Quote from: Zanza on November 24, 2022, 03:02:03 PMIs being pro-Palestine particularly controversial? Certainly not for a German government minister as favoring a two state solution is official policy here.

Beats me, I just saw it quoted on Twitter today. Maybe they think that the West is all pro-Israel? Don't know.

Winning country is supposed to receive a gift, not a punishment.

Free is free :P

Actually, does France have a beer culture?

In the north, certainly. Lots of good Alsatian beers

North and East to be precise, though it was implied with the reference to Alsatian beers.

North means close to Belgium, as in Lille.  :P

I'm not ameircan, I know geography :P
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Brazil just scored against Serbia.

I don't think the last 20 minutes will be as entertaining as in the Portugal-Ghana game but let's see.

Let's bomb Russia!

Only 7 minutes of stoppage time.

Brazil impressive, against a more than decent side.

QuoteRicharlison, who just scored two goals in Brazil's World Cup opener:

-  Is a science ambassador & raised awareness of COVID vaccines

- Donates 10% of his salary to help house ppl undergoing cancer treatment

- Is anti-Bolsonaro & spoken out against police killings

The only Spurs player I respect. Good for him and I'm happy he is playing well for his nation.

Pretty emotional scenes during the Iranian anthem. Players didn't look like they wanted to sing, but they did. Fans crying on the big screen. I doubt this is received better back home.

How is that not a red card

*edit* red now.  But shouldn't have taken VAR.

also, America should be a bit worried.

Apparently Neymar might miss the remaining games until the knockout stage after yesterday's ankle injury. He's out of the next game for sure, and only probable for the last game of the group stage.
