I feel like Zlatan's pithy one sentence "commentary" will be funny for about 2 days and then get really old...

Brett Goldstein should bail on making movies with J.Lo and do WC commentary as Roy Kent.

Mexico hangs on for a 2-0 win over South Africa in a game that had more red cards than goals.

---

Who had that bet on poloymarket.

---

Probably Brendan Sorsby

Which previous American players in their prime would start over the current starters?

Id take Dempsey or Donovan on RW. Ream right now probably get replaced by a lot of the CBs we've had

Was that worthy of a red card to anyone? I get the one on one earlier but not the 2nd one.

---

Nothing about "worthy" in today's game. If you slap someone in the head in the VAR era, you're gonna get a red-card. Soft or hard, it doesn't matter and the referee doesn't get to choose.

This was a simple, factual red card.

Red card for Mexico. Looked clear to me.

I dunno, he wasn't scoring there. It's a hard yellow for sure. 20 Mudru should have passed into the middle and it was an effortless goal there.

---

If the next touch by an attacker can be a shot, it's going to be interpreted as an OGSO, obvious goal-scoring opportunity. The foul denied it so you have a red card for DOGSO.

DOGSO, VC and DOGSO. They were all good cards. And from watching past WCs I'm pleasantly surprised they got called. They needed to be.

He was 25+ yards out and wide of the edge of the box.

That would be a hell of a next touch.

I think the defender had closed him out with position, to the point where a shot wasn't possible or would have been wide of goal. Seen it 20x in replays and it's a hard yellow IMO

If there is a mandatory hydration break of 3 minutes each half, not stopping the clock and then adding that 3 minutes on at the end of the half is really dumb. Stop the clock, then treat stoppage time as always.

Amazing header and throw

The Korea vs Czechia game was very entertaining.

Taylor twellman not being part of the WC coverage sucks. He was just so great on SVP sportscenter and so much better than anyone on the Fox team.

About ten different goalies.

No question there's better keepers than now. Of the more recent teams I'd add Onyewu, Dempsey, and Donovan.

so tired of seeing all the euros posting stuff like WoRsT wOrLd CuP eVeR and clowning on the venues, etc.

I've been to most of the "top" PL stadiums and as a diehard gooner worship the Emirates, but those stadiums are absolute ****holes compared to our NFL stadiums. They're honestly ****holes compared to Kyle. More history and character...sure, but ****holes.

There's simply no way you could see Mercedes Benz or AT&T, Sofi, etc. and not be in absolute awe as a sports venue. But, they'll keep regurgitating the same nonsense from their keyboards from countries that don't give them the opportunity to earn enough to see them in person.

sorry, rant over.

Canada will be lauded as heroes for not letting him in.

Might be helpful to clarify why, I was curious so I looked.

He's been charged with 8 sexual assault related charges in the last 11 months.

Yeah. I think it actually dates back to 2022 when he was initially being investigated. UK officially charged him I believe when Arsenal released him last summer and he moved to play in Spain.

They're just looking for clicks. Jus typical eurotrash.

Jesse Marsch makes this Canadian team so unlikable.

Dempsey and Donovan are no-brainers.

I'd probably take Wynalda over several guys. Love to see him with good midfield where he doesn't have to do everything.

I'd also want a tough guy. Gooch is good. I'd easily take Balboa over him. If they were unavailable, I'd be happy with Mastroeni. Any of those guys would keep the team playing hard. And they would keep the opponents honest.

Clever. Guess what stadium is this?

Levi's. That's hilarious.

GFU FIFA

Uh, obviously thats World Cup Stadium San Francisco

LMFG boys

I got Weston for 1st goal

Anyone's feed doing a weird pause and then like, screen wipe side to side?
