Royalty is a continuous shitposting motion.
Just watched the Germany-Colombia highlights. Phwoar. What a couple of goals from las Chicas Superpoderosas. And Linda Caicedo is only 18! And a cancer survivor! If she wasn't already on Real Madrid she'd be getting the James Rodriguez Memorial Transfer Offer after the World Cup ended.

Sad to see New Zealand go out, but they acquitted themselves fairly well with a win and a draw against the teams going through to the knockouts. A much better performance than they'd ever had before at a World Cup. Also happy to see Norway get off the schneid, they've got so much talent that it would have been rough to see them meekly bow out after last years Euros embarrassment. And the Philippines can still hold their heads high since they take a win from the hosts.

The Spanish must be wondering what the gently caress is going on. All that territory and possession and they’re suddenly 2-nil down.

Patience, speed and precision, isn’t it? The Japanese defence just have suffocated the Spanish attack, who are forced to pass it around without really doing anything. The prospect of a momentary lapse leading to a lightning-speed counter-attack turns into pressure on the Spanish.

Turn it on and it’s 3-0 early in the second half? Holy gently caress. Maybe this will wake up the Japanese mainstream media.

This is like watching a training game with 15 defenders against 7 attackers, except the defenders really can transition and score while the attackers just pass between themselves.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.
