few boos. :lol:

[Munchies]

Cesc on the bench :pal:

[Rors]

One day I'd just like to them sing "Spain,Spain,Spain,Spain,Spain,Spain,Spain" etc in tune to this one. To see if Clive's paying attention..

[Boss]

Anyone have a working stream??

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hulk. :lol:

Trying to steal a goal.

Lawro using the word 'skittish'

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a chance for Oscar!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fight fight fight!

Why is Torres there?

[Munchies]

Should of hit the target atleast

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Casillas did well to stop Paulinho's shot from going in.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torres' header. :haha:

[Munchies]

Diving **** looked for a FK :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Arbeloa booked.

Fight fight fight!

[Munchies]

:haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Very good effort from Iniesta, Julio Cesar pushes it behind.

[GP]

Iniesta is great.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torres header, over.

[Rors]

Torres header, over.

Staunchion :bow:

[GP]

Neymar does like a dive. He'll have to cut that out if he wants to fit into the normal Barca culture.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ramos. :haha:

Suppose it was close enough from how far he struck it.

[Rors]

Oh dear Lawro.

[Munchies]

Wtf is this commentary :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Oscar somehow avoiding getting booked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sergio Ramos booked.

[Rors]

On the way down very early...

[GP]

SHUT UP LAWRO!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hulk. :haha:

[Rors]

Ug!

[Rors]

Xavi :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Casillas denies Fred!

Jordi Alba. :doh:

[GP]

Brazil would be formidable if they had a decent striker.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Iniesta. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Brazil are just scrotes really.

[Rors]

:faint:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a clearance from David Luiz!

[Munchies]

[Özil's Panoramic View]

David Luiz :bow:

Sensational defending.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Brazil 2-0 Spain, Neymar!

[Rors]

Oh and he's got it!

[Munchies]

NEYMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAr

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Neymar!!!!. :bow:

He's awefuckingsome.

[Özim]

Neymar, class act Barca have got another superstar on their hands.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

JFC!! Will someone stuff a sock in Stewart Robson's mouth please?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Whistle goes when Pedro was in. :lol:

Officials have been a bit shit.

2-0 HT.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Neymar, class act Barca have got another superstar on their hands.

Absolutely love this goal by him.

Made the pass and drifted into an offside position, but was alert enough to quickly get himself back onside and unmarked upon the return pass.

Then he just absolutely smashed it into the roof of the net.

[Munchies]

Gervinho would be offside

Should of bought Neymar

£70m warchest :pal:

[Rors]

Muslera :lol:

[Munchies]

Goal line tech :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Arbeloa hauled off, Azpilicueta on.
