Look at what's happened to me, I can't believe it myself....

2/2 … And 2: those who claim US dominated sports are better, more skilful and football would be dominated by US at will if they only cared

[Jeff Harbourne @JeffHar73]

Two strong World Cup themes emerging from US:

1. those who have no interest or understanding of a sport and its rules, and the implications of the shameless @FIFAcom and @FIFANTINO intervention using the Balogun decision for clout 1/2

[Scott McKay @TheHayride]

The reason soccer is "the world's most popular sport" is that it's the cheapest one.

All you need is a ball. That burned out car over there is one goal and that dumpster over there is the other.

You don't need any equipment. You don't even need shoes. Kids with no hands can play soccer.

Most of the best players seem to be from Third World countries where they live in mudhuts and wear Atlanta Falcons Super Bowl Champions shirts every day.

Stop talking to me about what a beautiful, sophisticated game it is. It isn't. Yes, there are plays. There are plays in every sport. But football, basketball and baseball are far, far more sophisticated and require greater skill and athleticism than soccer, and you people sound like idiots trying to claim otherwise.

In honour of today’s Brazil v Norway game, here’s my favourite Brazil geography fact.

The Amazon river is so massive that no bridge crosses it in the whole of Brazil. You would need to travel from the sea to the foothills of the Andes in Peru before finding a bridge to cross it.

When Sepp Blatter is taking to social media to call out corruption on your watch, it’s probably time to accept that the game’s up.

This is like Fred West critiquing your paving technique.

[Jeff Harbourne @JeffHar73]

@JohnDugganSport Completely agree John - shameless corruption

[Jeff Harbourne @JeffHar73]

Not a surprise when @FIFAcom @FIFANTINO are openly and blatantly corrupt.

BREAKING @TheAthleticFC

Folarin Balogun will be available to play the USMNT’s round of 16 match against Belgium with his one-game red-card ban suspended. Extraordinary development.

Best stat of the World Cup so far:

There are 7 sets of brothers in the World Cup, and only 3 of them play for the same country.

The @BostonGlobe published a full page thank you letter to the Tartan Army in this mornings paper. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[Jeff Harbourne @JeffHar73]

@DaytrippingRed Madness - never seen that before

[Jeff Harbourne @JeffHar73]

First hand account of the gougers that are @FIFAcom @FIFAWorldCup - fans don’t deserve this but they don’t care about the fans

Shameless, corrupt and pure greed

[PASTA Mick @PASTA_Mick]

I've been to hundreds, maybe thousands, of football matches in my life. @FWC26Boston - that was the worst match day experience I have ever had, by an absolute mile. Simply not capable of hosting this type of event that we've been ripped off to attend.

[Jeff Harbourne @JeffHar73]

About to watch the World Cup in the pub when a fella said to me ‘I bet you can’t name 3 Qatar players’

I replied - George Harrison, Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton

Reminder that FIFA president Gianni Infantino was investigated for multiple ethics violations within months of taking office in 2016. The charges went away when he, in effect, closed down the unit investigating him. 1/3

[Jeff Harbourne @JeffHar73]

In a race to the bottom, the winner by a distance.

[Glenn Tunes @glenn_tunes]

WORST FIFA PRESIDENT EVER 🖐️

[Jeff Harbourne @JeffHar73]

I hadn’t seen this lad play before today. I thought he was incredible when he came on.

[john @JohnMac___]

Osmand and iheanacho will get all the praise, but this man was absolutely exceptional off the bench and played his part. He came on and changed the game. An absolute brilliant footballer

[ConfessionsPete @ConfessionsPete]

An old clip of Dennis Waterman singing the best song ever written live on RTE's Late Late Show has emerged on social media recently...enjoy!
