Santo Messi left the FCB some months ago. He's now playing here in France. A baguette bread lover, I read somewhere.

We’ll done, Lionesses! (What was Asllani doing playing for Sweden?!)

It was very difficult to watch or listen to the commentary, so many potential double entendres (dirty, box, semi,…). “Carry On Ladies Football” would have written itself.

Genuine question, what am I supposed to shout? Come on, ladies/girls/chappesses/…?

I ruled out “Come on, my totties!” early on.

Wonderful match. Correct result!

(No, it wasn’t handball! I wouldn’t have wanted to be in the German changing room after the match.)

Due to tight marital control, I agree with you.

That great goal by Geoff Hurst in 1966 was very iffy.

I know pretty much nothing about football when it is played with the feet, but quick google suggests the teethless player is Nobby Stiles who led England to win world cup in 1966.
