In regards to Sweden... I guess? They have few premier league players right? Might just be my lack of knowledge in that regard but I don't think of them as a big team.

I'll give you Croatia england though.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".

On viking stuff I feel the same as I do about the national flag. Use it. It doesn't belong to the fascists and I don't think we should let them take our symbols.

Quote from: Josquius on June 23, 2026, 11:47:52 AMEngland - Croatia on paper was definitely a big team game. Not long ago Croatia were finalists. Though they seem to have fallen off hard.
Yeah I think it's just age and there's a few teams this year who are sort of just post or towards the very end of golden generations. And broadly they seem to be playing the old hits again v trying to bring in new players. I'm not sure if Croatia have young players coming through.

But with England-Croatia I found it kind of poignant seeing Modric get subbed off in the first round of subs.
Let's bomb Russia!

Quote from: Norgy on June 23, 2026, 10:51:16 AMIt has of course been called nationalistic and fascist already. I find it more funny.



I bet it's not enough for Kristian 'Varg' Vikernes. :P Assuming he cares for football, which I doubt, but I will be happily proven wrong.

In several surveys, the overwhelming first choice for what makes Canada unique is multiculturalism. This, in a world collapsing into stupid, impoverishing hatreds, is the distinctly Canadian national project.

Blocking the goalies kick when you're 4 ahead is kind of a dick head move.

Yep. You sure as shit shouldn't let right wing morons take ownership of all of Norse History. They don't actually know jack shit about it anyway.

It is the World Cup, not a charity event. Sucks to suck.

Pissed that you did not jinx the Selecção or is it because of Ronaldo's goals? :P
Meaning more Ronaldo playing 95 minutes again.

Pfft, if anything Valmy was the official football jinx :P

And I'm glad he scored. One because I like him, and two because now he'll stop sulking :D

Ronaldo doing some pressing? At last! :P
Plus access to the second round might depend on a single goal, as in ending first, second or third.

I thought they downgraded goal differential in this tournament? Now head to head results take priority, isn't it?
