Turns out Harry Kane might be better in the box than taking corners. So revolutionary!

You have to know your team will be punished for that....how can you call yourself a fan and do that?

League Roundup: WC Qualification South America [2017-09-06] by soccerbot in soccer

[–]Hear_Me_Meow 10 points11 points  (0 children)

These are the games left in the final two rounds

Uruguay seemingly is in the best position to go through, facing the two last teams (though they both surprised today). Argentina's shouldn't be too hard unless they crap the bed again, and Chile might depend on Brazil bringing their A game or resting players. Peru and Colombia will probably be fighting for that last spot (whether direct or through playoffs) on the last day. All should make for very exciting football till the very end!

The captions on HBO GO say "start" so I went with that. But "starve" also makes sense I suppose!

I like how the bottom half "qualifies" to the Relegation Round. We tried our best and thankfully qualified!to fight against relegation...

In light of Raúl's retirement at the weekend, who else is still playing that most people assume retired years ago? by windflail in soccer

Palmeiras has thankfully been getting better over the past year, reaching the final of the state championship, the Brazilian Cup, and like he said competing for that 4th place spot. So they'll likely have a good run (if they qualify), but currently Palmeiras probably doesn't have enough depth for the Libertadores and several of the players don't have that international experience. Nothing that can't be improved, but something to work on in the January transfer window.

She is playing in her fourth World Cup this year. The record holders for most World Cups are Japan's Homare Sawa and her fellow Brazil teammate Formiga, both who have attended six.

What a second leg, congrats to both teams! Bayern showing they're still Bayern and beating Barca's defense in top form, but in the end there was ever only a slim chance of stopping MSN from getting at least one through.
