For 2 consecutive World Cups, Qatar 🇶🇦 has been one of the worst teams I have ever seen in World Cup history.
Yet, they have won the past 2 Asian Cups… I am starting to question the integrity of that tournament.
How is it possible?!?!?
@nehaGurung1692 India has way more better players
Are you sure? India FIFA ranking 139th; Uzbekistan is 50th
Also both are part of AFC. Uzbekistan qualified, India didn't.
I only learned about Uzbekistan after Portugal scored 5 goals against them in the FIFA World Cup.
Also wondering me, if Uzbekistan can qualify for the FIFA World Cup, why not India? India has way more better players and a bigger football fanbase than Uzbekistan, so it feels like we should be there too.
Maybe one day we’ll see the Blue Tigers on the World Cup stage 🇮🇳⚽
Bosnia and Herzegovina a country somewhere in Europe with a population of 3 Million is playing in the fifa world cup.
Meanwhile we have a population of about 1.6 billion and still can’t qualify for the tournament 😭
Cricket is ruining other sports in India
I’m just a “dumb” American who doesn’t understand soccer..but tell me again how the United States wouldn’t be able to compete with England in the World Cup who just tied 0-0 with Ghana…
@aaroncutler@cold_skull@Jwiesel13 I don't think it will happen, but ironically among the upsets, this is one which can actually happen knowning how Spain behaved historically and currently.
@aaroncutler@cold_skull@Jwiesel13 Well, in this case, history shows even the strong Spain can struggle bad. Let's not forget in 2010, Paraguay was one goal away to eliminated them in knockout games and they have weird defeats historically. If Austria does the same as Morocco/Switzerland...
@fazegoyboy67@cold_skull@Jwiesel13 If Norway keeps this level, it's even easier to see them in the finals that both England and USA (And the upset rule is respected)
@basterdbat1850@cold_skull@Jwiesel13 Also we have a long history of England screwing for one way or another in key matches: Bad luck, bad play, penalties missed... Since 1966, they are just cursed.
Beating them to win you need 100% of confirmation.
@cold_skull@Jwiesel13 England isn’t good enough for that. Just park the bus like Ghana did all game and take them to penalties, they’ll fuck it up from there like every major tournament.
@DarkAnonymousUK@cold_skull@Jwiesel13 I gave him Belgium. They just suck. And Poch knows the DT.
Netherlands and Portugal... Yep
And for England, considering their luck, is easier to see Morocco or Japan reaching as surprises lol.
@cold_skull@Jwiesel13 It’s absolutely hilarious you think USA has any kind of chance against Belgium, Portugal, Netherlands or England 😂
Let’s alone BEATING ALL FOUR IN A ROW 😂
@Milei2031@cold_skull@Jwiesel13 Forget Argentina
Beating England reaching the World Cup final after decades of real testimonies of karma and bad experiences is a gamble to lose unless you have 100% proof of happening.
@cold_skull@Jwiesel13 There are at least 3 scenarios under this which won't happen at all (And I can bet my left arm and right leg).
Yes, upsets happen, but beating a lot of these XD.
@ClimbingCoachX@CopNight No, it's actually easy.
It's about winning and reaching the most points in each competition. Soccer matches is like that... Scoring goals, win the match.
Ghanaian witch doctor Nana Kwaku Bonsam has vowed to put a curse on Harry Kane for Tuesday’s England vs Ghana
"I am working on Harry Kane. I have shown what I am capable of before so I know what work I must do to stop him. I am not wishing him serious injury. It will be just enough to stop him against my country. I will do my work so that it can help Ghana"
