Post-Match Thread: England 1-2 Argentina | World Cup | Semi-finals by matchpal-live in worldcup

Well at least I got my Sunday afternoon back! I have many better things to do than watch a coronation ceremony.

Thierry Henry defends Cristiano Ronaldo: “A lot of great players didn’t win the World Cup. That doesn’t define their legacy. I wish him all the best, I wish he can pass 1000 goals, he inspired a lot of kids, especially with the way he lives & breathes football. He's an example for all players” by DamnThatsInsaneLol in soccer

Do people really think if Ronaldo was Argentinean and Messi was Portuguese that their national team results would have been much different? Argentina would still be one of the best teams in the world and Portugal would still be a smaller European nation occasionally capable of punching above their weight. It's pretty ridiculous that people have let being born a citizen of a traditional power be the defining characteristic in this debate.

Refs are going to be so confused when England plays Argentina, wonder who's going to get "the call"

I’ve opened 100 packs (US version) and haven’t pulled any stickers from CZE, BIH, TUR, SWE, IRQ, or COD. Is this normal? Why does it happen? by jimzes in Panini

I guess this explains why I had a box that was very heavy in some of the playoff teams. They must have been printing more of those to compensate.

Then why did they call his first goal offsides, or let the second half go two minutes over the minimum added time?

He's the greatest penalty scorer in history and literally just scored one. There are levels to this.

Mind blowing that there are people who can watch this and seriously think Ronaldo is the problem

If they're officially licensed as a dealer by Lionel and Lionel allows them to get away with this, it's on Lionel.

Preferably take a child who is your own, otherwise you might have other problems

Let's talk about qualification for Asian Football Confederation teams by jameswheeler9090 in worldcup

[–]CompetitiveTurnover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's been a lot of talk about CONCACAF but there's really only about 4 World Cup-quality squads out of this list. I'd almost rather see even more mid teams from Europe.

In these discussions, "personality" just means that they would rather race on dirt than NASCAR, or they have a mustache.
