John Terry on Argentina ahead of their 2026 FIFA World Cup semi-final against England.
🗣️ “I’m not buying the hype. Without Lionel Messi, this Argentina team is ordinary. Strip away the reputation and you’re looking at a side that doesn’t frighten anyone.”
“I honestly don’t think they stand a chance against England. Not one. England are faster, stronger, more athletic and have far more quality across the pitch.”
“People keep pretending this is still the Argentina that conquered the world. It isn’t. That team is gone. This one lives off old memories and a famous shirt.”
“Every time I watch them now, I ask myself where the elite level is. I don’t see dominance, I don’t see personality, and I certainly don’t see a team capable of intimidating top opposition. If that��s the best Argentina can offer without Messi, then England should have no excuses whatsoever.”
“If England play with any intensity at all, Argentina will spend the entire game chasing the ball. I don’t see them matching England physically or tactically for 90 minutes.”
“For me, this shouldn’t even be a close contest. England should expose them. If England fail to beat this Argentina side, it’ll be because they underperformed not because Argentina were exceptional.”
🚨 Jürgen Klopp on Croatia–Portugal late drama:
“I’m really struggling to understand what we just witnessed. Croatia score in the final minute — a moment of pure emotion — and it’s taken away. I honestly don’t see why that goal doesn’t stand.
When decisions are this big, they must be clear. This one just doesn’t feel right. It feels like something has been taken from the players, the fans, the game itself.
FIFA and the referees have to do better. I really feel for Croatia — they deserved that moment.” #PORCRO
When black players who play for European teams when they score the European loved them when they missed the goal then they are just another black man. They abused them. They call him every racist language in the world.. and this happened on all the European teams, including France, Spain, the British, the Dutch, Belgium, Sweden, Norway. We should the same thing planned out in the FIFA 2026 World Cup.
