I hated you guys last night. My poor poor Mexico :( but at least it was one of, if not, the most entertaining game of the whole tournament. Good luck against Norway though lol

[u/AnotherLexMan → u/Anghel412]

England has been involved in two really entertaining matches this tournament.  That really is unheard of.

[u/RMCapricorn84 → u/AnotherLexMan]

They no longer play Southgate ball

[u/bahamut19 → u/RMCapricorn84]

People are so fucking ungrateful, I remember a whole decade before Southgate when we couldn't string 2 passes together.

Southgate has many flaws but he also basically fixed our national team, turning us from being a running joke to a genuine outside contender for trophies.

[u/Expo737 → u/RMCapricorn84]

True but let's not forget that Southgate ball got us all the way to the European Finals where we lost on penalties...

[u/D-Rich-88 → u/Anghel412]

It was a great game! I think the Portugal v Croatia is neck and neck with it for entertainment value

[u/40ozfosta → u/D-Rich-88]

Cabo Verde Argentina

[u/Anghel412 → u/40ozfosta]

Yeah that had to be my number one. I was rooting for them and not just to hate on Argentina but genuinely wanted to see Cape Verde perform a miracle.

[u/madrats → u/40ozfosta]

Cabo Verde deserved better

[u/cityexile → u/D-Rich-88]

Portugal v Croatia, Cape Verde v Argentina and last night were all bangers. For me, last night had more sustained drama throughout the match.

[u/Beard_o_Bees → u/Anghel412]

poor poor Mexico

That was a wild match. Mexico losing while the opposing team was down a player wasn't the expected outcome.

[u/D-Rich-88 → u/Beard_o_Bees]

That second goal two minutes after the first was tough. They almost overcame it but fell short. I don’t know the team well but it seemed like their strikers or midfielders just couldn’t get any penetration against England’s back line. Their one attack they kept trying and failing at was going wide and kicking a crosser

[u/enjoiall → u/D-Rich-88]

Yeah the red messed up their game-plan more than it helped imo. They kept just sending crosses in on a taller team who stacked the box.

[u/AtreyuTrinity → u/Anghel412]

It was my first game I caught to support all my Mexican neighbors because they were all totally getting into it the whole neighborhood was electric.

As a neutral fan I couldn't believe what a good game it was, But I was heartbroken for all my neighbors who are genuinely good people and who I adore.

[u/CountryMayhem → u/BasicBanter]

There is still Argentina, Paraguay and USA in front of you guys.

[u/Iron_Aez → u/CountryMayhem]

Way I see it, Paraguay lost their spot when they lost.

[u/Project0range → u/Iron_Aez]

Very controversial take!

[u/doubleshotinthedark → u/BasicBanter]

don't worry, I'm sure plenty of people still hate you after last night 

[u/Faangdevmanager → u/BasicBanter]

Personally, as an American, I was rooting so hard for your team yesterday after learning what the Mexican fans did near your hotel. Setting off fireworks and loud music with total impunity from the local police to tire you before your game against Mexico was so lame and unsportsmanlike that I watched the whole game. My first and only World Cup game I watched end to end. Well done eliminating Mexico and their cheating fans.

[u/Jefe_Wizen]

So business as usual, basically.

[u/Brave_Ad_7125 → u/Jefe_Wizen]

[u/Short-Shower90 → u/Brave_Ad_7125]

The hope lasted just long enough to remind everyone what disappointment feels like again.

[u/Pantsickle → u/chrisofchris]

If America won, he's totally the type of guy that'd hog all the spotlight, take all the credit, and probably take the trophy too.

[u/Futileexercise1308 → u/Pantsickle]

FIFA had already said he can hoist the trophy with the winners, because the president is a soft headed man child. I feel sorry for whoever wins and has to share the stage with a shit stinking pedophile.

[u/No_Strike655 → u/Futileexercise1308]

Would be fucking hilarious if anyone else but USA wins and they just refuse to deal with this bullshit

[u/Material_Cell_4792 → u/No_Strike655]

That guy is like a stupid spoilt brat with too much power. He's the kind of guy who will literally make it a big issue if he feels he didn't get enough credit and "respect".

Sadly, they would most likely just have to go along with him just so he doesn't throw a tantrum and makes everything about himself.

[u/xxvb85 → u/No_Strike655]

I really hopes that happens.

[u/Proof-Peak-9274 → u/No_Strike655]

I would step away and let him hold it by himself, make him seem like even more of a joke to anyone outside of America.

[u/likekoolaid → u/No_Strike655]

luckily you can trust mbappe to absolutely stonewall anyone else who wants to hoist the trophy

[u/Scoobydewdoo → u/No_Strike655]

FYI, it's traditional for the championship winners of most USA-based sports leagues to visit the White House. Teams have often completely refused or just left it up to the individuals quite often during the Orange One's time as president.

[u/Asleep-Housing2589 → u/chrisofchris]

It’s not him, we are saying this happens every World Cup

[u/mytempredd → u/Asleep-Housing2589]

[u/MidnightPotatoChip → u/ProfessorNoPuede]

I don't think half the people here are up to date

[u/euphorie_solitaire → u/epsteinwasmurdered2]

Don't get your hopes up, the likelihood of the US winning the world cup is insanely small. The only way an inferior team can win a tournament is if they have a rock solid defense and also get kind of lucky all the way to the final. The US defense is not that great, and the gap in attacking talent with other nations is immense. They'll struggle against Belgium, imagine against the likes of Spain or France

[u/ChapterN7 → u/euphorie_solitaire]

If the US doesn't make it, I'm rooting for France just to piss the rest of Europe off and because it's our 250th and they showed up for us.

[u/videogames5life → u/ChapterN7]

France is our first day 1

[u/pkb369 → u/euphorie_solitaire]

Or blatant corruption. I still remember 2002 where the referees weren't even hiding the fact that they were favouring south korea vs italy and spain.

[u/Medium_Mortgage_376 → u/euphorie_solitaire]

Belgium isnt that good and has struggled to defend as well, the US can beat them, but yeah they have no chance at winning the cup

Watching them play yesterday made me so happy. Mostly it was the closeups of Haaland being a giant goofball. I hope they do well.

[u/gordogg24p → u/sandybuttcheekss]

You can argue till you're blue in the face about who the best player in this tournament has been. One thing is for sure though: no one in the world is having more fun playing on the field than Erling Haaland.

Either way, I've enjoyed hanging out with our foreign cousins and I wish they could have more sleepovers with us.

[u/LionstrikerG179 → u/Anghel412]

It's like, we never win shit anyways

To be fair, inbetween world cups you get the Olympics where the US wins constantly. It's nice to have one worldwide event you guys aren't super involved in.

[u/chetlin → u/LionstrikerG179]

China is the country where World Cup and Olympics performance are two extremes. I hope to see them in the World Cup again sometime.

India too, they have the most people but do badly at everything that isn't cricket basically.

[u/Turnip_Fight → u/Rough-Breadfruit-611]

It’s such an awful snapshot of the general public, people are always so shocked when the real world doesn’t follow the same moral rhythms as a low-income person in their early 20’s

[u/JalapenoPopPoop → u/[deleted]]

I think a bigger factor is how many people on reddit have no social life/friends off the internet. You've got people that will argue that it's totally normal to have no real life friends and only socialize on video games and discord. You've got people who talk about having literally 0 friends by the age of 25 as if that's a totally normal life path to go down. People who talk about how the only person they socialize with is their wife and they hate any form of socialization that isn't that.

These people don't reflect the real world because they aren't part of it. They're fuckin losers

[u/Efficient_Force_2234 → u/Coleburg86]

It's also funny that we're having this conversation in the first place because there's no way USA is winning the fucking football worldcup lmao. So much outrage over a red card incident as if the player in question is Mbappe or Haaland.

Isnt France talking to fifa now about overturning a call? What exactly did the USA do to make them overturn anything?

France is attempting to do so using the USA case as a precedent.

So we gonna talk about Messi doing the same thing and getting a red card revoked?

do you mean Ronaldo?

[u/bucky1234567899 → u/goldflame33]

Ronaldo during this years tournament sure, but Messi has had red cards pulled back in the past. And the guy is also correct Messi literally stepped on a guys calf full cleat.

[u/YellowDucky92 → u/Letscho95]

You guys wanted USA to lose before that as well let’s not kidd ourselves here

[u/Icy-Employee-6453 → u/Letscho95]

Lets not leave out the context of how controversial that red card was in the first place. I've seen a lot of fans from other teams fake outraged because they wanted USMNT to be unfairly crippled for the next match.

I feel like you guys are making a much bigger deal about this than it really is. One player doesn’t make that much of a difference, just seems like Europeans finding the one reason to hate on the US on this topic as well

If you have a problem with this, you should have a problem with Ronaldo (Portugal) and Argentina and want them to lose as well. Even more so considering he played 2 games that he was banned for. I don’t recall seeing this outcry then?

Great job making this “great sport” seem inviting. Goddamn there’s so much drama in soccer, take me back to the NFL

[u/WolverineDDS → u/Some_Razzmataz]

European reaction has been absolutely insane. I expected a lot more "who cares we'll spank their yankee asses anyways" responses from them but apparently no this is the worst thing that has ever happened to them.
