Any Futbol (soccer) fans out there?

you are not wrong. Need more international games. Last time they played Netherlands was 2015.
MLS games not cutting it.

 

Gotta wonder if its just a reality that all of our most elite athletes are in the nfl and nba.

 

that is probably true but my son plays soccer and I see a lot of kids playing so I have hopes in the future.

 

cte alone should do this

 

strong performance for les Bleus.
That double penalty at the end was weird.

 

Japan is so disciplined in how they move the ball. Not afraid to play back and create space - no one is greedy, willing to pull back an attack.

Also very disciplined in their defense with midfielders playing both roles beautifully. This Croatia/Japan game is like watching a couple of grand masters play a game of chess.

 

That goal was a beauty!

 

Damn!

 

I really like both of these teams - I don't have a favorite. Japan, though - they are creating some crazy momentum in this tournament.

 

Nice cross and header in for the equalizer

 

We gonna see PK's?

 

Here we go

 

Well, that's it.

 

I'm unsure why Japan are taking these low, weak, fully saveable shots. My 12 year old keeper would easily save those shots!

 

Well, maybe it's still a contest..

 

Wow

 

Those were awful penalty kicks

 

For sure. If you're going mid-height you need power. These were all within arms reach of center, mid height, and lacked power. So sad because Japan played a hell of a game up until pens.

 

That's how you do it

 

These announcers are terrible. You can tell they have no idea who Son is or that he's a pretty fkn important guy. They're not even calling his name out properly. What turds.

 

What are you watching it on?

I'm watching on Peacock ~ Espanol

 

Ah, Fox 4k for me.

 

Brazil flying...

 

The Richarlison goal and the setup was perfect. Sooo good.

 

Glad S. Korea got one at least

 

Both teams had some decent opportunities on goal.... Thought Spain would have been up by now though

 

ET

 

That one was close

PK's
