@masschiara @FabrizioRomano I agree that was a dodgy decision from the ref.
The Paraguay keeper was unreal.
Just quite sad Germany are out like a France Germany round of 16 would have been unreal

@aj__cfc @FabrizioRomano In this case I genuinely believe poor ref decision… and then obviously Paraguay was better at the shootouts

🚨🚨🇵🇾 OFFICIAL: PARAGUAY BEAT GERMANY AND QUALIFY TO WORLD CUP ROUND 16!
HISTORICAL.

@galindafc At this point i believe that Germany sold their soul to the devil for that 2014 win 😭
English
@outroparadiise I can't believe it. Like i remember 2014 where they destroyed everyone and now they are a shadow of that former self 😭
English
@MusialaEra I am actually gutted and I am not even German. What has happened to Germany this is not the team i remember in my childhood :(
English
@Defiantly_Free Definitely share it ! Yes they have a habit of doing that 😭 it is freaking disgusting 🤢😭
We love you guys too ! Not Boston for the most part though they are excluded 😆
If you see English people being bitter it is genuinely because we hate people tarnishing us with lies 😭
English
Well that's good about the self-policing. And public what?! 😂🤣 Oh my. You two (English and Scots) are making this so incredibly entertaining. Can we please do this party every year before the 4th of July? 😂 And yeah the speech police dude was just 1 person. Americans know that jerk doesn't represent Brits. But seeing that video, did piss us off. 😂
And bitter. Yeah we picked up on the jealousy/rivalry between you 2 for our American attention. 🤣😉 The Boston bar should not have closed and that was in poor taste. Americans aren't really "into" soccer. We love football...and I mean American football. So this has been an experience for us. Not to mention Americans aren't used to large numbers of Scots and English in our towns....well, modern day. 🤣😂 Watching it all on social media has been interesting.
I have seen some happy singing videos of Scots and happy singing videos of English. It makes me happy as an American. I even posted about it. I'll have to share that post with you.
Again 🇺🇲❤️🏴🏴.

British are English, Scottish, Welsh & Northern Irish. I'm an American and I know this. Many Americans know this. We love our English and Scottish visitors! However I think I can explain what's going on in the American mind lol. British = English = Redcoats. Automatically because 1776. Think of the Patriot movie, British accents for redcoats. No Scottish accents for redcoats when we think of it. Scottish = bagpipes and kilts. We don't automatically or initially associate Redcoats with Scottish. So while yes, Scots are British, we assign British English with Redcoats. A lot of Scots-Irish were Patriots in the American Revolution as well. And yes Scots fought on the Loyalist side. But England gets heavily connected to British Redcoats. I'm explaining the American mind doing a shortcut. It's just a short hand way I guess our brains are dealing with it. 😂 The imagery of Scots in kilts contradicts our imagery of British Redcoats with English accents so amazingly, the English are being assigned that role specifically. Because that is technically historically accurate. So while yes we KNOW Scots are British too, 250 years of British Redcoats being specifically associated very strongly with the English and there ya go. So in a way it's just lazy shorthand and the Scots made us laugh with orange traffic cones. 😂 And they all went to Boston. You're going to have very strong patriotic ties in Boston 250 years later! Right before our 250th.

Astounded at how many Americans think ‘the British’ are just English

Andy Burnham is expected to use his first major leadership speech to unveil his vision for Britain, including plans for a "No. 10" in the North.
The Labour leadership frontrunner will outline how he wants to reshape government, promising to shift more decision-making powers from Whitehall to local communities.

@petermaclaren1 @DeOne___ Exactly this ! The UK is fucked now unfortunately
English
@DeOne___ When industry disappeared under Thatcher they let communities suffer with deprivation and want to cut welfare to these areas while dumping the asylum seekers into these areas causing resentment.
English
I’ve been highly suspicious of Andy Burnham for years. He seems to have a chip on his shoulder about the North-South divide.
Why should London (that is propping up this country MASSIVELY) funnel wealth to the north that isn’t doing anything for itself
English
@Defiantly_Free But i can highlight that our fans can be super bitter as you may have noticed after Boston
English
@Defiantly_Free It is just annoying when the media shows our past but never what the Scots are like with the habit of public urination and the hooligans 😭
The guy in the stadium did it to get attention and engagements as he is a youtuber and a melt
English
@Defiantly_Free Go for it 😂😭
I have a feeling the reputation and a small amount of fans being a bit dickish has played a part 😭
Speaking to a lot of groups of Bostonians they have said that Scots told them to be wary of us. I think that played a part too !
English
Glad you know what I mean lol. They shouldn't have closed the bar, that wasn't right. We welcome all our guests. I'm happy Dallas and NY have been great. Yeah things being right before the 250th lol. But do you want my honest American thoughts about what I think happened? Well an observation. Let me know! 😂

@BeormasSpam People like this who live in this land of delusion that after every England game we leave the place looking like 80's Beirut need to grow up.
English
@TouchlineX @SamiMokbel_BBC As much as I hate to say it we need him and Anderson for every game going forward now as they give us a chance of winning this thing !
