Apparently Dumfries was sent off during KFTM

18 yellows (2 to coaches) and a red, how about that.

:negative: what a bad night for refereeing

Wait was that a straight red then?

The BBC posted:

Remarkably the only man to collect two yellows and be sent off was Denzel Dumfries, and that was after Lautaro Martinez has scored the winning shootout spot-kick. Dumfries had launched himself at the celebrating Argentina players, who in turn had taunted the Dutch players following the winning strike.

Both Messi and Ronaldo are one of the greatest players all time, their plays on YouTube was magical. They both train very hard and Ronaldo telling people to drink water instead of Coca Cola was awesome.

Unfortunately it’s hard to root for Ronaldo when his nickname is penaldo, his narcissist tendencies, diva antics, and worst of all paying hush money for sexual misconduct.

Messi had an image of keeping a low profile, making plays, being some super god tier strategist, focusing more on the game than some marketing celebrity. But the Panama papers tax dodge was criminal and now there’s this match.

Maybe it’s Messi’s last world cup but so he will finally reveal his deep habits but as a casual world cup viewer , I’m kind irked with how much Argentina could get away this match.

If only Neymar/Messi/Ronaldo/mbappe can all get eliminated at once but too big of a fantasy I guess. They are capable of making great plays but I feel like their personalities are taking over the national team spirit.

Ok that was a lot of :qq: I was up from 10pm to 6am to watch the games and now there’s a dead American journalist. Time for France vs England !!

He's also a Saudi shill and took top money to be under the employ of Qatar at PSG, OP.

At night, Bavovnyatko quietly comes to the occupiers’ bases, depots, airfields, oil refineries and other places full of flammable items and starts playing with fire there
So apparently 2-2 is the most dangerous scoreline now

Still in awe of Brazil giving up a counter-attack goal, in the 117th minute, when they were already winning and just needed to see the game out.

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.

To team of geriatrics that people have been calling tired and leggy since about 20 minutes into their first group game
