Not that big on the 'egg' part, but I'd support renaming it Handpigskin

gutterslob · 2014-06-14 18:06:30

Way too tame, this modern game. There's no sense of theater. I say bring back Rivaldo!!

Those are good ... where did you find them? Are there more?

gutterslob · 2014-06-14 18:19:52

^^
The beauty of Rivaldo's dive was the fact that he did it with the FIFA fair-play logo behind him.
Oh, and I first posted that handegg pic years ago. You chaps are slow.

As for the gif, just random Google images searches. That one was from a "rivaldo dive gif" query.

This was from a time when bookies were desperate and employed snipers;

I missed that, I would not have forgotten it had I seen it.

I notice how the ball hit's him in the hip/elbow area but he covers his face. DUH! My wife has been telling me for years that to play football (not handegg - my Scottish granny would have LOVED that one) the players need to take acting classes.

Hahahahaha - I do love your sense of humour, but it does explain why he fell, I see no other reason.

Footballer 0 - Sniper - 1

Funnily, no word similar to: nogomet (in Croatian). Means: 'played with foot' (no 'ball' part).

On the same note: 'rukomet' (handball), meaning 'played with hand'.

Handegg is here called the 'American football'. And of course we have a word 'ragbi' (direct pronunciation in Croatian) for 'rugby' i.e. 'rugby football'.

They are both considered rugby, but 'American football' is considered as 'rugby for Americans'. (Nothing bad meant by this.) We have, or have had, a few rugby clubs, but never had 'American football' club.

^ Well, as an American, with a family that is pretty obsessive about American Football, take it from me,you're not missing much

Sector11 · 2014-06-15 00:00:36

Canadian handegg is better anyway. Love that term!

Hey ... I missed this ...

So 'he who runs from hungry lion' can be called nogomet ]:D

Great game in Manaus - just a pity about the result! The young England forwards were brilliant, but that old Italian fox Pirlo just keeps on producing the goods. Damn him!

And the real Handegg is a lovely place

Agreed damo, not disappointed with the way they played.
What was Shrek(Rooney) doing on the pitch though, looked like an old man.
Top players England:
1. Sterling
2. Johnson
3. Cahill

Needs to shake a leg:
1. Rooney
2. Wilshire

Costa Rica (they were great!) to win the Group though

Fixed it for you

So now's not a good time to say my wife's grandfather came from Italy and she's happy. It was a good match though.

Agree with Joe90, Costa Rica played well and deserved to win.

@ head_on_a_Stick -

EDIT_ Oh My - there is a place called handegg .. beautiful. Nice find damo!
