Huh? Not by me: https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/2019-wwc-refereeing.2079900/ https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/var-what-happens-when.2104601/
Guys, I am in denial. I can't believe that, after the next two matches, this World Cup will end. How do you think you are going to cope with THIS?
You don't understand, guys, you're trying to divert... The World Cup is going to end! And we're not going to get another for 4 freaking years!!!
It is like it is. If we had World Cups let's say every two years it would lose its prestige. Who wants to see that? I like the the fact that all results will remain relevant for at least four years and serve us as a benchmark until WC 2023 kicks off.

I am not claiming I want more than one WWC every four years and I agree that it would make it less "special". I am just suffering for that.
Blisset, how are you managing your withdrawal? I can't get rid of my constant craving for more quality matches. And, the drama! Oh, I miss it so. The anticipation beginning the year before is delicious, too. Thanks to all teams for a fantastic World Cup!
