World Cup 2026 starting today

[Hem]

Watched Mexico/ Ecuador last night.
Good to see Mexico move forward after 40 years.
Substantial amount of thuggery on both sides, seemed to me. Flipside im getting a little over the flopping drama.
You want to play rough, then toughen up.
Enjoying it all nonetheless. Hoping for Mexico/ England.

In spite of British passport, they wouldn’t have a chance in the bean matchup

At the USA game tonight. Let’s go USA.

Sweet! I bet the place is rocking.

Great start for the US, constant pressure (should have one or two more). Put one more in the net after the half and it’s over- BH is not built for a comeback.

Bullshit red card on US.

 

[Treeshark]

Major grit post-red, that set piece goal was one of the best goals for the US in decades. I can’t remember a bigger one since Donovan vs Algeria.

Only gets harder from here. One more win and this will have been a great showing for the US.

 

[Treeshark]

Bullshit red card on US.

Slow-motion looked bad, but in real time it’s hard to imagine it was anything intentional (supported by the ref not even issuing a yellow until the review).

Bullshit red card on US.

Pretty stiff penalty when Balogun wasn't even looking down.

Lukaku saves Belgium in a big way. Scorers gonna score.

Now we get them on 7/6 in Seattle hoping to avoid a similar result to the friendly played in March where Belgium roared back in the second half with three goals in 15 minutes to take the 5-2 win.

I can now say I watched my first ever 20-minutes of a soccer game.
Looked like a cool atmosphere.
Did the guy on the USA really get kicked out for a game and a half for stepping on another guy's foot?
The number of catastrophic injuries I witnessed (for them to later hop right up and run full speed down the field) was super impressive.

I watched the US game on telemundo, my only free access. I recognized three words after two years of Spanish in high school - Richard, Feldman and Goaaaaaaaaaaaal!

Just gonna say it. VAR is out of control. They are supposed to check clear errors. Its become they are reffing and on the fields they are just refs being co trolled and deferring. Croatia got shafted twice and now goes home

They are also inconsistent and don't touch the bug names. Red card on USA, proba ly right call, but Messi does almost same fould and nothing.

Tonight VAR calls pk for something that happens on every corner kick. Then Ronaldo CLEARLY stops in the pk run up which should be a retake. But nothing. That was black and white
