takes a revenge tackle and gets sent off, England loses 1-0 in extra time

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

England U21s play some outstanding football. Give Lee Carsley the top job after the Euros.

2 teams at the same time can be one of the best of all time. It’s not a direct comparison but look at Barca and Madrid during the 2010’s for example. They were a very influential team in football history, just like Sacchi’s Milan.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

They were probably premium tickets. I know DC was around $6k for seats basically on the field with accommodations

Just learned there’s an Arsenal equivalent of MikeLUHG

I loved watching Bellingham play in Dortmund, is very happy he's doing so great in Madrid already, but wtf is this crazy driding, how has he already got more hype than Vini got in that entire CL winning season? Even Haaland last season didn't get this much licking this early in season, and if he did that's because he scored another hattrick in consecutive game

And for god's sake what's these ex-player's obsession of comparing everyone with Messi and Ronaldo,

Does sevilla have 3 big stadiums?

Estadio Benito Villamarín for betis

pizjuan for sevilla fc

and the one they play in today?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

? I'm not saying that it's only Italian players who bet on football, I was just wondering if he was caught by being flagged by the regular system, or if the betting houses were tipped off by the same guy who's allegedly ratted out the other three.

But what has milan to do here? He played in milan 3 years ago and he is invastigated for betting on west ham games?

The bizarre Stories of Argentinian Football: Day 8

A- Despite it not being allowed in Argentina, Red Bull acquired 80% of a Federal A (3rd division) team this year.

B- In 2016, Liniers (Primera D – 5th division) had to straighten their field, as the boundary lines didn’t form 90° angles; in other words, the field wasn’t a rectangle. The pitch stayed that way 30 years before this modification.

C- Gimnasia de Mendoza played in 9 different seasons in the 1st division, all of them between 1970 (first year) and 1984 (last). They have never been relegated from that division.

D- In 2021, Deportivo Español (Primera C – 4th tier) started to pay their players’ bonuses with cryptocurrency.

Bonus: Israel is being worldwide news, sadly. On a less serious note, Chiqui Tapia is currently part of the 2030 WC fiasco, as he's part of the Conmebol board that acepted the atrocious logistics it will have. Well, both Israel and Tapia can be combined into today's bonus. Previous to the 2018 WC, Argentina was going to play a friendly vs Israel in Jerusalen; however, it got cancelled. Tapia apologized later, and said that he cancelled it as a "contribution to World peace".

If you didn't read my last post - the bonus isn't part of the quiz, it's just another (true) story that I felt like adding. Every quiz from now on will have one.

Just had a random thought - who took Russia’s continental qualification spots?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

As in UEFA club tournaments? I believe Scotland was one of them, as Rangers' European run pushed them up to two CL spots which they'd never had before.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

that's insane. 3 beautiful huge stadiums

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Oh you misunderstand, he’ll be a god to me if he does it, I’m fully on board the Bellingham hype train

Pep wears Lee Carsley pyjamas

A bald manager I can get behind

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Pep wishes he had a player as good as Philogene.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The benefit is it's fun. I agree football should separate from it and ban advertising etc but let's not act like it can't be fun to have a casual bet.

5 cracking goals in England u21s vs Serbia u21s. Tune in on YouTube if you're not doing anything else.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Hakimi and Mané are gonna participate in the AFCON draw. Has UEFA ever had active players do the draw? I feel like it's weird. Like a conflict of interest lol. Anyways, Akon is present as well. English link for those interested

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

England are 6-1 up and Elliott's goal was the best of the lot

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, just caught it on the Liverpool sub - lovely finish.

The British government is trying to force the FA to light up Wembley blue and white. Don't they realise that Gaza is a legend of English football? Don't they remember Euro 96?

what was in that israel thread that every comment got deleted?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Take a guess

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Sure Cyprus were never world beaters but I've never seen them so bad. They were one of those teams who could shithouse their way to some goal or points, ruin betting handicaps, showing their teeth even when losing... Now they are consistently conceding a ton.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Oof that's bad. Your whole midfield died, and only one fit attacker. In hindsight Fati should have been kept around because this would be his chance

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

No I mean AydeeLAHK.

Tweets exactly like Mike, just no HTH signatures

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Bellingham and Colwill are still eligible also

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

People are really mad because goal was disallowed for wrong reason. Like it is a dumb mistake, but it doesn't really matter as it would be disallowed anyways. Better than letting goal stand.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Wake up to the beautiful sunlight. Today's the national day of my country.

Enjoy a delicious meal with my family.

Have great time with friends.

Watch as the National Team wins by two goals thanks to the two best strikers on the planet.

Enjoy as the Scottish choke on their own bile (despite being fundamental in the creation of the sport, they don't fully understand the offside rule yet).

What a fabulous day.

Haaland can’t score 2 on Cyprus without man city lol

There is no benefit to having the betting industry

I'll play devil's advocate and say while gambling as a whole offers no tangible benefits to society, the benefit of having a betting industry is to keep the money out of organized crime.

People are going to be either way and it's safer for it to be regulated than unregulated. I'd rather someone bet through Bet365 than an underground bookie.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I don't see the controversy Solskjaer does with Man United players turning down the captaincy.

They got to watch Maguire be put down for being the captain for 3 years they made the correct decision, especially if they were one of the younger players less able to deal with the abuse.

With all the BS with the World Cup lately I honestly find myself more excited for the Euros

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Sounds like you watched them when Boothroyd was manager

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The PL banned leverage takeovers afterwards but have taken no action on them after the fact despite the absolute financial robbery they have been doing in plain sight. Man United's own huge revenues are keeping us afloat but this situation at another club would usually mean administration and then the EFL/PL stepping in. But no-one cares because we aren't bankrupt yet

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Colombia play like shit

Spain play like shit

No puedo con esto tio, no es justo Josep.... Estados Unidos tampoco juega a nada, y bueno.....

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Only Arsenal fans can spout such nonsense. It's better to lose a few than draw a lot. Nobody gives a shit about draws. That's the whole point of the 3 point system.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Damn this Spain vs Scotland snoozefest. Gonna take a nap and wake up for some Scaloni sexball champagne.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

In 6 minutes Wilmar Barrios is going to show Ugarte levels, and Uribe is gonna match Valverde. Please tune in

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

England U21s are now 9-1 up against Serbia, shame there isn't a match thread for the game, they've been insane this game.
