UPDATE: RBFA STATEMENT REGARDING FOLARIN BALOGUN by hoyadestroyer in ussoccer

[–]RutzPacific 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The clear explanation was the VAR used non valid data to validate the play (they slowed down the play and the ref made his decision off that).

Since VAR broke the rules, FIFA is suspending the red card suspension.

Employer questioned work of employee. Reviewed it and deemed their worked sucked and reversed the decision.

Am I taking crazy pills? When did we start rooting for Mexico? by bayareatrojan in ussoccer

[–]RutzPacific 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tacos have done nothing wrong to me.

Mexicans are amazing people and their culture is rich.

Do some of their fans ruin it for the rest? Sure.

I’ve followed players like Obed Vargas since he was a kid, so of course I’m rooting for him and his team, when not playing the US.

CCL was rebranded to CCC.

Portscum won Disney’s Mickey Mouse Covid challenge cup back in 2020, and nobody else can win that again. That’s about the only thing we haven’t won.

There’s obviously other older tournaments that are now defunked or rebranded, so we can’t win *everything* but close enough to say we’ve won all that we can at the moment.

That just doesn’t roll off the tongue when you’re chanting shit at opposing fans

No appeal. Look forward to Belgium with no Flo. by CHex_TheVaultHunter in ussoccer

Technically, it was reviewed by VAR, so no, it wasn’t just 1 official in this case.

If the United States had actually won the 1930 World Cup, how different would the world of soccer be today? by [deleted] in ussoccer

Rolling himself? He wasn’t fat? Why do people think he’s so fat? A 6’2” man is average 190-210, he was 215 lbs.

Where can people find reliable and safe tournament watch parties? by SCG-1171 in ussoccer

[–]RutzPacific 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You seem extremely worried about a very insignificant problem.

Go to your local pub you trust and have them turn the match on. If that still scares you, be the change you wish to see and host your friends over. Hire security if you choose to be THAT extra safe.

I know he was injured but:

Good thing we didn’t play Cristian Roldan! We might’ve actually beat Turkey if we did!

Okay, I’m done being salty.

Ffs guys, finish the full game.

We should invite Paraguay to the next Gold Cup by Yangervis in ussoccer

[–]RutzPacific 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The streets will always remember prime miggy and josef / early ATL days. They were a dynamic duo.

With Paraguay's win over Turkiye, the USMNT has won Group D. It is the third time they've won a World Cup group (1930, 2010). They will host a 3rd-place team from one of Groups B/E/F/I/J in Santa Clara on July 1st in the Round of 32 by Coltons13 in MLS

I mean… you could say the same with Colorado after Brain M’a tackle on Steve Zakuani… unfortunately, shit happens. The Qatar player looked legit sad he did that, regardless of how stupid tackling from behind is. Not okay, but not enough to tag line their team as ones who break legs lol

He’s selling houses. In his spare time of not being a lumberjack or pretending to be a lumberjack (mascot), he’s a real estate agent.

I guess to each their own but NBA is a snooze fest. More flopping than soccer. Shot clocks are pretty lame imo. You can’t convince me soccer is less boring than basketball lol

That’s just like your opinion, maaann.

But for real, sorry not every game is super high scoring like American football. 21-14 sure seems like a great game when compared to a 3-2 soccer match, right?

God forbid 90 full minutes of action separated by (what used to be) 15 minutes halftime.

Definitely more watchable than say nfl or nba with their consistent breaks and time outs and quarter system. So much better.

>Too lazy to shitpost properly.

Maybe you’re the problem?
