🚨 BREAKING: Jamie Carragher blasts FIFA and Canada over Thomas Partey visa controversy
"This is an absolute disgrace from a tournament planning point of view. You spend years building towards a World Cup, qualifying, preparing squads, getting everything right — and then something like this happens days before kickoff. It’s just not acceptable at this level of football."
"If Thomas Partey is part of Ghana’s plans and has been cleared to be in the squad, then how does it get to a point where a visa issue knocks him out of the opening game against Panama? That’s not football, that’s administration failure."
"I don’t care who is responsible — FIFA, Canada, immigration — someone has to take accountability. You cannot tell fans to invest emotionally in a tournament and then allow situations where key players are missing because paperwork wasn’t sorted in time."
"At the very least, these issues should be resolved weeks before the first match. It’s unfair on the player, it’s unfair on Ghana, and it damages the integrity of the competition. This is exactly the kind of chaos that should never happen at a World Cup."

I was saying this to a friend today. We are all laughing at Fox , but it’s an easy mistake to make with finals pressure on you, especially after playing badly and blowing a 29 point lead
If you’ve ever played competitive sports before you’d understand.
Q: "You just hit the game-winning shot in an NBA Finals game in front of your home crowd. How does that feel?"
OG Anunoby: "Uh, it feels cool. I mean, everyone's pretty excited. I'm excited too"
