World Cup: R16: Belgium vs. Japan, 7/2/2018

[Luigi Habs]

Two easy saves for Kagashima make him look like the hero.

Indeed. Lukaku had a wide open net and he heads it right at the keeper.

Chadli has been great since he came in. He should start over Carrasco.

 

[GKJ]

This is incredible

 

[Firsov99]

Japan has to be in some phenomenal physical shape to press on the 89th minute.

 

[ViD]

It really sucks that ****hole teams like Russia or Brazil will make it, while one of these won't. ****ing shame.

Ever watched Euro 04 and 16?

 

[varsaku]

Goalie has to hold onto the ball more!

All it takes is one rebound and its over

 

[GKJ]

Japan has to be in some phenomenal physical shape to press on the 89th minute.

And waited as long as they did to sub

 

[Eisen]

I really like Inui.

 

[Firsov99]

And waited as long as they did to sub

Yep. Impressive.

Watching 30 extra minutes of spain/russia was brutal, but I wouldn't mind ET in this game.

 

[varsaku]

Holy ****. great game!

I didn't expect this game to be this close. I expected it to be around 2-1 or 2-0 Belgium.

 

[Eisen]

Yep. Impressive.

That was completely normal back in the day. Not anymore.

I feel like both teams would try and score in extra time here. Spain/Russia were content to waste the clock.

 

[hatterson]

de bruyne again with a terrible attempt to spring Lukaku and then giving away a foul for no reason.

 

[hockeyisgud]

that Japanese guy has crazy eyes

 

[trellaine201]

Wow good shot

 

[Deen]

How does extra time work? I get the play stoppages and injury time, but do the refs just call it at their own discretion?

 

[Blender]

Man Honda went for goal and got pretty close.

 

[KrejciMVP]

almost got that

 

[hatterson]

hazard next to lukaku in a wall is kinda funny.

 

[trellaine201]

Ohhh f***

 

[Blender]

Chadli!

 

[davemess]

What a great counter attack

 

[KrejciMVP]

impressive Belgium

 

[hockeyisgud]

lol wow what a game

 

[saskriders]

What a game
