The World Cup is making everyone realize that our beef is with our world leaders, not each other.

[Vfynn_🥷🏼 𐙚 @Vfynn_]

🚨🗣️NEW: Zlatan Ibrahimović on FIFA’s new mouth-covering red card rule: as Almiron was given a red card for covering his mouth in the game between Paraguay and Turkey

“I have seen football at its highest level, the real football. Not this watered-down version they are serving us now. What happened with Almirón? A straight red card for covering his mouth? This is not football anymore. This is a circus run by bureaucrats in suits who have never felt the fire of the pitch.”

“Covering your mouth is now a red card? What is this, Big Brother on the field? FIFA wants to read lips, punish thoughts before they even become words. Next they will put muzzles on players like dogs. Players cannot even talk, cannot even breathe passion without some VAR robot or referee deciding your emotions are illegal. This is dystopian. Football is dying.”

“This rule was born because some players cry every week. One incident in the Champions League and suddenly the whole world must change. But elbow a man, break his leg, or spit — sometimes you get a yellow and a pat on the back. Two-tier football. Protect the protected, punish the rest. I have played in every league and I have seen it.”

On the softness of the modern game:
“Maradona would be sent off in the tunnel. Roy Keane? He would laugh at the referee and walk off with a smile while the stands burn. Pepe would have collected five reds before half-time. Today? Players are becoming actors, not warriors. They fall, they cry, they hide behind rules. Where is the masculinity? Where is the character? Football is not ballet. It is war. And they are turning it into a polite conversation with red cards as punctuation.”

“I, Zlatan, have scored goals that made stadiums shake and said things that made opponents tremble — without hiding. This generation is being raised soft. If you cannot handle words on the pitch, how will you handle life? FIFA is not protecting football. They are burying it. And one day, the real fans will rise and say: enough. Bring back the game.”

@CNC3TV If this went on for years why is the public only now hearing about it?

In case you didn’t watch the World Cup today (matchday 4)

>Germany beat Curaçao 7-1… like they did to Brazil in 2014

>Netherlands drew Japan 2-2. Match of the tournament so far

>Côte d’Ivoire beat Ecuador 1-0 on a 90+1’ winner from Diallo

>Sweden pounded Tunisia 5-1. 2 golazos from Ayari

>Curaçao’s equalizer vs Germany at 1-1 was absolute scenes. One of the best moments of the WC so far

>Curaçao became the smallest nation to ever play in a World Cup match

>Kai Havertz scored his 4th & 5th career World Cup goal. Truly a big-game player

>Netherlands Japan was quite in the 1st half. Netherlands went up in the 64’ but never count out Japan. They equalized off a corner in the 89’

>Japan fans stayed late after their game to clean up garbage in the stadium

>Japan’s coach went viral for communicating tactics to his team by writing numbers on giant whiteboards and holding them up on the touch line

>Netherlands still haven’t lost a World Cup match in 90 minutes since 2006 after their 2-2 draw with Japan

>Scotland fans marched to Fenway Park and the Tartan Army took over the Boston Red Sox baseball game

>Spain’s coach announced Lamine Yamal is fit and ready to play in their first game

>Dutch fans took over the streets of Dallas Texas today before their match vs Japan

>Fans noticed players have found a loophole for FIFA’s new 5 second throw in rule: The time starts when you have the ball in your hand… players just wouldn’t pick the ball up until they were ready to throw

> Portugal players received a Diogo Jota bracelet with the names of every player on the team

>Somali referee Omar Artan will be paid for his World Cup match assignments by FIFA despite being denied entry to the US and the border

>Zlatan Ibrahimovic took a night off from covering the World Cup with FOX to attend the UFC event at the White House while Sweden was playing

>The Uruguayan national team's plane was not allowed to head to go to the due to administrative issues, even though they play tomorrow. The team eventually arrived in America late Sunday night less that 24 hours before kick off

>The story of the Curaçao coach was trending online: He led them to the WC, left the team to be with his daughter in the Netherlands who was fighting cancer, she got better & his replacement coach quit so he could return to the team. Today he became the oldest World Cup coach in history.

>Let me know if I missed anything

I’ll post daily recaps all World Cup long, follow me pookie :)

[Robert @Eintrachtrob]

The World Cup is completely unwatchable with the FIFA ad breaks designed as "hydration breaks".

Infantino has to be removed as FIFA president.

It's a total farce.

[Rob Pizzola @robpizzola]

These hydration breaks are a joke. We are in North America, not the Sahara. Soccer has been played in heat since the sport existed and nobody needed a TV timeout to survive it. Let's call it out for what it is... An opportunity to add even more commercials to sports.

[Lazzyyyyyy @em_Lazzy]

FIFA rejecting Haiti’s jersey’s for being “too political” while allowing Israel to play, & the US to host World Cup (while denying visas, restricting entrance, banning Iranian players from staying in country) is a selective, targeted invocation of their “neutrality” policies.

[Kew-che-la @isadougla]

What if they're American citizens 😐

[The Touchline | 𝐓 @TouchlineX]

🚨🇺🇸 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Influencers who record and post content during the World Cup will need to have a journalist visa.

Otherwise, they will be deported.

With the World Cup about to kick off, who are you backing to win the tournament?

[Aunty Osmosis @cristapatricia]

They gentrified cockset 😭

[Jeniece @jeniece_s]

I am so DISGUSTED, REPULSED and utterly DISAPPOINTED and the racism that this country has been subjected to as of late

It has gotten worse and on full display and the worst part isn’t even that office holders do not condemn it but they go as far as encouraging it

[Kew-che-la @isadougla]

@PennyKam868 Oh they will, terribly

[The-Rick 🇪🇸🕸️ @dherrick_]

How long this SOE going to go on for???

The government:

[CNC3TV @CNC3TV]

As a matter of constitutional principle, the burden rests on the State to justify why it must continue a State of Emergency (SoE), since an SoE is not intended to become the normal framework of governance, Independent Senator Anthony Vieira says.

[publicity farmer @msmike772]

The accusation of racism is quite interesting & equally telling.

Because, long story short, this confirms that the UNC, at the very least, sees itself as a party for people of one ethnicity. Which is terrible.

Also, it is documented that nurses protested in 2020 & 2021. So…
