LOL, who will you be winning against in the 2022 finals? And will it be 6-0 or 7-0?

You English soccer lads are almost as bad as latter-day Bammers. Almost.

Russia or Croatia in the semi-final. Good route to the final for whoever wins on Saturday.
Come on England....
Sweden and Croatia shouldn't be disregarded, they've been great in this cup.

Russia, yeah. They have probably exhausted themselves now. Croatia will have an easy-ish win, and save their best players.

Damn that sport is gayer than UFC.

And at least the dudes in UFC uphold decent male beauty standards.

We stopped into the sports bar downtown after the parade, and not a single tv in the place was showing your faggot kickball tournament.

I like that place.

Next game is the 6th so it’s not surprising it wasn’t on. Do they show reruns in your sports bars?

Ugly match. The Colombians are a bunch of thugs. Grossly offensive.

See American standards here, I thought the first half was a good physical game, the ref was letting them play.

Not disregarding anyone, but compared to Brazil, France or Belgium it is definitely the easiest half of the draw.
