@SoB_Evan Curious about where the $7.6M number comes from. I see Brazilian tweets talking about Corinthians owing the Union 7.6M Reais (about 1.5M dollars) on the Martinez deal.
Seems strange to see the same exact number being quoted in both dollars and reais.
@stuholden@FOXSports You seem likable, and I wish you all the best. But today we witnessed the worst performance in a Final ever by Argentina. It’s ok to call them out on it. In fact, the growth of the sport in this country depends on disgraceful performances like that one being called out.
3 - Sur les 900 matches disputés à la Coupe du Monde sur la période d'analyse d'Opta (depuis 1966), seules trois équipes n'ont tenté aucun tir lors du temps réglementaire :
🇨🇷 Costa Rica en 1990 contre le Brésil 🇧🇷
🇨🇷 Costa Rica en 2022 contre l'Espagne 🇪🇸
🇦🇷 Argentine en 2026 contre l'Espagne 🇪🇸
Petit-Poucet.
@Colo_Skywalker@Homibwoy1 Pelé won 3 world cups before the age of 30. He stopped playing then bc he had nothing more to prove. Messi is 39 and still trying to get number 2. There’s just no comparison.
@IanDarke Yeah, it’s a weird rule. Basically if the ref makes a mistake, instead of just correcting the mistake, they punish the other team instead.
Maybe next when they disallow a goal for one team, they’ll start awarding it to the opposing team haha
🚨 Argentina in their last 13 matches:
🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia: Penalty awarded
🇲🇽 Mexico: —
🇵🇱 Poland: Penalty awarded
🇦🇺 Australia: —
🇳🇱 Netherlands: Penalty awarded, red card avoided, and opponent sent off
🇭🇷 Croatia: Penalty awarded
🇫🇷 France: Penalty awarded and an irregular goal
🇩🇿 Algeria: Messi spared a red card
🇦🇹 Austria: Penalty awarded
🇯🇴 Jordan: Penalty awarded
🇨🇻 Cape Verde: Irregular goal
🇪🇬 Egypt: Penalty awarded, opponent's goal disallowed, offside goal allowed, and penalty not awarded to the opponent
🇨🇭 Switzerland: Opponent sent off
Argentina keep getting favorable call after favorable call. 🇦🇷🤑
@PfalzCity@ADrezDark@MotivacionesF That was my thought as well. But on second thought, if the main concern is that legit-looking goals are getting called offsides, this would solve that. And the controversy would shift to players who appear to be offside in some cases actually onside. This seems like a good trade
