I think Spain vs Uruguay, England vs Croatia, Portugal vs Colombia, and France vs Norway all look pretty good. Also Japan vs Netherlands and Brazil vs Morocco because Japan and Morocco did some giant killing in 2022. There's definitely going to be upsets and weird results too.

Spain will steamroll their group.
Croatia is not the same since Modric retired and England played one of the best qualifications ever.
Portugal vs Colombia might be interesting, depending on how Portugal will utilize CR7 or not and if they do in which shape he will be.
France vs Norway will be the 3rd match in that group and only decide who will be 1st or 2nd.

None of these four match up is an established rivalry.

Japan might be a dark horse (hopefully).

Brazil vs Morocco might be interesting tho.

Given the sheer number of group matches this is an underwhelming outcome of "probably hot matches".
 
if just the FUCKING DRAWS was this bad, imagine the opening and ending. Oh wait, THEY FUCKING ADDED A HALF TIME SHOW, STOP THIS SHIT
Let's not forget the new way they introduce the players, as seen in the Club World Cup. One by one, with a loud announcer introducing them, with that awkward half-circle formation... and add the obligatory anthems too.

Oh, and the risk of paralyzing matches due to bad weather.
 
Oh just you boys wait if this is driving you nuts. You're going to get the full American sports experience at the WC. Player introductions, halftime shows, t shirts being shot into the stands with air cannons, and cam cuts to celebrities every 5 minutes who are only going to show up for a photo op who only know who that Rolando guy is and that Messi fella if they're REALLY into SOCCER. Do you not you want to see Taylor Swift 12 times a half? Just count your blessings that the actual game of football can't be controlled, lest you'd get commercial breaks left and right on top of everything else.

edit: Martin Tyler needs to hang it up. The man has no vigor left. He's OLD. He couldn't muster up a whimper if Joe Gomez finally scored a goal.

Jesus fucking christ, I am not gonna lie: I didn't believe we were going to escape at all from relegation. We needed to win with 2 goals or more then get other two teams to lose or tie. Shit was so bad that that at one point it was decided in the amount of goals scored. For 2 hours were were at the ever changing status of relegated or not, For the first two goals of the 3x1 win today I didn't score, the first time I screamed in happiness was when Botafogo scored 3x1, but since Internacional fans must SUFFER, not only the third goal was null, the refs gave a penalty to Fortaleza and they equalized to 2x2.

Then sometime later Botafogo scored the third again, then Vitoria fucking scored against São Paulo. Jesus fucking hell, I didn't want to even get a glimpse of happiness just for the other matches to go "haha fuck you".
But then Carbonero started running as the most hungriest nigger in churrascoland to score the third goal. Holy shit IT IS HAPPENING GOD DAMN YOU.

However I am an Internacional supporter, I can't taste happiness. Bragantino just scored against us in one hell of a outside the box kick that just would kill us.

Then Botafogo scored the fourth goal, I screamed like a madman alongside my cousin. The final 10 minutes was me looking at other games ball possession and just wishing for it to end.

And when it ended, I just felt the most relief I ever felt in my sports life. After almost 9 years, this year we won a regional tournment, I was just amused since I grew up winning this tournment all the time. But this was different. It was just complete and utter serene grace.

I think this will eventually become a bigger problem, we should be relegated and rebuild everything from ground up, sell some players, get new ones, get a real coach again. But right now this is the problem for us in the future.

Also VAI TOMAR NO CU GRÊMIO SUE BANDO DE SECADOR MALDITO, GANHOU DE QUATRO A ZERO DO SPORT E FICOU SECANDO O TEU PAI, MAIOR DO SUL, SPORT CLUB INTERNACIONAL.


OBRIGADO ABELÃO, ESTÁTUA PRA TI PRA ONTEM.

There’s only one truly great team on Merseyside.

Tranmere Rovers.
 
Don't look now, but Barcelona erased a 5 point gap and now have a 4 point lead over Real Madrid in La Liga. They still have El Classico to play in Barcelona as well so this might be a disaster for Xabi Alonso. Carlo Ancelloti's black magic of keeping Vini happy might have finally worn off. Guess its a race between Real Madrid and Liverpool to sell their whiny superstar to Saudi Arabia first

I reckon Crynicius is waiting to see if Alonso is still in a job come the end of the season. Wonder who Florentino will prioritize in what's historically Player FC. Tbf they might both go, especially since Mbappe and Vini just can't seem to co-exist on the pitch together and Mbappe will be going nowhere in a hurry, so. Florentino is probably looking to build the team around him at this point and I'm not sure Vini factors into that with the way things have been going for a season and a half now.
 
The implosions of Real Vardrid and Lolverpool have been a delight to watch, but especially the latter.
The scousers treat More Salad as a legit deity, so if the board decides to yeet him away, expect complete chaos.

It hasn't started and I already hate that Seattle will push an obligatory celebration of faggotry in one of their matches.

Which one? Egypt x Iran. :story:

Some parts of this country have just devolved into a self-parody at this point. How on-brand for a heretical city like fucking Seattle. So ridiculous lol. Maybe they can deem some arbitrary tie the Heroin Awareness match too.

Simply designed to ram stupid western moral decline down the throats of countries and fans who want nothing to do with it.

Did the Qatar World Cup games feature any ‘glorious Muslim lifestyle and religion uniting the world’ hyper-advertising at specific games, forcing players to wear crescent moon armbands, and having a half-time show consist of Immams leading prayers?

There used to be disdain for forcing any kind of politics into sport.

Why do the yanks have the World Cup again anyway? It was enough of a shit show the last time, with games being played at midday in Florida, leaving players needing IV fluids due to heat exhaustion afterwards (Tommy Coyne for Ireland, for one). There’s already too many dodgy American investors in the English league, none of whom have a fucking clue about the game. They really seem to be forcing football and America together, and of course certain tracts of America can’t help themselves but to demand everyone involved play along with their weird political fetish.

What’s next, a furry-themed game? That retard Nia Okami (I am a wolf guy) leading game announcements? People are there to watch the football, not get force-fed tranny propaganda.
 
Eh, the next time England hosts the World Cup there probably will be crescent moon armbands and imam's leading half time prayers if it's about 40 years from now. ;)

Right now we have no striker bc they are all injured (even the shitty ones) or aren't registered for the Champions League while we have the 3rd worst defence in CL (only that team from Kazahkstan and freaking Ajax are worse; wtf happened to Ajax???) and the worst defence in Bundesliga.

I think I skip the quadrillion:0 slaughter against Barcelona tonight and go to bed early.
