Sports FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022

I wanted to see today's friendly Spain-Jordan to see sensations before the big day.

Honestly, they are not very positive. 1-3 With some doubts. Better the second part than the first. Our defense is the weakest area, without a doubt. Little forcefulness. To be fair, it could have ended 2-3. I understand that it is a kind of training, but I did not like it at all. They have played at 50% or less, fearful of possible injury. There are youngsters with charisma and goals like Gavi and Nico Williams who are not very positive.

Laporte as a winger? What kind of experiment is this? wtf.

I hope that next time they defend better, otherwise I would bet on Rodri as a defender, and he is not. What a critical situation! Yea, our center backs serve the ball well but it seems they don't know how to defend. Today a very bad Jordan has scored without doing absolutely nothing.

I'm sorry if I take this too seriously, the hype is sky high.

Not going to lie Laporte as a winger is wild. There's nothing wrong with taking it too serious that's what it's all about!

I'm not going to lie I'm not high on Spain, but that's honestly because of the manager, I don't like his formation / style and the players that are not on the roster that should be. Sergio Ramos is not retired for the national team (to my knowledge) and the games he has played for PSG this season he's definitely worthy to be on the Spain roster for the World Cup.
 
thats a good list fs, but me personally would have pick the netherlands over senegal
the rest seems pretty fair imo
 
sup AndViet I said I'd post here

Group A: Netherlands, Ecuador, Senegal, Qatar
Group B: England, Wales, USA, Iran
Group C: Argentina, Mexico, Poland, Saudi Arabia
Group D: France, Denmark, Tunisia, Australia
Group E: Spain, Germany, Japan, Costa Rica
Group F: Belgium, Croatia, Canada, Morocco
Group G: Brazil, Switzerland, Serbia, Cameroon
Group H: Portugal, Uruguay, Ghana, South Korea

Only hot takes are Ecuador > Senegal (worse on paper but Senegal aren't used to being without Mane) and Canada > Morocco (extreme bias but feasible).
Hard decisions were Wales vs USA (both ass), France vs Denmark (I just don't have the balls to put Denmark 1st), Japan vs Costa Rica (Costa Rica unpredictable imo), Switzerland vs Serbia (biased towards Switzerland).

Argentina are winning the whole thing, France won't make semis, Ronaldo will score a pen Lialiabeast SIUUUU

Also, reminder that Prime Modric > Prime Ozil

Very bold predictions, Ecuador making it out over the Netherlands is quite a bold statement. I disagree with Cameroon making it out of the group, and I do think Portugal will get out of the group unless it's based on the Ronaldo drama (Man United) and carries on throughout the tour. Lack of better term, Portugal has to shit the bed.

Actually I made my prediction based in what I want to happens and not focus in what will happens :totodiLUL:
 
predicted over a week ago, ratio, gg ez, Modric clears

Finals: Brazil vs Uruguay
Time for the payback muchachos (we don't forget 1950!). That would be nice a final between South America again. :pip:

I can see it happening but Uruguay will have to be playing amazing and have one of the best WC runs in recent times (shoutout to Forlan)

That's what happens when you leave Liverpool...
 
Breaking news: Benzema suffers an injury and will miss the 2022 World Cup. Benzema just won the Ballon d'Or, after being in hiatus from the French National team from 2016-2021 for blackmailing allegations. This is definitely a blow for France's World Cup endeavors, and sad to see since Benzema was going to be a fantastic add to their offense.
 

Very inspiring feeling opening ceremony for the World Cup featuring Morgan Freeman.

Qatar ended up losing 2-0 in the opening against Ecuador what is everyone's thoughts about the first game thus far?
 
I don't know the level of Qatar, but I expected something more. The result could have been different, but four minutes into the game they annulled a valid goal.

Qatar never competed, although they tried to score at least one goal on the few chances they had.
 
the offside was correct, Qatar got spanked either way though.

This is when the offside happened. The yellow foot you can see under the Qatar keeper is offside, since it's past the keeper and there's only 1 Qatar defender ahead of it. The ball bounces off a different Ecuador player in this frame, and then the player with the offside foot is the next person to touch the ball. Extremely confusing call, especially since the replays sucked, but it was the right one.

Ecuador scored more goals today than in its last five friendlies combined.

It's been over a year since Ecuador scored twice in one match.

I think Ecuador dominated the entire game, I feel from the few chance they had it just was never going to amount to a goal with their effort levels

Yeah I do think it was offside, but even if it wasn't doesn't even change the result of the game other than Valencia potentially having a hatrick on the opening day.

So England is already dominating Iran and it’s only half time ‍

They destroyed Iran 6-2 lmaooo
I expected Iran to do better tbh, they played well until the first goal conceded
they made twice as many fouls as England and I thought they could get a draw with England but at least they scored 2 goals against England:woop:
