Football (Soccer)

Beautiful game. Both teams did very well. I was a bit concerned during the 1st half, I have to say.

Definitely the best of the best. Just at the moment when an Argentinian win was going to happen, France came back, not once but twice. For a legend like Messi, this is how it should end. Congratulations Argentina.

A GG would’ve gotten us past Belgium in 2014 so I’ll admit my bias @Seul 

I do understand how it and silver goals played out and why they moved from them but it just seems like a more rational way to fairly determine the better football team.

I will rotate on whether I will deign to pay FIFA to attend a 2026 match from now until then.

@mclaincausey If you dislike FIFA as much as I do, then you need to listen to:

What a game last night, Rashford is unstoppable at the moment! Very nicely poised for the second leg back at OT! In ETH we trust, absolutely love the bloke!

[AdamC]

Repeat of above post minus Rashford! @louisbosco you managing to catch many of the games over there? Martinez and Casemiro are beasts

[Steve]

@AdamC Yeah, they might even be good enough to get in the Arsenal team!

[AdamC]

@Steve bit early to start that mate, Arsenal have a crumble in them yet

[louisbosco]

@AdamC yeah I’ve been watching all of the games so far. Just watched the CL win against Barca this morning! Fred’s also an underrated player at the moment. Playing like prime rivaldo

[louisbosco]

The quadruple is on starting this Sunday!

[AdamC]

@louisbosco hahahaha agreed he's playing well, but prime Rivaldo is a strong statement

We need a trophy this season, hopefully first one Sunday

[louisbosco]

@AdamC hahaha maybe Fred doesn’t have the technical skills but his work rate is up there. Also hope dubravka tears them from the inside this weekend

[AdamC]

@louisbosco yeah his work rate is ridiculous!

[louisbosco]

@AdamC can't wait for this Sunday honestly! it's gonna be massive! casemerio is the best buy this season!

UTB!!

You might have to explain this to our American friends @IH-GARY - in fact, you might have to explain it to our Premiership-supporting English friends too!!

[IH-GARY]

@Nocturama I’d hope all these Man Utd posters know we’ve got Super Micheal Carrick!

@AdamC 1/4 in the bag..

efficient, ruthless and classy - love it
