Just realized they’ve split the bracket so that you can play another member of your group before the Final. Don’t love that at all.
lloyd is such an old man yelling at the cloud meme. It's still the fucking World Cup. Although the US squad expected to win the group you should still celebrate the small victories like getting to the knockout stages. This is a difficult sport where nothing is ever guaranteed.
1. I still cannot believe this is the same Vlatko as the NWSL coach Vlatko. Did they take his brain when he signed his contract or something? 2. it’s not too late to fire him and name Tobin Heath head coach 3. Carli Lloyd should not be part of the broadcast crew and nothing she says about this team is in good faith. I’ve had nightmares that were less painful than her and Lalas talking about this team
God forbid the 18-21 year olds playing in their first World Cup enjoy the moment in any way. Not their fault the team is in this position
Hearing her talk about how it’s a fine line between confidence and arrogance and you can be confident but you don’t want to be arrogant was wild
After the group stage, it's hard to see anyone but the Dutch winning it. But with how chaotic the group stage has been, it could legit go anywhere.
I think Japan has looked the most consistently solid but I also think it’s pretty clear anything can happen this time around
went to the irish team's homecoming earlier today. atmosphere was great. v cool seeing how many kids were there and how excited they got at the sight of their new heroes
