Outstanding turnaround of only 16 hours to make that critical decision!

I actually like Ronaldo more after that interview he did but that's one of the things I really have never liked about him is he is very selfish yet that same selfishness as I guess why he's been able to get as many goals as he has.

And not that I want to compare all the time but his biggest counterpart doesn't do the things he does and is a lot more skilled to involve his teammates more consistently and that's just not my opinion that is something you can probably see for yourself.

Ronaldo wants every goal and he's only happy if he's scoring it's not about the team as much. And this is coming from me liking him more for doing that uncensored interview.

As much as the man likes to score and he comes off selfish. He’ll never not pass the ball when he he knows it’s the right move. The man has the most assists in champions league and never hesitates to pass when it’s the proper decision. If other players put away all his passes last year ManU would’ve been in the champions league. But the whole team was missing the sitters he was giving them

He really wants goals though which is what any team would want from a player.

 

[TaylorSwiftFan]

It was a fluke Fernandes goal.

 

[hemo memo]

It is ridiculous that he even mentioned it. I mean it is your teammate who scored and you are playing for the country. It shouldn’t matter.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Ecuador needs to pick up the pace. Rooting for at least the tie.

 

[Batiman]

You could see he was saying he’s not sure if it glaze him.

 

[12Goblins]

I mean, if ronaldo hadn't went for it the goalie would have just gotten it. but who really gives a shit

 

[AJUMP23]

You could see he was saying he’s not sure if it glaze him.

Graze. Graze him. I am just going to assume you are watching cooking shows for the glazing.

 

[BadBurger]

Is it weird that I am more looking forward to Wales v England than I am USA v Iran? You know, being a Yank and all?

It was a fluke Fernandes goal.

Whoa, reading that article, it's cool they have highly sensitive sensors inside the balls. Fascinating. Sometimes I forget just how serious of business football is.

 

[Batiman]

Graze. Graze him. I am just going to assume you are watching cooking shows for the glazing.

Lol I’m not sure how that happened. I did eat a honey glazed donut this morning though…

 

[Batiman]

Ya if he wasn’t in that position it wouldn’t have been a goal.

The hair of god

 

[The Fartist]

Ya if he wasn’t in that position it wouldn’t have been a goal.

The hair of god

Pelo Dios (Spanish) or even better Cabelo Deus (Portuguese)

not that the goal was anywhere near as important as Maradona's

Why are they using more technology and video assisted refereeing for things like offsides, but not penalty reviews?

When the 2022 World Cup made its debut on Sunday, it kicked off one of the most significant in-game uses of technology in sports history.

All tournament long, match balls will contain a sensor that collects spatial positioning data in real time — the first World Cup to employ such a ball-tracking mechanism. This, combined with existing optical tracking tools, will make VAR (video assistant referees) and programs like offside reviews more accurate and streamlined than they’ve ever been. Combining these two forms of tracking has long been a holy grail of sorts in technology circles, and FIFA’s use of the ball sensor in particular will serve as a highly public test case over the next four weeks.

Time for the US to dominate Iran.

 

[AJUMP23]

When America scores I am calling that person the Ayatollah GOALmani.

 

[BadBurger]

Pulisic has so many great runs at defenders, but USA ends up with too many touches and losing their chance. So tired of seeing that play out.

 

[MadAnon]

England is meh with Sterling, but without him they are even worse.

 

[AJUMP23]

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

 

[The Fartist]

 

[AJUMP23]

Polisic is hurting.

 

[BadBurger]

 

[AJUMP23]

Ayatollah GOALmani.

POLISIC!

 

[Winter John]

Well, well, well

 

[12Goblins]

Dam, just took a knee to the testes

 

[Maiden Voyage]

 

[The Fartist]

WTF? He was onside

 

[Agent_Nobody]

I’m guessing they’re saving the bench clearing fistfight for the second half.

 

[12Goblins]

Omg that offsides was so close

 

[AJUMP23]

WTF? He was onside

Ya he was and you could tell in the replay. So could the commentary team. Replay booth is full of people that hate the US.

 

[SirKicksalot]

Do they have the goddamn terminator as assistant ref? How do you even see that offside lmao

 

[LiquidMetal14]

What a goal USA. Deserved more too. Hope Pullisic is ok.

 

[BadBurger]

Do they have the goddamn terminator as assistant ref? How do you even see that offside lmao

They have sensors inside of the balls this world cup that assists with things like that. Cool tech.

[LiquidMetal14]

Another thing, that was such a bullshit offside and how fast they moved on from it. It was a goal, needed a lot more time.

 

[ThisIsMyDog]

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Take that wales.

 

[AJUMP23]

Take that wales.

They have been taking it from England for Centuries now.

 

[AJUMP23]

That looks onsides......

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Come on there how do you let that play outside US!

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

They have been taking it from England for Centuries now.

C’est la vie.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Come on, these touches from USA have to be better.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Take that wales. Again.

 

[DGrayson]

I never watcha lot of soccer/football but that guy Weah looks so athletic like he should dominate but its not the case.

I know his dad was really good which doesnt mean much for him but it seems like he should be better.

There is nothing better than England beating Wales, Scotland or France in any sport. Absolutely loving it.
