FIFA World Cup 2026 Results & Discussion Thread [R]

Man, that would hurt Brazil and Argentina supporters.

Neither teams move the needle for me though.

 

and then after that 3 others including a mod continue to beat the same topic beyond death yet to refuse to bat an eyelid. Make it make sense.

The only trap you fell into was genuinely believing that bragging about a forward’s Apple Watch fitness rings during a 0.00 xG disasterclass was a good idea.

Agreed. However, I must admit that during the corners Argentina received towards the end of the game, I saw Spanish defenders touch Argentine players inside the penalty box. Albeit those touches were less forceful than Molina's push on Nico Williams prior to Ferran Torres' goal, such minor contact would have resulted in guaranteed penalties for Argentina in 2022 or earlier in this tournament. The only reason they weren't awarded this time was the global condemnation and social media scrutiny that occurred after the Egypt match.

Haha priceless

 

I attended one game and it was great. Fun. So great to see people from different parts of the world. I saw so many small examples of random fans helping others with English translations and such. Nice experience. Would have gone to more but the prices were......... sheesh. Especially for the games i really wanted to attend. I wish the 3rd place game was in LA. And i am also glad so many people questioned the final being in that crap stadium in irrelevantstan.

 

There's no room to praise anyone or anything when the air waves (podcast waves?? lol) are flooded with EPL 24/7 365. Even the Fox commentators (Fox does not hold the US right to EPL) would mention it 3-4 times every game. Ohh here comes Steven Steveface from Cape Verde, he had a trial at Tranmere Rovers in 2009 and played a friendly against Fulham of the ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE.

 

Apparently the dwarf had this prepared for when he wins the WC

What do you mean who cares? It's the principle of holding every team accountable to the rules and regulations of the organization [FIFA] they belong to.

If rules will be applied selectively like they have at this and the previous World Cup; what's the point in having rules in the first place? They should be enforced consistently for every team, not only when it's convenient.

 

Yeah, I mean. Imagine if we take this "Who Cares" attitude to situations like Prestianni attacking Vini? "Who cares what he said? The game is already over"

Like I said, suspending them from meaningless games is actually not a punishment, so there should be something else. But absolutely, the rule should be enforced.

It's not a matter of "Who cares about the losers?" That's outrageous, actually. It's about not letting football players act like animals.

 

This was something else, although they went out early that year. I hope to see Argentina play like this again, once the idiots leave the team.

 

En octubre de 2011, Luis de la Fuente fue despedido del Deportivo Alavés después de nueve jornadas. Las llamadas dejaron de llegar. Pasó dieciocho meses sin trabajo.

Lol @ the player who went down randomly.

The most shameless video of the World Cup Final

Enzo Fernandes kicks Cubarsi, an Argentina player fakes an injury and falls down, Enzo gets a red, Messi goes upto the ref pointing to Arg player down saying he’s injured review the foul 😭 pic.twitter.com/VLo00Oc32F

These guys have no shame. Are they SO invested in the game that they forget there are cameras everywhere? Are they so eager to cheat?
This is beyond pathetic.

 

Interesting analysis on the Argentine's behavior

Arjantin Milli Takımı, eskiden böyle çirkef ve kaba bir imaj taşımıyordu; bu dönüşüm, Stanford Hapishane Deneyi’nde olduğu gibi, küçük kötülüklere göz yumuldukça adım adım gerçekleşti. Turnuvanın başında masum görünen fauller, itişmeler ve hakemlere baskı gibi davranışlar, zaman… pic.twitter.com/yPv036BT40
