So far, African teams have been better counterweights to European teams than South American teams have.

Mbappe is Pele reincarnated

Here’s me playing the US national anthem at a minor league baseball game in Iowa in 2006 in my Ivory Coast jersey because I was obsessed with Didier Drogba and the team’s story.

Cape Verde fans brought out Goats this evening to celebrate their draw against Spain 😭🐐

we're days away from a "victor wembanyama shares all the same defects as my toxic ex-boyfriend" piece, the likes of which we haven't seen since the bernie sanders campaign.

RT @vampl0vrrr: btw, iran's team are not allowed to stay in the u.s. and will need to travel to mexico after each game. the exhaustion for…

I love football and this World Cup but If you think I’m staying up to watch fucking Iran vs New Zealand then you are absolutely right

Nothing but respect for KAT. All things considered I’m glad he’s going to have a ring in his career.

"Sorry, you can't play in the World Cup because Mark was crap at geography at school."

VOZINHA, the 40-year-old Cape Verde goalkeeper, was in tears after drawing against SPAIN. “I have waited and dreamed for this moment all my life”. There’s nothing like the World Cup. 🇨🇻❤️🥺

Suddenly USMNT could have a real path to the Semifinals

EGYPT HAS ITS FIRST GOAL OF THE 2026 FIFA WORLD CUP! 🇪🇬 Emam Ashour makes it 1-0 over Belgium!

“Good guys are winning again” Meanwhile: - Knicks fans beat a 17 year old into a coma - Jalen Brunson’s dad is a rapist - The Knicks’ owner is a Trump fanboy - Multiple ppl from Epstein’s Island attended games at MSG - Wealthy New Yorkers priced out San Antonio fans in SA GTFO

If he can pull a similar result against Uruguay, he deserves the best GK award

Incredible.

Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha has been the highest-rated player on the pitch at half-time against Spain. He’s faced 13 shots and made 4 saves 🧤 At 40 years old 🤯

Whatever happens for the rest of time: Cape Verde went into the half 0-0 with Spain at the World Cup

🚨🇨🇻 Reminder: Cape Verde's goalkeeper Vozinha is 40-YEARS-OLD. 🤯 This is an incredible performance from him against Spain. 🧤

And you could hear it in his broadcast. I understand he’s human and it’s hard to hide your bias, but as the series went on he made less and less effort to hide it

Hearing a bunch of podcasts talk about a large portion of sports fans turning on Victor Wembanyama. Look, as someone who’s watched every second of Mahomes for almost a decade, and the public fallout, this was inevitable. Someone that gifted takes a sport by storm and announces themselves as the new face of the league, modern society is gonna turn on that level of success every single time. It’s who we are. This is the era of haters. Misery loves company. We’re better at tearing down than we are at building up, unfortunately. This is especially true about the noise on social media. People are 10 times more likely to complain than give credit.
