The Official FIFA World Cup Thread - QATAR 2022

French defense ain't good but I wouldn't say Morocco is choking...no one had them at this stage battling the defending champs like this

It has to be some crazy pressure. Cause their entire lives could change with just 1 goal

Meanwhile it wouldn’t really matter for France

I’m thinking if Morocco got 1 goal in to tie or even be 1-0 they probably would’ve went on to win

Mfs in this thread complaining about France demographic makeup like cacs. France has always been the most multi-cultural country in Europe. The majority of people in France didn’t speak French till Napoleon and their military has always been made up of Africans, Italians. Irish and Germans. The French military was so Black during WW2 it offended Americans



Cheer for Latin Nazis if you want to. Let’s Go Bleu.

facts but i won't be too upset if messi get it

 

[Premeditated]

Casuals already talking about griezmann being on the team because he’s white

Damn breh I don't know why you hate Griezmann so much but it's been funny to see in this thread.

And yeah Griezmann has been the best french player since the begining of the tournament, without him the team would collapse. He's the main creator on offense, always making the right pass and he's even impressive with his pressing. The stats back it up, I think he's the player who created the most chances in this WC. Everytime he plays with the national team dude becomes superman.

Watch the damn games breh

Griezmann is the one that is setting up the offense, linking up plays and making the right passes. Without him the team would be disjointed as fukk

He’s even tracking back and defending which is something Mbappe isn’t even doing

Griezmann is basically France’s Messi

48 teams in the world cup is one of the worst corrupt decisions fifa ever made

I wonder if it has anything to do with them giving the 2026 TV rights to Fox and taking a big loss.

 

[Givethanks]

Reports of rioting???

 

[Professor Emeritus]

I swear this is the first time I’ve seen anyone use “he did not win the penalty” to discredit a penalty

What do you mean by "discredit the penalty"? I just discrediting the random stat.

This started when someone bragged that Messi had scored a goal almost every game. I pointed out that all but 2 of those goals were scored on penalty kicks that he didn't even win himself and his penalty conversion rate had been below the usual average. So how is it meaningful to brag about how many goals he's scoring in that situation?


Saying anything that could be considered even remotely tampering with the Messi legend certainly riles some feathers on here. Y'all are acting like I made some wild take or said he wasn't good or something. I ONLY said that he'd kicked an obscene # of penalties, 4x more than the second-most guy, and that's the only reason his goal-scoring stats for the cup were high. I'm not trying to discredit his entire legacy goddamn.
