And hardly anyone seems to give a fuck. Not even a blip on the news this AM. Hell, the Olympic women's team defeat to Canada even got a mention.

Men's Olympic football just isn't that big a deal. The best players in the world aren't taking part.

I guess the US women team being beaten by Canada is a bigger story because they won the most recent women's world cup so that's a pretty big upset.

Well, its been a lame Gold Cup by itself plus has been at the shadows od Tokio Olimpic games...

Basically not much interest on it , even here in Mexico where people are more concentrated on the Olimpic team that will play semifinals vs Brasil tomorrow

Well considering the league has the mighty Honduras, Haiti, Guatemala & Qatar ... I'm also surprised that a small nation like the United States winning didn't get a mention either.

The CONCACAF Gold Cup is the main association football competition of the men's national football teams governed by CONCACAF, determining the continental champion of North America, Central America, and the Caribbean. The Gold Cup is held every two years

There are loads of cups, and this cup isn't even on any list of relevancy in any way.

The reason the woman got attention was because they won on the biggest world cup that is basically the juggernaut cup for men. But as they are woman it even then has little to no relevancy.

I was way more into those woke, purple-haired American bitches losing to Canada. :messenger_beaming:

The USWNT winning was pretty fuckin' celebrated here... idk where you got no relevancy. It set TV ratings records.

Olympics talk in general is basically non-existent in my social circle this year outside of Japanese friends, since it's taking place in Japan and there have been some cool gold medal stories.
