SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2025-2026

Was that the first scoreless match? Not one you'd expect it from.

I didn't catch the game though. Was it just a matter of bus parking and Spain not being able to get anything through?

 

I did too but..

 

Both. Spain were poor.

 

Yamal charlo couldn't muster a single goal for that tiny island ?

 

Spain looked very stale, the dynamism of the Williams-Yamal partnership is what won them the euros but neither are in the beat form or shape going into the tournament. They looked more like Enrique's Spain from four years ago.

 

Obviously they are going to be disappointed with start, but still better than losing. Will have to see how they look in the next one if it was an aberration.

 

I don't know anything about this Uruguayan squad. Looks like they don't have the likes of a Suarez, Forlan or Cavani type quality player unless i missed someone.

 

They should beat Saudi if they are any good, looks like they are short up front this time around, I do t think Darwin Nunez is going to be winning the golden boot this year

 

Nunez is better than that crap house Wirtz

 

Banging a bunch in against against the Saudis is a good starting ground to build a nice goal tally. Miroslav Klose started off the 2002 Cup with a hat trick against that sorry lot.

 

Wait. I didn't even realize the game started. 66 minutes in and Saudi up 1-0.

 

For tomorrow France starts off with Senegal, same as in 02. At the time they were the reigning world and European champions. Naturally they were not just a favorite to win that game, but the whole thing. They ended up bottom of the group and didn't manage a single goal.

 

1-1

 

Saudi beat Argentina last time out. Also scored one of the greatest goals I've ever seen scored live.

 

So far all of the "upsets" have resulted in draws unless you count Australia-Turkey.

 

How much did they pay you for that post?

 

Ha! Those were the days though. I genuinely loved that goal. I had no politics then. I still remember it for what it was after all these years.













7,000 riyals if you must know.....

 

I don't. Socceroos can play a bit.

 

Nothing against New Zealand but really hope Iran win this.

 

It must be awkward as fuck to be on that team right now. I'm sure the supporters don't exactly feel comfortable either.

 

Couple of half-chances for Iran then the Kiwis score with a really nice finish.

 

Iranian player went down a bit easy, Mexican ref didn't award anything.

I know they wouldn't get the assignment but if was an Israeli or American ref i would send ever even slightly close decision to VAR.

 

1-1

It was coming. New Zealand just too open at the back.

 

Iran's offense is destroyed. Totally destroyed. They've nothing left.











1-1

 

Iran put one in in first half stoppage time but well of side.

 

2-1 New Zealand. Iran almost answer right after.

Luckily for the kiwis their goalkeeper has a better reaction time than his haircut.

 

Iran equalize. Free header in the box. One of those chances you have to bury and he did.

 

Iran really pushing. Reacted and followed up better to both goals but still 20 minutes to go.

 

Triumph The Insult Comic Dog: Why did Eminem call you a 36 year-old, baldheaded fag??

Moby (laughs uncomfortably): Uh, I don't know.

Triumph The Insult Comic Dog: You're only 35, right??
