News: The One No One Can Afford - 2026 World Cup Thread [R]

Looooool

Yeah. Zizou's son was pissed

 

Any ideas guys?

I agree with your assessment of the match. I expected a lot more from Algeria. Their front four are actually pretty good [promising]. Their defense on the other hand...

Just a side note, I dont rate Rodrigo De Paul. If I hated players, he'd be on the list. But that pass for Messi's first goal was quality. I know there pro's so this should be expected at a WC, but that line breaking pass, that never bounces or bobbles off the ground, to this back foot, is just ********ing quality.

 

Shyte article in fairness. Says it will be harder for Messi to score more as he's turning 39 next week. Also says opposition will be tougher. They play Austria and Jordan next. Hardly world beaters...

 

And if they win the group they’ll most likely get an easier 3rd place team (8 of which qualify for knockouts)

 

Actually winner/second of this group plays second/winner of the Spain/Uruguay group.

Tuanzebe & AWB now for Congo against Bruno & Dalot's Portugal. Tuanzebe marking Ronaldo will be interesting

 

Portugal ahead.

 

Lot of passing without creating many chances by Portugal and now Wissa ties it up from a corner kick right on half time...

 

Think no body mentioned, Messi should have sent red. Bad start for Portugal.

 

I don't know why I get excited to watch Portugal play in these tournaments. Every time I set time aside, and they always suck

 

How do they know that already if the top 8 3rd place teams make it through?

 

Superb goal for Croatia

 

Superb header from Kane

 

Not every first place team plays a 3rd place team in R32:

 

Thanks, and weird. I thought it would be seeded, not just predetermined.

 

MLS'er ties it up lol

 

England seem to start every tournament this way.

How does a player get space and time on the ball, 10 yards outside your box, if 11 players are all behind the ball?

 

Worst English defense in a while, midfield is fine but not balanced.

 

2-2 HT, i once was on forum I don't remember name but they always had "Let's all laugh at Engurland " thread .

 

Konsa Gordon what level of awful players have Tuchel picked, no wonder he was fired from last job.

 

Elliot Anderson is worth 100 m plus?

 

England defense looking disorganized. They needed Harry to sort those thing out.

 

Barcelona really bought this Gordon, maybe i should make hiatus permanent.

 

Lack of ability rather than lack of experience.
