It could be too frustrating for Messi if he couldn't give Argentina the Cup a 3rd time when there is so much expectation on him.
I think that's half the problem, everyone expects so much from him all the time. Heck! the man is only human.

Maybe he missed that penalty shot against Chile because there was too much pressure and expectation against him. I still couldn't believe he missed that penalty shot, but like you said he's only human. :)

What a dull game that was.

I guess it wasn't so unfortunate that I missed that match because I was at work. Maybe I'll just watch the highlights on youtube. ;)

I doubt there would be enough highlights to make more than a 10 second clip. It was that dull I almost switched the TV off.  :down:

Sounds like the game is not worth watching :sherlock: Maybe I'll &watch Barcelona and the Spanish football league instead. ⚽

That would be an understatement. Watch some paint drying, that would be much more exciting.
Safe to say that was probably the worst game of football I have ever seen.

Iceland's football team is working on something similar, except after job well done.

I think the New Zealand haka should be removed from rugby matches. It's okay if the players stand up and sing their national anthem, but in my opinion the haka is a bit too much  :eyes:
Why? I've seen it a few times and it is always a joy to watch, it usually gets a round of applause from the home fans here.  :)

They were the highlight of the entire Euro 2016 for me.  :yes:

I'd never seen it before. (To my knowledge rugby was never on TV when I had TV, except maybe if they play it during the Olympics.) I think I prefer it to the American practice of cheerleading. :)

The cheerleaders are much better looking though.  ;)

That's interesting! Maybe more teams will do something similar prior to a game or after winning a match :D

I think it is more entertaining if the opposing team also perform something similar. The way it is right now, while New Zealand team do their haka the opposing team just stand there looking at them.

Has the Pokemon Go craze taken off where you are? Everyone with a mobile seems to have become hooked on it round here, even folk who I thought were normal, sensible adults.

Just don't get it myself, but at least it is getting the kids outdoors, so it can't be all that bad. It has been good for Nintendo that's for sure as it was reported that their stock jumped by 70%, boosting its market value from £13bn to £19.6bn.

Wish I had thought of it.

Yup. 2 of my coworkers asked me if I play the new Pokemon :eyes: Luckily I'm more into sci-fi or sports game so I have no interest in Pokemon.

Agreed.When I was a kid we play soccer or other sports after school. Most kids nowadays stay home after school so they can play their video games.

Saw my neighbour who is retired, coming back from his daily walk the other day, so I enquired as to where he had been. Turns out he had been out catching Pokemon with his granddaughter all day.  :eek:

Yep we were the same when we were kids. We would be outdoors until it got too dark to play, which was quite normal back then.

It's a different environment nowadays I suppose. Some parents would rather their kids were at home where they know they are safe.  :(

Imagine being shipwrecked during the war and having that as your only source of food.

You should look at the rest of the channel. If there's any intestinal problems to be had, I'm sure he's had them long before eating this. :lol:
