I said "major" competition, not "Major League Soccer" competition! However, great find. That was pretty pathetic, since they scored 3 goals during the game could not convert a single penalty. At least Spain can claim they sucked at shooting the entire game. 77% of the possession, 13 shots overall, ONE shot on target.
"Orchestrated" seems a bit generous...he took a corner and Portugal's defender head flicked it on (instead of clear) to the Swiss fullback standing alone at the back post.
It was too high for the defender to redirect it with any intent. It basically skimmed off of his head. Regardless, Shaqiri was involved in all of Switzerland’s goals at the World Cup.
All jokes aside it really was reported as such. Australia in second. Mexico third LEAST of all teams. I believe for the US it was 122km per game, all players combined unless I misunderstood the stat. Regardless, we topped the list.
When in doubt, root for the underdog. Go Croatia. Not that I had any doubts about who I was rooting for…
Neymar showing why he's rated. He took the contact, made a touch around the keeper, and had the presence of mind to roof it over the sliding defender. Probably a career defining play. I could see Brazil adding a couple more than Croatia coming back.
