slufanskip Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 I guess it’s obvious why you shouldn’t let a country buy its way into a WC and then give them a top seed in their group. What a joke. And this is a team that has trained together almost exclusively for the last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierPal Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Response to Qatar outlawing beer at WC 2 days before start Budweiser posted a message on Twitter on Friday saying, "Well, this is awkward" before the post was later deleted.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Elrond Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 They knew if they announced the beer ban earlier, a lot of fans wouldn’t have come. So they said that beer will be there for the past 12 years. Then, 48 hours prior to the games, after everyone couldn’t cancel their plans, they make this change. Classic bait and switch. I’m glad they lost to Ecuador today, I only wish the score was higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierPal Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Gio and Aaronson on the bench. Interesting. Sargent over Ferreira Reem and Z anchoring the back line. Two locals on the pitch. slufanskip likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams almost never get 9 points in the group… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobillsgo Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 2nd half we played like a totally different team, not in a good way. Zim can’t give that penalty away in that situation. It’s a shame because he played well otherwise. pulisic was really average, other than the through ball for Weah, and his free kick delivery was terrible. not sure what’s up with Reyna, and why he didn’t play… last thought, I was told by many on this board that it was silly to complain about Morris being included on the roster, because he wouldn’t see the field anyway. Well, when we needed a goal guess who GGG brings on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Elrond Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I think the question in our group is who else besides England moves on. With the tie to “Team Cymru”, we need to probably beat Iran and maybe tie England to guarantee an advance. Our easiest path out of this group involved winning this game, then beating Iran.
