FIFA is the most corrupt organization I have ever seen. When the World Cup was in Qatar they would bring in Nepali people to work. When they showed up they took their passports away and forced them to work in extremely unsafe conditions. People were dying daily building the stadiums.

Didn’t love the penalty kick opportunity to make it 3-2


England can’t hold IMO

Gotta say, it was something to look up at the TV at one point during the game and see the US goalie about a mile out of the net. Before I could even complete the thought, "Yeah, this isn't gonna end well...", it didn't. I guess if you're going to lose, might as well do so in a way that's so goofy, it makes me laugh and having a play like that worked well for that!

That was the icing on the cake.


He had to come out, but BLAST THE PISS OUT OF THE BALL. It's not complicated.

Well, I was there. It was awesome. Tillmans goal was electric and reset the game. But they were AWFUL. Worst match Ive seen USMNT play in a long time. 


6am direct to Seattle from Chicago. Took the redeye home. Quite a day, and unfortunatly USMNT let me down bigtime.

Now that the US is out, I can avoid watching anymore of this thing. I try to love it every four years. And I think I would if soccer wasn’t so fucking boring.

More than tge boring nature of tge actual play, the players throwing themselves to the ground acting hurt is beyond pathetic.
