Earning his stripes: Timothy Weah at Juventus

(Un?)fortunately, this game will be on BeinSports

 

Every time Weah is in the lineup I get excited thinking about him contributing to the national team and then worried he'll get hurt before the next international window.

 

I have a bunch of stupid calls today, but I'll try to keep 1/2 an eye.

 

Every so often you make a good call.

 

Name one!

Btw Lille up 2-0 on two header - the Canuk and Ben Andre. I did not see either as my stupid calls involved screen shares...

HT 2-0 to the dogs.

They're talking about Arsene Wenger and a bunch of other big shots who have come with the idea of a World Cup every two years, and have proposed it to Infantino who seems to like the idea (of course).

So now there is a small revolt in the world of football on the theme.

Otherwise, Weah on the right, Gomes on the left, and so far Lille trying to go through the middle.

PS: Knowing those people bet they want to qualify countries to the World Cup based on GDP and always play the final in Dubai, something horrible like that.

 

Weah creates that goal!

Spectacular effort by Tim.

The Strasbourg players were demanding VAR. Ref shrugged, there was no reason for it.

 

That's a lot of blood. Tim injured in a head collision.

 

His blood ?

 

Yep. But it was just a cut, he's ok now.

 

Yes. Got patched up and came back on though.

 

Just a reminder that Tim has his very own PBP thread:

Weah down.

Penalty!

 

Run DMBride

 

The Strasbourg keeper got kicked in the head in the Lille area while standing up. It could easily have been a penalty.

 

Yep. But after 7 minutes of 5 minutes ET, it'd have been too much.

 

The penalty:

Big day for Tim Weah… his best since last season. Assist earlier.. and he draws a penalty here pic.twitter.com/XcqDvAnTnC

Very good game for Tim. He keeps this up, his value is going to shoot up like fireworks.

 

No one makes me bleed my own blood!

 

I'm always worried about Weah injury wise but he had actually been paying well before this big day too, imo.

 

A very strong game
