That might be Shawarma or Taco al pastor, a derivative of Shawarma, which is a derivative of doner kabob.

yeah, you can find shawarmas everywhere, doner is just one type. That could be a doner, I have no idea. They seem to come in absurdly giant masses like that, I have no idea why if not just for spectacle.

Penalty for Argentina!

Messi scores!

 

[Xcobra]

Messi put that in, masterfully.

I heard that. I’m sitting in a restaurant with the tv set to the game. I can’t see the screen. For some inexplicable reason, the channel is set to Portuguese. The crowd went wild.

 

[sdifox]

Holy shit Alvarez goal!

 

[SKORPI0]

Argentina 2 - Croatia 0
goal by Julián Álvarez

 

[Xcobra]

Alavarez!! Went for no. 2.

 

[sdifox]

Good save by Croatian keeper just now

 

[Xcobra]

I think the Croats are feeling a bit overwhelmed. I like it.

 

[SKORPI0]

Argentina 3 - Croatia 0
2nd goal by Julián Álvarez assist by L.Messi

 

[Xcobra]

Fuck, that was pure Messi magic! 😍

 

[sdifox]

Alvarez scores on Messi pass!

 

[Xcobra]

Amazing assistant!

 

[SKORPI0]

Julián Álvarez done for this game, no hat-trick.

My guess is that France and Morocco will not be close either. France will win comfortably. I will be cheering for Morocco but that's just my hunch that France will win.

More important to rest for final.

If France played like they did against England, I wouldn't be so comfortable against Morocco.

 

[sdifox]

5 min injury time

 

[SKORPI0]

5 more minutes.

 

[Xcobra]

I gotta say, Argentine defense is the most solid I've seen them. They go through, comfortably

 

[SKORPI0]

Diego Maradona must be smiling from above.

Diego Maradona must be smiling from above.

Probably too busy doing hooker and blow

Penalty call was BS, the goalkeeper wasnt really moving.
Luckily for referee, it didnt decide the game, ARG was overall better, a well deserved win, payback for 2018 WC.

I also dont see Morocco getting past France, but I already thought that against SPA/POR, so FRA win is far from given. But it would be a great final, ARG-FRA.

The two Messi assists (in this and the last game) were ultra impressive. I haven't seen anybody else do anything that compares in this tournament. Those were off the chart.
