@UtdMaI fkn idiot

Explain to me how Cape Verde qualified in 2nd place without winning a single match.

@ThaRealTMK Yep

@sixringsofsteeI We’ve got 4 rings in the last 11 years and 7 all time so that photo means nothing to me

@kylejdolan7 ok

Now this is some Knicks news I can get behind

what is dembele on

@anthonyVslater shut up you haven’t earned a thing yet

Yaxel Lendeborg on his early conversations with Steve Kerr: “He doesn’t normally play rookies as much. He has a history of that. But the way the team is looking right now, I’m going to have a really good chance to play, maybe even start.”

🚨🇯🇵 Hajime Moriyasu on facing Brazil: 🗣️"From the moment our match against Sweden ended, our attention shifted completely to Brazil. We know the quality they possess. They're one of the greatest football nations in history, with world-class players capable of deciding a match in seconds. We have nothing but respect for them. But Japan is no longer a team that simply participates, we compete. We didn't come this far to admire Brazil or exchange shirts. We're going there to go toe-to-toe with them and fight for a place in the next round. We believe in our football, our discipline, and our unity. If we perform at our best, we know we can beat anyone. Our objective is clear: we're going there to win. At the end of the day, football is unpredictable. Whatever the result may be, we'll accept it with dignity. But one thing is certain, we'll leave everything on that pitch, and Brazil will know they've been in a battle with Japan."

WE WANT BRAZIL 🇯🇵🇯🇵

@ryanhammer09 BRING IT ON Brazil Come on my BLUE SAMURAI 🇯🇵

It is wild that Japan is one of the 4 2nd place teams that has to play a 1st place team in R32… But my GOD Brazil vs Japan will be THE game of the round of 32 🇧🇷🇯🇵🍿

@nikotaughtyou And he’s the most immature guy in the entire draft class

Only negative on that dude is his age, if you got any argument outside of that I’m not sure you watched him play.

Some terrible takes coming from Warriors Twitter regarding Yaxel, can definitely tell who watched college hoops and didn’t.

@CosmicMatt92 that’s what happens when you top your group simple

Bit of a predicament for the Socceroos now. Popa throwing away that game against the USA is going to come back to bite us. As it stands, we are facing Iran in the R32 if we manage to avoid defeat against Paraguay. If we do lose though we will be facing Germany instead. But, the reality is that we'll be facing Belgium instead of Iran if we finish 2nd because the likelihood of Belgium beating NZ by more goals than Iran beat Egypt is very high Either way, I think it's safe to say either Germany or Belgium await us in the R32. With Argentina in the R16 likely if we somehow beat Belgium. Meanwhile USA get an absolute gift of a run all the way to the semis. Popa has literally thrown away any chance of us going somewhat deep in this tournament with that starting 11 vs USA. Sackable offence.

@Yaxel_Lendeborg you better not talk more shit about Steph

DUB NATIONNNNNNNNN💙💙💙💙💙💙

I love cats

@SleeperHQ hate this kid, hate that we drafted him

-10,000 fans, -20% team chemistry 😭

¡MESSI, HAALAND Y MBAPPÉ EL DÍA DE HOY! 💀

@UnderdogNBA @ShamsCharania I need to know what these picks are

Trade summary, per @ShamsCharania : Heat get - Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bobby Portis Bucks get - Tyler Herro, Kel'el Ware, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kasparas Jakucionis, 3 first-round picks, 1 pick swap, 1 second-round pick

🚨Japan head coach Hajime Moriyasu was asked why many countries still view Japan as underdogs and how that perception has motivated his team after their dominant 4–0 victory over Tunisia. 🎙️ Reporter: “Coach Moriyasu, despite Japan’s recent performances, many people still consider your team underdogs. Why do you think that is, and has it motivated your players during this World Cup?” 🗣️ Hajime Moriyasu: “I understand why some people still see Japan that way because football has traditionally been dominated by nations with long histories of winning major tournaments. “We respect those countries and everything they have achieved, but we don’t focus too much on labels like ‘underdogs’ or ‘favourites.’ “If people underestimate us, that is their choice. For us, it becomes extra motivation. “Our players work incredibly hard every day, and they are proud to represent Japan. They want to show the world that Japanese football belongs at the highest level. “What has driven this team throughout the tournament is not proving people wrong—it is proving ourselves right. “We know our quality. We trust our preparation, our style of play, and the values that define us as a team. “The players have shown great discipline, courage, and humility. They fight for each other in every moment, and that unity is our greatest strength. “A 4–0 victory does not change our mentality. We remain humble, we continue to improve, and we keep our focus on the next challenge. “If other teams still see us as underdogs, that is fine. We will continue to let our football do the talking. {@fifaworldcup_ar }

@UTDKarra Kubo as well

Do you know how crazy it is that Japan are without Minamino, Mitoma and Endo, yet they’re still playing like a team with no injuries at all? 😭

I love the World Cup.
