From all the games I have watched this World Cup France with their midfield will be really tough to beat,Spain hasn't lost a match it seems like forever so those 2 seem to be the teams slightly more complete than the others,looks like a France -Spain semi-final,and sorry England .Norway- Argentina in the other, I think these are the 4 best of the teams left,but what the heck does a Canadian know about soccer ! What they need to do is start handing out yellow cards with the constant flopping around on the ground when they get brushed by an opponent ,how and why do the billions of fans put up with that crap,and a bigger question is what kind of sport is it really with all the diving and belly flopping these so called Pro's do,I would be so embarrassed from anyone on my team that acted in such away what are these men or school boy's,what professional sport would put up with such blatant diving unless its corrupt to the core,love the sport if they could get rid of the crap I just mentioned but they won't until the fans demand it,I could never cheer for someone who constantly fakes being hurt game in and game out when re-plays show their hardly even touched,happens 30 plus times a game just pathetic,do the players all go to acting school in the off season

You speak For the sake of speaking. You said that England has already faced 2 strong rivals .Congo and Mexico? And you said Argentina won't do it until the semifinals. Hahaha Colombia is a strong rival I repeat the same thing to you in case you don't know about soccer. Colombia is stronger than the rivals that England faced and stronger than Norway of course greetings
I watched the Colombia game. Maybe now you see the point I was making . A bit stronger opponent and... out. It's important how many chances end up in the net, not how impressive it looks. Colombia scores 1 goal per game, wasting too many opportunities, just like in this game, you can see it in the highlights and in the stats. Can't imagine Norway missing so much. The analysis was correct except the prediction that they will win lmao.

P.S. Please, don't tell me Switzerland is super strong and will be a real test for Argentina. And Colombia wouldn't. Maybe only because they somehow concede 2g a game from weaker sides lol.

And just in case, it's a given that by 1/8 there are no 'weak' teams already. Everybody understands that. A weak team at best may advance from the group and maybe through the 1st play-off round, but they can't get lucky until this stage. But there are still 'weaker' teams.

Vi el partido de Colombia. Quizás ahora entiendas a qué me refería. Un rival un poco más fuerte y... fuera. Lo importante es cuántas ocasiones terminan en gol, no lo impresionante que parezca. Colombia marca un gol por partido, desperdiciando demasiadas oportunidades, como en este partido, se puede ver en los resúmenes y en las estadísticas. No me imagino a Noruega fallando tanto. El análisis fue correcto, excepto por la predicción de que ganarían, jajaja.

PD: Por favor, no me digas que Suiza es súper fuerte y que será una verdadera prueba para Argentina. Y Colombia no lo sería. Quizás solo porque de alguna manera encajan 2 goles por partido de equipos más débiles, jajaja.

Y por si acaso, es obvio que a octavos de final ya no hay equipos débiles. Todo el mundo lo entiende. Un equipo débil, en el mejor de los casos, podría pasar de la fase de grupos y tal vez superar la primera ronda de los playoffs, pero no puede tener suerte hasta esta fase. Aun así, todavía existen equipos más débiles.
Nobody talks about super teams here, at least not me. I repeat what I said Colombia is better than Mexico and than Norway. And it was better in today's match against Switzerland but they missed their chances of scoring. Anyway, I'm sad for Colombia but happy because I would rather play against Switzerland:)

What a game that was yesterday! The stadium was crazy in those 12 minutes Argentina was scoring. I guess we can't write Messi off just yet.

I hope England wins on Saturday so we can see England vs Argentina next Wednesday. That would be crazy. Of the games we have seen so far England and Argentina have had the loudest fans (and they drink the most lol).

If Cristiano is out, I hope either Norway or France wins. I can't stand Messi.

For me Norway and Spain. I can't stand Mbappé. What a brilliant, incredibly arrogant arse of a football player.
I guess the same goes for Messi.
I never liked Christiano Ronaldo's style of play but I respect him deeply for all the social aid he's doing. Especially for kids

They were playing like shit, except Nunu Mendes. Most expensive halfbacks in the world and completely useless. Ronaldo did alright tho.

In other news, the goat Novak Djokovich is in another Wimbledon semifinal. After a tough game that lasted 5 hours 15 m. Not bad for the 39-year-old boy: ()

Egypt want officials kicked out of World Cup

"Perhaps they wanted to keep the world champion in the competition. Perhaps they wanted Messi to stay in the running," he said.

Zico said: "The referee was really unfair. The injustice was clear. There's been an unfairness right from the start of the match.

"It is clear that this tournament has been fixed."

It's now getting easier to count the games where there isn't a plausible accusation of fixing/unfair treatment than the ones that don't have such problems. Even if the claims were groundless (and I don't think they are), it's awful to see what VAR is doing to the game - we saw this also the other night with England having a sending off (unintentional but not unreasonable) and a penalty given against them (very soft, surely seen by the referee, and not a 'clear and obvious error'). Somehow we managed to win, but it could have easily been enough to push the result the other way if Mexico finished better. If this world cup finally opens up fans eyes to what this organisation is doing to the sport, then it would even be worth tolerating an Argentina victory.

The chances of a repeat of the last World Cup final are increasing, although the French have a much more difficult task.

Egipto exige la expulsión de los funcionarios del Mundial.



Ahora es más fácil contar los partidos en los que no hay una acusación plausible de amaño o trato injusto que los que no presentan tales problemas. Incluso si las acusaciones fueran infundadas (y no creo que lo sean), es terrible ver lo que el VAR le está haciendo al juego. Lo vimos también la otra noche con la expulsión de Inglaterra (involuntaria, pero no irrazonable) y un penalti en su contra (muy dudoso, seguramente visto por el árbitro, y no un "error claro y manifiesto"). De alguna manera logramos ganar, pero fácilmente podría haber sido suficiente para inclinar el resultado hacia otro lado si México hubiera tenido un mejor desempeño. Si este Mundial finalmente abre los ojos de los aficionados a lo que esta organización le está haciendo al deporte, entonces incluso valdría la pena tolerar una victoria de Argentina.
The only world cup the English have was stolen. salutes

Well, the American continent is only represented by one national team. And that team is literally in the southernmost part of the continent.
And Africa is now represented only by Northwest Africa. And Asia is represented by no one.
And there are 6 European teams there.
They used to joke that the World Cup was Europe plus Argentina and Brazil. Almost.

They flop on plays to make it look like charging in the NBA , and Q Backs + kickers exaggerate contact to get ' roughing' calls . Nothing new about trying to influence the officials .

No they don't,you don't see NBA player's rolling around on the floor when someone brushes past them or they jump up for rebounds .not even close to what Soccer player's do,and don't call them football player's it is an insult to real men who don't roll around crying like babies,trying to compare a quarterback getting pummeled 50 times a game to a whining soccer player is insulting to real men everywhere,they want respect they need to stop acting like whinny school boys
