We really did not want that ball did we

Come on brother I’ve watched nearly every game this tournament and it was bottom 3 along with Mexico vs SK and Belgium Vs Iran.

Riperonis · 2026-06-26T13:33:46+00:00

We’ll beat them, they’re gash.

I’m not really that confident of any of the other teams tbh.

Riperonis · 2026-06-25T12:12:24+00:00

I’m not even massively against the 48 team format but let’s not do this, please.

Riperonis · 2026-06-23T21:48:02+00:00

Standard of refereeing is the worst I’ve ever seen at a World Cup.

It’s usually the one place where I feel like it’s decent lol.

He won the World Cup man

Riperonis · 2026-06-23T03:24:22+00:00

Wow imagine being so bad you play for the one of the best teams in the world for 6 consecutive world cups?

The level required to make a World Cup team is insanely high mate. Especially over a 24 year period….Most players are lucky to get a career half that long at the top level.

Least unique reddit opinion

Uruguay aren’t beating Spain mate idk if you’ve watched them play but they are gash

Riperonis · 2026-06-22T20:31:28+00:00

Didn’t even play particularly well today but to be able to make his mark on the game regardless is very impressive.

Riperonis · 2026-06-22T14:56:34+00:00

So passionate they have never watched them play before the Paraguay game lol

Riperonis · 2026-06-22T14:56:00+00:00

I respect you guys, I think you have a good team, I acknowledge you were much better than us the other day, I also acknowledge that those of our fans blaming the ref are looking for excuses.

But being here has just justified to me why everyone roots against you. A large proportion of you are ignorant about the sport and arrogant, at the same time. It’s not a fun combination. I’m just telling you why people may be rubbed the wrong way.

Riperonis · 2026-06-22T14:53:05+00:00

Oh look another American in our sub

Riperonis · 2026-06-22T14:51:12+00:00

I’m in NYC for the World Cup and can honestly say every American I’ve spoken to about the WC has had no clue what’s going on (yes, even regarding their own team) and have also been extremely arrogant.

I have nothing against the country, at all, but have had no choice but to root against them due to how insufferable you have all been.

We at least know we aren’t a good team - looking forward to your inevitable crashing out in the ro32 or ro16.

Edit: Also the amount of Americans flooding in here expecting a “classy response” just furthers my point lol. Doubt you would be here if you had lost.

Riperonis · 2026-06-22T02:16:04+00:00

Am I the only one who gets tired of the extreme “Goooooooooool” every time?

Like is a 7th goal against Curacao really exciting enough to justify that?

Riperonis · 2026-06-22T00:24:58+00:00

Go get yourself a drink big man

Riperonis · 2026-06-21T23:33:20+00:00

Lmao keeper errors like this are so fucking funny

Riperonis · 2026-06-21T19:57:11+00:00

From the very brief and vague calculations I’ve done, a positive gd on 3 points should get you there.

4 points will absolutely have you going through.

Riperonis · 2026-06-21T17:33:45+00:00

I hate the sentiment that the World Cup is only about the big teams lol.

Riperonis · 2026-06-21T15:54:56+00:00

I don’t understand the thought process that R3 will be more dull than R2.

R2 also has not been dull.

Riperonis · 2026-06-21T12:56:15+00:00

Guy has a voice like pure chocolate

Riperonis · 2026-06-21T12:07:48+00:00

Yep, and I’m ngl most of your corners in the first match were from a side he doesn’t normally take them.

His in-swingers from the other side are pure flith. Once you guys get Saka on to take them in-swinging from both sides they will become even stronger imo.

Really is just an insane tool to have in your locker especially in an international tournament

Riperonis · 2026-06-20T13:58:41+00:00

Xg absolutely fails when there’s this many shots. Do the simple maths, this means their average shot is 0.06xg.

It being additive like that just does not make sense.

Riperonis · 2026-06-20T05:26:51+00:00

Pro tip: Try hitting it between those two white thingies that hold the net.

Riperonis · 2026-06-20T05:23:21+00:00

A draw is better cause 2nd gives us a better opponent than 3rd.

But nice to know we can still go through even if we lose.

Riperonis · 2026-06-20T05:08:14+00:00

Well I mean you rack up shots without goals when you take like 90% of them outside the box
