I mean, Messi won MLS Cup last year. What does he need another World Cup for?

[Alex Gruber @agruber6]

An absolute world-class display from Spain. Front to back, just dominant.

As Devin Fitz-Gerald became a top-100 prospect, his mom was diagnosed with brain cancer and told she had ~18 months to live.

Dad is searching for a way to pay for treatment. Mom is stuck at home. And Devin?

This Switzerland-Colombia match had a lot going on for a 0-0 scoreline after 120 minutes.

[Alex Gruber @agruber6]

@schadjoe I don't have a problem with that one. Mostly because it's cool seeing Alessandro Del Piero.

It's the one where he's at the dentist that really bugs me. Mostly for what it's trying (and failing) to sell.

Fifteen minutes of madness and Argentina have pulled a blinder.

Survived. Advanced. Again.

[Alex Gruber @agruber6]

Pfft. I think we all saw this coming. Game on!

[Alex Gruber @agruber6]

That one will count… right? Come on, Egypt!!!

Something oddly poetic about that sequence after Bernardo Silva's header right before the end.

Bernardo getting annoyed at Rodri, with Aymeric Laporte trying to mediate. Typical City, I guess.

[Alex Gruber @agruber6]

Don't know what's sitting worse with me today:

- The Balogun farce, or
- Clayton McCullough pulling Eury Pérez after seven PERFECT INNINGS

Though I was laughing at the Athletics fans yelling "Shame! Shame!" at the Marlins bench while Lake Bachar was imploding in the 8th inning

Red cards are not overturned by political phone calls. They are overturned by rules, evidence and independent bodies. If a U.S. President intervenes with the FIFA President — and a player is suddenly cleared before a World Cup knockout match — the question is unavoidable: Quo vadis, FIFA?

Football must never become a playground for political power. #FIFA #WorldCup #GianniInfantino #DonaldTrump

I'd follow Otto Lopez into a burning building.

Also, can't be understated how impactful Ørjan Nyland was. The penalty save, that tip onto the post from that looping deflection, couple other huge saves. Stellar performance, thoroughly deserved the clean sheet he was deprived of at the death.

[Alex Gruber @agruber6]

Two completely different goals, yet both true trademark Erling Haaland goals.

Towering header—blocking off Gabriel—for the first, thunderbolt from distance from basically a dead stop for the second.

He is the absolute man.

[Alex Gruber @agruber6]

What a freaking football match.

Hats off to Cabo Verde. That’s what this tournament is all about.

Here's Sidny Lopez Cabral on going from £850 a week in the German fifth tier, hanging bin bags for curtains, to the Champions League in just two years and now this: up against Leo Messi today. Loved talking to him, fascinating guy. Give it a read.

[Alex Gruber @agruber6]

SIDNY LOPES CABRAL. Take a bow, son. That is unreal.
