Internationals March (Euro Qualifiers)

Poor lady, I’m sure it did not go the way it was all intended.

Argentina - Panama do they actually ever play decent opposition apart from world cups? Didn’t Messi score a hattrick against these a few years ago? Says enough when you see 5 free kicks on the edge of the box all given within 40 minutes.

The passion the players and fans have for their country is unrivaled, I have never seen anything like it. This would never be possible in the cynical western world. I don’t know if that is good or bad mind because I’m cynical myself as a westerner.

Actually yes, we are one of the few Nations that usually plays power houses on their own turf more than often and besides Brasil very few come down here.

The thing is that immediately prior to the WC there was no need to risk players or even loose the record in an unnecessary way, not that many Power Houses would have want to face us too...regarding these two matches, they are only focused on entertaining and celebrations, in any case Panama didn't clearly took it that way, they didn't receive the memo that this was a way beyond friendly match it seems, they really wanted to at least grasp a tie.

BTW did you want to say third world? southern hemisphere? because Argieland is a s western as it can be, also Argies not being cynical? that was funny man, sadly, I wish we weren't
 
Taylor is starting. What the feck do people see in this broke man's Donny van de Beek/ Davy Klaassen. Wieffer is 10 times better and he's not good enough either. Hell even Clasie would've been better.
 
Surely a decent chance for the Swedes to turn over Belgium tonight

Hopefully... But we've been crap lately in competitive football... We lost 3 of our last 4 WC qualifiers (which cost us a place in the WC)... And we lost 4 of 6 in the NL -2 of them to f***g Norway-, which got us relegated to league C (after getting relegated from A to B in the previous edition).

Yeah just thinking Isaak on form, Kulu solid, Forsberg having a good season.

And more importantly Belgium were a shambles at the WC and I'm not convinced they dont all hate eachother.
