Soccer players seem like such horrible chokers sometimes when it comes to putting the ball in the god drat net. I'm sure it's harder than it looks but christ. Like when the US had that opportunity at the end of the game against Belgium to maybe steal one and nope the guy just kicks it up in the air.

Bigger chokers than the ravens?

Brazil actually built a stadium UNDER the sea as well. They'd reached a point where they figured gently caress it, why not?

No I actually really like soccer this part of it just confuses me. I feel like there should be more of these goofy outcomes but sometimes it seems like even god is on the side of the favorites like when that Chile ball hit the crossbar at the end of the Brazil game.

I'm serious. Most of them are poor athletes, look how often corner kicks don't even go past the first man. Its a jogging sport where occasionally poo poo happens
