Can they not be a bit more flexible with the hydration breaks? Switzerland made subs about 90 seconds ago, just do the whole thing then

I’m in so deep with adidas World Cup gear that I half fancy one of these ref shirts

USMNT head coach Mauricio Pochettino is not a fan of FIFA’s hydration breaks: “I don’t like it. I only like it when the conditions are extreme, but when the conditions are good, it is unnecessary.” At this World Cup, hydration breaks in each half for every single game, even the ones that are indoors.

Jamie Vardy: "[We] Played #ManCity away [in 2023], lost. @ErlingHaaland just scored and we're kicking off. I'm stood next to him on the halfway line and I let out a little laugh and got battered for it [by Leicester fans]... "But I was only laughing because Haaland had come back and just turned round and went, 'I got that run from watching videos of you'. So I had a little chuckle and went, 'Well can you f*****g stop doing it?!'" [via @VardyPartyPod]

Big fan of the massive gold FIFA above the pitch. Exactly the kind of extravagance these events should stick to

I’ve have a look through the City squad player by player for @TheAthleticFC, assessing their situations heading into the summer. 🇭🇷 For example, Gvardiol has been considering an exit but the current signs are that he’ll stay at City nytimes.com/athletic/7342246…

🗣️Aymeric Laporte on his injury at the very end of the 2021-22 season. “I knew that in that moment, I was f***ed because I couldn’t even run, and we had two games left and no centre-back available.. “We were losing 2-0 against Villa. The second goal they scored, I couldn’t turn myself to take the ball, I was in the right line but I couldn’t move. My leg was stiff, I couldn’t even flex my own leg, I couldn’t really walk. “And then we won the game and it was one of the craziest games I’ve ever seen. I was very happy but after I had to go for surgery and I never came back as a main player.” @TheAthleticFC @SamLee

🗣️ Aymeric Laporte on City’s Champions League heartaches and controversies. “The emotions were terrible. Against Madrid it was a shit sensation, so lucky. And against Tottenham it was the worst in my life. These two games… “Against Tottenham, we lost because of the hand of Llorente. And the year after, the first game of the season is against them. I flicked to Gabriel Jesus, it hit my head and my hand, and the VAR said handball. Who can say this one is handball and last year we lost the Champions League because of this? They are killing me. So many injustices. “I swear, every year, we were in the same situation. We missed the penalty against Tottenham, Aguero, and after they scored with the hand. Against Liverpool, offsides, no offside. Small details. “We could have won the same as in the Premier League, five in a row… in six years we could have won five Champions Leagues. Stupid mistakes. I don’t know… I am losing my mind, you know? It’s always, ‘Arrghhh’.” “It’s trauma, no? These kinds of games. Uff.” @TheAthleticFC @SamLee

🗣️Aymeric Laporte talks about his time at City. “Nostalgic. So much, so much. So much, so much. “When I see the players going to other teams and being with other people and they have not had that same success, I feel bad. I feel like, ‘Ah… we should’ve been together until the end, no?’ We deserved that.” @TheAthleticFC @SamLee
