No entiendo el hate descomunal que recibió Paraguay por parte de españoles, mexicanos y más. Sabíamos nuestras limitaciones y jugamos de acuerdo a eso, todos esperaban goleadas como resultados y no, la albirroja aguantó con lo que tenía. Ndaipori jogo bonito pero nunca se achicó
I cannot fathom the hate Paraguay is getting. Even if they are irritating and can be floppers and divers.
They beat Germany. They didn't let France, the best attack in the world, score a goal besides questionable pk.
France has 70 million people, tons of academies, tons of money, a recruiting pipeline from African countries that were once French colonies, the Ballon D'or winner, one of the best players in the world in Mbappe, and a team depth that basically only 1 other team can rival.
Yet people are clapping seals for them and ripping on how Paraguay played? A country of 7 million people, a country ranked like 100 in terms of GDP and wealth, ranked 41st in the world via FIFA rankings, and zero stars.
I think only Almiron and Encisco played in the EPL at some point lol. Yet people expect them to go toe to toe with the best team in the world? "But but but anti-football!" They're trying to win. Only people who have never played the game would have the gameplan to play an open game against the best attacking team in the world. Genius.
Well done Paraguay. You guys may have some cheap tactics too, but that's how you take it to the tournament favorites.
Terrible look for France tbh.
