Lightning stops play.

And here I was just about to say how cool it was (if maybe foolish) that they were playing on through a thunderstorm.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Michael Oliver need a thunder buddy?

 

[Dire Wolf]

Have to suspend play here. Lightning is the only thing that stops an NFL game.

Lightning stops play.

Any idea off the dome how close the lightning has to be to cause a delay?

 

[Alan]

Also, shout outs to Peter Schmeichel who has been fucking excellent in the studio over here.

Just seen a shot of hailstones as big as golf balls (at least).
Then again i assume we are all getting the same pictures, yours minus the greek blah blah of course.

Game better now overrun too much, got Canada v Chile soon

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

Don't think i've ever seen a game suspended by rain before.
Definately by snow, and i think once by fog, but never by rain.
Shame this had turned into a cracking game.

 

[Alan]

Delay is from the lightning, not the rain tbf.

 

[jd1981]

Germany have looked very vulnerable at the back at times

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

Rudiger is a beast but the rest of the back line?

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Was there just a mention of 'Alex' Del Piero?!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

United make so many bad signings that Højlund goes under the radar. I think he's really poor.

 

[Jack Regan]

Likely to rule this out?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Yeah, it's offside

 

[Sniffer]

Pratwell

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

Oh yes!!!, oh hang on,oh ffs!!!!, same minute of 2nd half as dissallowed German goal in 1st half.
Var levelling up?

 

[Wolftone]

VAR

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

That's never a penalty, no change in the flight of the ball whatsoever.
