FIFA World Cup: Qatar 2022 • Page 27

Bump!

 

oh wow

 

My goodness Richarlison

 

Did the entire Brazil team bleach their hair together?

 

Such a shame we weren't in the position to keep him until after the World Cup but hey ho.

 

Richy!

 

[Insert joke about underpaid groundskeepers here]
But yes, I've also thought there must be a grass quality issue because there's been a lot of slip and falls.

 

Some fucking goal that

 

I’m watching on mute cause I’m busy, but I understand Martin Keown has been genuinely unbearable on commentary?

 

Yeah, very poor from him, especially towards Neymar. He had to get a dig in against him just after he was substituted to go with various other times throughout the game.

 

Swelling on that!

 

It’s hard to judge after just one game due to varying opposition levels, but I think Brazil, France, Spain and England all look good. Meanwhile, it seems Germany, Argentina and Belgium all have issues to iron out.

 

This is the only time I'll ever say this.....I hope Kane can't play tomorrow.

 

(As a sports forum mod, I feel like I should say this before I get caught up tomorrow, too):

In case the game thread atmosphere between US/England gets feisty… like 97% of us regular soccer thread users have a team facing the other tomorrow/today (whenever you see this). Talk trash/shit all you want, but don’t be malicious towards other users; we’re all usually friends otherwise even when our club rivalries happen so this is the same.

 

As seven (and more) International captains should have been ballsy enough to say:

 

No idea if it’s cause I haven’t watched a full match and I’m not that invested in this tournament but reffing seems mostly decent.

The colours on this are still really funny to me, it was a compromise set of colours to avoid controversy and it was still banned. It’s the pan-African and pansexual flag colours.

 

100% a red

 

Iran score in the final minute, up 1-0 - upsets keep happening!

 

Fuck, 2-0!!

 

So, we need to beat the US tonight, because Wales are likely going to be really on it against us in the final group game...

 

The memes are golden right now.

 

No jammy Bale "magic" from a penalty or free-kick in this game? Just the way I like it. Besides, Iran were the better team...

 

Bye Wales
