On kinja? Puhlease. We’re all armchair quarterbacks here.

After regulation an additional 30 minutes was added. That is after 90 minutes of running around a 1.76 acre (7,140m) pitch with only a 15 minute break in between and 3 regulation substitutions.

Individual greatest don’t win tournaments. Just ask Missi.

Pepe over the past 6 years has been one of the cleanest players in La Liga. The kickout against the Getafe player and 10 match ban happened in 2009. He has cleaned up his game immensely. Don’t confuse tough tackling with dirty play. The play acting, however, is truly pathetic though.

From what I saw the player coming closest to a complete stop was Sanches. A stutter is allowed, a complete stop isn’t.

It had to happen at some point. We knew all along. With all the hatred toward Ronaldo it made sense.

Nothing is wrong with that only if you’re into dudes.

Can you use jello?

That was a very good article.

That was oddly satisfying.

Exactly, I can’t imagine all the work they did on the Virtual Boy simply stopped. Somebody mustve been tinkering with all that research.

Jabulani was.

Juninho Pernambucano.

Not sure what altering the ball means from the original question. But guess you never heard of Juninho Pernambucano. He had an insane conversion rate and keepers feared him on the dead-ball. Not an NBA watcher but might be comparable.

The Beast Wars/Machines did not skew younger.

Robots in disguise.

I just happen to agree with most pundits that Zizou’s goal enscapulated his total brilliance in one magical moment and was one of the finest goals ever scored. Knowing more about football than you doesn’t make me arrogant, just a better authority on it than you. No need to be bitter about that. It happens. If it makes…

A volley off the weaker foot from a looping cross near 30ft high with that sort of placement in the CL finals. If you’re going to argue a half bicycle bouning along comes anywhere near Zizou’s strike then there really is no hope of you.

It used to be reserved for truly spectacular once in a lifetime type goals that mere mortals would never be able to pull off. Usually powerful and/or graceful well placed beautiful strikes. Think about scoring on the most beautiful women in the world.

Me too.
