- Ad breaks disguised as hydration breaks.
- Players waiting for music to stop to restart match.
- Atrocious/suspicious officiating.
- Visa’s preventing fans entry into the US.
- Overpriced tickets/travel.
- Not allowing interviews in Spanish.
An embarrassment of a World Cup.
I have never watched so many ads in my life during a football match.
Players used to sing national anthems, shake hands and it was kick off time.
Now it’s ads after the national anthem.
Ads during first cooling break.
Ads during HT.
Ads during second cooling
Ads at FT.
Cómo van a esperar que se cumpla el tiempo exacto para volver a jugar el partido. No tiene sentido.
No dimensionamos lo grave que es este Cooling Break, con todas sus publicidades. Quieren hacer de este deporte como la NFL. Están arruinando todo.
🚨JUST IN: Jurgen Klopp on cooling breaks:
"Football is being held hostage by executives in air-conditioned offices. These so-called 'cooling breaks' were sold to us as a shield for the players' well-being. It's nothing more than a gilded cage built for sponsors."

The promise of colonialism has always been the same: surrender your dignity, abandon your dead, betray your people, and in return we’ll let you participate in your own subjugation. What an offer.
In 2010, US officials warned that South Africa’s World Cup would be unsafe because of crime and theft, suggesting tourists would stay away out of fear.
16 years later, the World Cup is in their own backyard and England’s team has been robbed in America before their first game.
The introduction of cooling breaks, apart from being a capitalist trick to cram more ads down our eyeballs, fundamentally alters the game by killing any positive momentum. An artificial lifeline that bails out struggling teams & restores balance. It'll become clear during this WC
there’s something so bittersweet about supporting the next closest country to palestine bc we cant qualify and most of our players were killed by the idf. free palestine and god bless bosnia
Te odio, Cooling Break. Odio que cortes el partido a los 22 minutos, odio que pares todo para los cortes comerciales, odio tus publicidades, odio tu pausa de hidratación que no sirve para nada. Odio que creas que esto es la NFL. Odio toda tu existencia. Te odio, Cooling Break.
