Amir Nasr Azadani apparently sentenced to death. بيشرفها رحم ندارن! https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2022/12/13/iranian-footballer-amir-nasr-azadani-sentenced-execution-campaigning/

Sorry to be foozool but who are we talking about?

The Croatia Goalie would be a top contender for Gloden Glove as well!

He plays for Aston Villa I think. that's why his English is good.

you might be right, but because of their rivalry, a lot of Brazil v Argentina games become extremely tense but dour affairs. There's no guarantee that BRA v ARG would've been an exciting game per se. If anything, I found most of Brazil's style this world cup to be very so so. Apart from the 1st...

Yes, I’ve long been suspicious of Iran International. Some of its “scoops” or “exclusives” pieces are either common knowledge already, or that highly speculative that it doesn’t seem to have any grounds in fact. You’re absolutely right that we need to be careful of the application of the age...

Luck finally ran out for Croatia. Other than the game against Canada, in my opinion they were second best in all of their other games. Should’ve gone out in the group stage if Lukaku had converted any one of the five glorious chances he had! You have to credit their fighting spirit as they came...

I don’t know the answer to this but I remember during Italia ‘90, a lot of goals were being credited as an own goal even if they was a slight deflection involved.

There's a lot of players that have scored in 3 world cups. More than 3 would be far less common. I can only think of Klose, Pele and Seeler

Thank Fuck England is out!

^^ 100% agree. I guess the passage of time has proven what a worthless piece of shit this guy has been all along.

That was my initial thought, however, Argentina have not been that inspiring or fluent in their play. They got beat by KSA and struggled in parts against Mexico. They beat a very lacklustre Poland (who’s only aim was not to lose by more than 2). they were never comfortable against Australia...

Fun fact: Croatia has not won a knockout game at the world Cup within 90 minute regulation time, since 1998.

Two great games. as long as its not England, I don’t care who wins this World cup!
