France v Honduras (Group E) Sunday 15th June 2014

[Lord Camomile]

who is richard keys when hes at home on twitter?

Do you mean who is he generally, or what's his Twitter name?

If the former, he's a twatface football presenter who left Sky after comments about Sian Massey, and now resides on TalkSport (I think?). If the latter, here be twatface.

he sounds like a charmer

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Well he is technologically challenged, like Jonathan Pearce. The goal-line technology uses cameras with 500 frames per second. It's better than the tv cameras - that's the whole point of it.

 

[Lo Siento.]

Honduras are charmers aren't they?

 

[Epico]

Penalty!

Sorry , just playing the Jonathan Pearce game

 

[JimW]

Goal of justice!

 

[Lord Camomile]

Oooh, knee on knee is rarely good

 

[Lord Camomile]

I missed Benzema's goal and the subsequent replays because I was trying to work out what happened to Evra

 

[Maggot]

benzema to get 3 hat tricks and france to win 17-0

He's got the first one.

 

[binka]

He's got the first one.

only got 2 goals... annoyingly... got £20 on benzema top scorer at 25/1

 

[Sunray]

17 to 1 for an impossible bet? Your bookie gives shit odds.

 

[The Boy]

He's got the first one.

second goal given as og by the keeper wasn't it?

 

[Maggot]

second goal given as og by the keeper wasn't it?

It was, but if I was Benzema, I'd be keeping the match ball.

 

[binka]

It was, but if I was Benzema, I'd be keeping the match ball.

he should have buried it. he was two yards out and hit the post

 

[big eejit]

Shame Costly hasn't made an error that's led to a goal.

 

[JimW]

Shame Costly hasn't made an error that's led to a goal.

Or Benson scored a smoking one

 

[The Boy]

It was, but if I was Benzema, I'd be keeping the match ball.

so would I. misread the past you were quoting and thought it related to a bet. bookie won't be parting out on hat trick.

basically you can just ignore me.

 

[strung out]

It was, but if I was Benzema, I'd be keeping the match ball.

You don't get to keep the match ball for only scoring two goals.

 

[Lord Camomile]

The tournament must still have an average above 3 goals per game

You don't get to keep the match ball for only scoring two goals.

You do if you can run fast enough and know a good hiding place

 

[juice_terry]

You don't get to keep the match ball for only scoring two goals.

But he would have had a hat-trick if it hadn't have been given as an own goal.. keep it anyway Benzema .. and runaway fast

 

[Lord Camomile]

But he would have had a hat-trick if it hadn't have been given as an own goal.. keep it anyway Benzema .. and runaway fast

If it hadn't been given as an OG it wouldn't have been a goal. It wasn't going in before it hit the 'keeper, Benzema missed.

 

[Corax]

Lloris MOTM for being dead pretty

 

[juice_terry]

Bloody France you couldn't have scored a 4th

 

[The Boy]

Would have preferred benzema to get a third, but I'll take that.

 

[poului]

You know you've had a bad day in the commentary box when Robbie Savage schools you afterwards.

 

[Maggot]

You don't get to keep the match ball for only scoring two goals.

There are a number of match balls these days. They wouldn't miss one.

 

[JTG]

it was nice to hear him complain about the cost of the stadiums and pointing out it would have paid for the brazillian welfare bill twice over, adding that 'clearly something is not right'. I like JP.

But yeah the whole 2nd goal thing couldnt be more obvious

If he said that then he deserves a little credit

 

[Lord Camomile]

If he said that then he deserves a little credit

He did. I thought, possibly slightly cynically, he was pandering, but I suppose either way he does deserve credit for saying it live on air.

 

[Badgers]

So at the moment France have maximum points and the second highest goal difference in the tournament

 

[JTG]

Tbh any mention of wider issues on the sports feed is incredible
