🇪🇸 Spain v Russia 🇷🇺 - @lifeintheslowlane v @gavstar - Sunday 1st July 15:00 BBC One

Boring but in some ways fascinating.

Isco is everywhere probing and looking for gaps but the Russians are so disciplined.

Extra time will be a lottery.

Spain 800+ passes
Russsia 200+

Pressure building.

Third corner in a row.

Another 30 minutes of Spanish possession to go before penalties. :lou_facepalm_2:

The arrogance of the man.

Russia will get 3 in the first half of extra time…

…or they’ll be heading for the gulag.

You reckon the Russians have anything left in the tank? They were on their knees with 10 minutes to go!
As Peter D said not a game for purists but you can’t take your eyes off it
We will see a football first now.

It’s coming…

…I think.

VAR.

Pen?

That’s bollocks.

That was clear holding that spun Ramos around.

Poor.

I think you’ll find officially it will be termed 50/50 which is fair as Ramos and the Ruskie have been walking-out together for the last 3 weeks.

I’m not letting inconvenient facts like that change my anti-VAR views.
