@Daywhaley I refuse to believe a professional footballer would make that reckless decision at such a crucial stage of the tournament

[Karsa Orlong @kvmtosh]

I’m trying to play devil’s advocate with this .. maybe he panicked? Brain fart?

[kaleena @kaliina__]

I can't find that tweet again. But one thing that exemplifies Nigeria's poor educational system is how rubbish we are at using analogies.

*Feral budget. Because it was prepared by wild animals.

[Abiodun @bin_gbada]

The 2026 World Cup is presently ongoing. Nigeria failed to qualify for the World Cup but the National Sports commission budgeted 6,440,000,000 ($4.6 million) as “Special presidential support group for 2026 World Cup qualifiers”

How???

[Karsa Orlong @kvmtosh]

@FishBowlOfWine Ugh. Where have you been??? 😆

[Karsa Orlong @kvmtosh]

But honestly what was Sørloth thinking? That decision cost them the match

Crazy!

A tourist was tossed in the air by a bull bison in Yellowstone National Park. Pretty wild how quickly things escalated and how much ground the bull bison covers after it finished wallowing in the recreational area.

Great goal from Bellingham

I was chatting with one of my uncles yesterday and this is very similar to the conversation we had lol.

[Osaretin Victor Asemota @asemota]

Nigerians make me laugh sometimes. I thought I had a large family until I came to Ghana. My late mother-in-law had 19 siblings, all of whom were doing well. I found two of them in London by accident. My father-in-law has 10 siblings, all from one mother. My wife has 209 cousins.

Egypt was robbed yesterday. FIFA will pay for their crimes one day. And atp I’m quite convinced Argentina isn’t going to win the World Cup.

Si yo fuese el @RealBetis fichaba a este jugador. Ahora tiene un valor de 5 millones, próximamente valdrá más. Tomen buena nota.

How can you say something like this with a straight face as an American?

[Ellen Carmichael @ellencarmichael]

The most interesting part of the red card saga isn't the ruling. It's how differently Americans and Europeans process the idea that they might have been wronged.

Europeans are fundamentally different from Americans in one particular way: they expect life to be aggravating and at times unfair. It's just a fact of moving through the world. I joke that in Europe, the customer is always wrong. You didn't read the fine print. The only pharmacy in town is closed every other Tuesday for three hours, and even if the times weren't posted, that's still your problem. Too bad if you want the bill, because the waiter's on his union-mandated half-hour smoke break, and you're just going to have to wait.

To quote the great Mark Knopfler: sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug. There's something freeing in that. Things are less in your control, so there's less angst in managing your expectations.

In America, things couldn't be more different. We simply can't accept a wrong left unrighted.

The flight attendant sneezed handing you a drink on your one-hour flight? 15,000 frequent flyer miles. Didn't like your appetizer? A replacement is on the way, and the whole course comes off the bill. There's a reason our interstates are lined with trial lawyer billboards.

Europeans have turned complaining into a continental pastime with no expectation that the universe owes them a remedy for their grief. You gripe about the train being late, your friends nod solemnly and everyone goes back to their apéro. In America, we launch a full-blown investigation of the train system, sue the government (and its contractors) that allowed for the tardiness and hold a Congressional hearing on the state of national infrastructure.

So to an objective observer, the red card shouldn't have happened, and VAR was a travesty. To Americans, our star player shouldn't be unfairly banned from a match we couldn't afford to lose for a card he so obviously didn't deserve.

Who cares that FIFA used a little-used reversal to fix it. Who cares that other people are mad about it. We. Were. Wronged. It was unjust. It must be corrected. We would accept nothing less.

Europeans waxing poetic about the sanctity of the game are, of course, talking about a governing body whose last tournament host was decided via confirmed cash bribes — one that imposed dress codes on women, shrugged off widespread allegations of modern slavery and reconfigured the entire tournament calendar to suit the host country. Which is exactly the point. If you've made peace with all of that, at least enough to watch the tournament four years later, a probationary suspension isn't actually a scandal.

Maybe that's the real divide. Over millennia, Europeans have made peace with being the bug. Americans have never once considered it, and apparently, we're not about to start now.

"Messi's hand of god"

[Casanino @casanin0]

@Malachians Messi’s hand of god is literally celebrated. FIFA’s always been corrupt. Trump is claiming credit for something he had nothing to do with as usual. Why wouldn’t we play Flo? Also FIFA now looking into England’s red. You gonna carry the same outrage when that’s overturned?

[Karsa Orlong @kvmtosh]

A1 use of this meme 😂

[Yannick Bolasie @YannickBolasie]

All I’ll say is if this was AFCON and they let a man play after he got a red card, the nonsense being said would be crazy

[Karsa Orlong @kvmtosh]

Lmfao this is the textbook definition of corruption

[Clash Report @clashreport]

Trump on Balogun:

Balogun is our best player. He got a red card. I didn't know what that meant, but then I heard that it means you cannot play in the next game.

That's very unfair. How do you penalize him for a game that hasn't been played yet?

I asked for a review by FIFA.

[Karsa Orlong @kvmtosh]

Mad Man 😂
