I think accidental hand ball inside the box should be a penalty but not a dot shot. Maybe a 2 on 2. Take a dotty but the defense is allowed a keeper and a defender on the line. It is possible I am losing my mind.

Argentina vs Cape Verde? Are you kidding me? Argentina was meh

Columbia Portugal so far...Portugal Croatia also

I don’t think it was the most skillful or talented match by any means but that had everything you want in a match in terms of entertainment:
  • An island nation of 500K in their first World Cup against the defending champs
  • Some great goals. Messi’s first touch was insane. The golazo by Cabral to equalize 2-2 is candidate for goal of the tournament
  • The massive underdog kept fighting back
  • Cape Verde didn’t just sit back 11 men in the box like some significantly larger nations (cough Australia cough) have done against superior talent

Maybe not from a pure soccer perspective but as a casual fan? It was like if some random G5 had a CFP game against Ohio State and took them to overtime. Throw in Ohio State also having the most popular athlete in the world on their team for good measure. And the playoffs only happen once every four years so they mean even more. This is why we watch.

(also when the CV guy who scored the ridiculous shot went and ran up into the stands to hug his girlfriend...)

These Moroccan pussies are hilarious. Diving everywhere as they're getting caved by an inferior team. Haikimi is a POS. If it Canada somehow gets up 2 late, Laryea should just break his ankle and end his season. Eat the red card and laugh at his ass while he roles around on the ground.

Is it any wonder why these people just role over and die by the ten's of thousands any time we invade them? Charmin triple ply soft man.

Canada is the far inferior team and Morroco is playing like a U16 Girl's team. Relentless tears. Send these fuckers back to Tatooine.

Oh, and Happy 4th of July gents! Hope y'all are enjoying the holiday.

Beaten by a better squad. No shame in that! We were playing on borrowed time.

Now somebody end Hakimi's tournament on the way out.

Canada getting worked

Once Morocco pulled their heads out of their ass after getting caved in the first half, the match went as you'd expect. A quality goal by Morocco and a pair of follow ups after Canada had to abandon their structure and put players forward to press for the tie.

I think a team just a step up from Canada (a USA, Columbia, Switzerland level team) would have beat that #6 ranked Moroccan team today. They were not impressive for about 70 minutes of that game.

Canada got smacked by a team’s C- game 😂

How a 30th ranked Canada squad was better than that Morrocan side for 60-70 minutes is beyond me. They're going to have to play much better to avoid being utterly embarrassed by France.

That said, look at the battle Cape Verde put up the other day. Who friggen knows!
