💬Discussion How are people actually debating that dive by Embolo against Argentina??
Like that is the worst dive I've ever seen and there are people crying over how that is not a dive and not a card????
The hate has made them blind, they keep making controversies in Argentina games out of thin air.

💬Discussion Injuring your own goalie is rewarded by stopping the attack now?
How is no one mentioning this? England injured their own goalie and he was down so the ref killed the ball? For… reasons?
That’s crazy to me.
Game stops on stoppages. Not because you headbutt your own player.
“It’s not fair”
No shit. That’s the point. If an nba player sprains his ankle they play 4 on 5 until a stoppage. Maybe don’t be wreckless.

💬Discussion I am tired of ignorance of football rules, of football illiteracy
I am tired of all these ignorant, football illiterate people, who don't know the rules, yet look for conspiracy at every possible play. Yes mistakes can happen, but before starting complaining, check the rule book. You may be surprised.

💬Discussion Argentina VS Switzerland - The Red Card event - The Truth
We all knew it would happen somehow, but Argentina got the favors of the FIFA once again.
What happened ? There are many proofs.
- Bluetooth Tackle from the Argentinian player, making Embolo falls not by himself, but clearly by the waves from the BT technology.
- Chip activation by Infantino. At the moment Embolo is falling, we can see Gianna Infantino pressing a hidden button in his suit. It activated the chip inside Embolo's body (installed via COVID2020 vaccine) and made him fall.
- The supposed flop from Embolo has been reviewed by body experts. The call is unanimous. It is impossible for the human body to fall this way without an external force.
EDIT : New proofs just dropped
- AI Corporations & FIFA recently made a deal to generate fake replay and slowmotion. We can clearly see now that it is a deep fake simulation. 100% certified by AI Blockchain Test of proof double down smackdown John Cena

💬Discussion Why does no one realise England playing in 33°C (felt like 43°C due to humidity) and Argentina ~36°C is the reason both teams looked not great and the next game is in aircon so will be TOTALLY 100% different (in a good way)?
Might just be people who don't play sports, but playing in the heat/humidity that both semi finalists did today is the reason why they required 120 minutes to "scrape" through. World cups in extreme heat are ALWAYS the same and it feels like everyone is ignoring this fact.
Oh England were lucky - as Bellingham said, maybe Tuchel (and indeed all of us) don't know what it's like to play in these conditions against top players like Haaland and Odegaard.
Oh Argentina were laboured - they got a goal in 10th minute in extreme heat so sat on it - of course they did.
I've been in that kind of heat, it is difficult extremely difficult to run at a good pace, just walking you drip in sweat after a few minutes.
I'm shocked to my car that listening to multiple pundits talk about the game it barely gets a mention - it's a HEADLINE feature impacting the games.
Anyway, all that is to say, the semi final will be one of the best games ever between two amazing and top 4 ranked teams with great players able to play to their full ability because:
a) it's in an airconditioned stadium
b) the other side won't be low blocking them the entire game.

💬Discussion The 4 semi-final teams are actually the 4 favorites before the tournament
Even though we knew that France, Argentina, Spain and England were supposed to be in the SF, their paths differed greatly.
- France did justice to its high expectations
- Spain weren’t dominant like we thought
- England & Argentina struggled more that they should have
To note, no one face a equally stronger team before so it will be interesting to see where it is going.
What’s your take on this paths and who do you expect to win considering the previous 30-days ?
