Futbol FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Thread v4: Countdown to the Final Edition

[Busgosu]

I was in croatia in 98 too. But in the southern part, a lovely little town called Lovran I think outside Rijeka. Was pretty decent in that part at least, but I saw the rest too

Been in Rijeka couple of times in 2021 I can confirm the area is still nice. Except the roads on the docks!!

Brazil is a shittier country though.

It's complicated. Today Croatia is better but Yugoslavia had bloody war in 90s. I think most of the players don't remember the war at this point tho.

 

[Busgosu]

Lol Mateu La Hoz has to be one of the worst refs in Spain. How TF did he make It there??

 

[JaviBrewski]

its brew day bitches!

 

[Carl Drogo]

Who is the retard in your av?

 

[ferrisjso]

Drake sucks! Fuck him!

Drake is a true mercenary.

Tbf until relatively recently Canadians were sorta seen as British? Not that it matters cause for soccer the UK is split. But yeah Drake has a history of being a patriot for hire.

I'm pretty sure brazilian players who came out of a favela got it rougher than most croatian players. That logic is fucking ridiculous. Spain just beat Croatia in penalties back in 2018... In waterpolo, but still!

Should have played Bruno innit

 

[BroRogan]

I don't see Holland scoring in this game.

Well, at least he had the decency of resigning after a debacle and did not wait to be fired unlike others...

 

[ferrisjso]

I suspect 1-1 penalty shootout again.

 

[JaviBrewski]

[Da Speeit]

I think he's talking about Spain but idk

He’s a mexican who wants to be spanish so bad

 

[Arqueto]

Richarlison is the reason they got sent home fam.

State of that Argentina defence and Romero only just got a game.

He’s been way more consistent the past couple of years.
