You state the obvious and want credit for your "knowledge" :mjlol:
I don't remember asking for credit for anything. If you're going to attack me, at least tell the truth. Do better.

Here's you: The welsh played bad the first half but came out dominating the 2nd half taking advantage of US horrible MLS defenders which lead to a penalty. If they played like the first half, they go home early. But dont underestimate them from here on out if they continue their momentum from the second half.


:troll:

"As a Qatari I’m proud of what happened. I don’t know when will the westerners realize that their values aren’t universal. There are other cultures with different values that should be equally respected. Let’s not forget that the West is not the spokesperson for humanity."

ok true BUT no one forced them to host the competition :hubie:

that would be like me hosting the munich beer festival and then complaining about there being too many socialist germans there.

in other words, sign up to host a western competition you are gonna get western behaviour.

maybe next time be led by your morals and do something else.

or maybe be upfront about "acceptable behaviour" as part of your bid so everyone knows in advance.

:what:

Who said it was a “western” competition?

It’s a world competition.

Just like the same Grant Wahl cant go to Russia in 2018 and smoke weed, or protest the brutality of the Putin regime.

Anyway my bad let’s keep this thread on the football.

England looked good, but both goals for Iran and a couple of near misses were down to extremely sloppy defending. MAYBE I can give a pass because the game was won by then, but you can't do that shyt in tournaments.

Iran looked dire.

USA surprised me....that's a genuinely competent side in the first half. Wales seemed shellshocked for 45 mins. Insert Game of Two Halves cliché here... deserved draw in the end I thought.

England should have nothing to fear, but equally I'd fancy my chances if I were American or Welsh.

Sidebar: I'm slowly learning to respect US opinions on football, but my girlfriend is from Philly and seems determined to support anyone but the US. It's properly disconcerting and I wish she'd just be a normal tribal hooligan for a month. Have a horrible feeling she'll remember her passport when the US go a goal up on Friday
