[The Wall Is Undefeated!]

You state the obvious and want credit for your "knowledge"

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.

Here's you:

We need to start a dialogue about Chelsea players being disgrace to their nations

Sterling scored
Pulisic assist
Mount bossed the midfield
Ampadu was a warrior
Kuloubally done well

and the fed doesn't care that someone like this is in charge

"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

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.

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.

Only Day 2 of the World Cup and thread already wildin.

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

 

[TheAlbionist]

Oh and the Netherlands look tame. Not their year. Again. Prove me wrong.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

USA really should have closed that out.. now we need to beat Iran and maybe hope for a tie vs. The brits idk

I think dude was just trolling, its actual 7-color rainbow on his shirt and not the lgbt flag...prolly why he was let go

 

[Black Magisterialness]

Rest up my American brevs because there's a young black-english storm of excellence headed your way on Friday.

I won't even be mad. I'm going to a watch party with a bunch of American Outlaws...my ass is wearing BLACK.
