World Cup 2022 Qatar

I missed it. Who was it ? Richarleson or Neymar? I know Richarleson got the goals.

Richarleson one of the all game delayers when his team in front.
I always wondered if there was any mechanism to actually force a player to throw it in bounds. Not enough to ever look it up though.

I’m not sure it’s the same at this level, or the same at any level anymore, but playing as a kid the ref could foul the delay and give the other team the throw in. If it’s chronic I have seen the ref give a yellow.

But I’ve never seen that happen elsewhere. I think what the refs do is really drag out their stoppage time in such an instance.

Once in a blue moon it bites the delaying team, and I always like it when I see it.
 
USA need a Wales/Iran draw so bad
 
Win, lose or draw today. If we win on Tuesday, we're in. Wales isn't beating England.
 
Didn't see Iran winning that one.
I did not as well.

I don’t mean this as positive for our squad, but good for the Iranian team. With all their country is currently dealing with I love to see this.

Yes. The Iran game is more important than today. Could win today and lose to Iran and be out. Iran game is must win or tie (if they win today). If USA ties today and ties Iran they still go through with goal differential. I mean your destiny lies in beating Iran. Things could be worse. Ask Germany. They need to beat Spain.
 
If Berhalter can't coach and tactically beat Iran, wtf is the USA doing in International Football? No excuses in my mind for not beating Iran. Period. If they lose, Berhalter can stay in Qatar.

Yeah, but, I’m far more concerned about the Iran game now after they just beat the team we tied.

Didn’t watch the game but saw the play by play and it looks like a fluke? Wales GK gets red carded late and Iran gets two goals late in stoppage with Wales down a man and a backup GK in?

Am I following that right?

Yes Wales red carded so they got the late goals against a 10 man Wales.

I don't think Iran scores, or even commits to attacking Wales in stoppage time without the red card.
 
Bale sucked today too. I bet he retires after this. No way he is going back to MLS. He is heading to the golf course for sure.

I agree. Kind of fluky and had the advantage of 10 men and a backup goaltender. USA with 11 men and their starting goalie would not be same situation. The second goal Wales opening up and giving up defense to get tieing goal. Wales also tied the USA on a stupid penalty. Without that USA would have won 1-0. So I would say USA and Iran are pretty even.

This takes the shock off seeing a team we need to probably beat just beat the team we drew with. Flukes all around.

Still happy as hell for the Iranians, and glad they get the feel good win here and not their next game.

That said….the history that is there between our countries they probably want to beat us more than anyone, especially if moving on is involved.

It will just be our game to lose. Gulp.
 
Bad news for Brazil. Neymar ligament damage. No long term assessment but misses next game.

I don’t celebrate any players injury, ever. Not even this schmuck.

That said….I don’t feel really bad for the team or their fans. Not sorry.
 
Gio not starting today against England.

I fucking swear if this fuckhead Berhalter leaves him on the bench all game again I'm flying to Qatar to personally kick his ass
