🚨🎙️ Roy Keane on Messi’s career ending tackle overlooked by VAR and the referee ;
🗣️”After the match yesterday all you see is Messi’s praises everywhere, the hype, the headlines, the hat-trick talk. Yeah, maybe he deserves some of it — the lad can still play.
But no one wants to say the truth. No one wants to address what went wrong yesterday.
That challenge was an absolute disgrace. Late, studs up, straight into the Achilles — career-ending territory. On any other player, anywhere else, it’s a straight red card and you’re marching off before half-time. But not when it’s Messi.
The referee bottles it, VAR takes a quick look and says ‘nah, carry on lad.’ Give me a break!
This is the World Cup, the biggest stage in the game. This is where the rules are supposed to mean something. Not bent, not softened, not ignored because of the name on the back of the jersey. Players have been sent off for half as much in this tournament. Where’s the consistency? Do the laws of the game suddenly not apply when it’s Lionel Messi?
This is why the game’s gone soft. Big names get protected, the rest get crucified. Absolute joke of officiating on the greatest stage of all.”
📺 Telemundo TV commentator: "We are one of the only networks in the world to NOT show ads during the World Cup cooling breaks."
"We prefer the old school way. We should be able to see what the players do. We show fans, people enjoying, not the corporate direction of football."
Telemundo might single handily save this World Cup from FOX.
Telemundo is showing Canada’s opening ceremony while FOX still refuses to show the opening ceremony.
FOX didn’t show Mexico’s opening ceremony and now they aren’t showing Canada’s opening ceremony.
90,000 show up to watch a soccer match on a Tuesday night. Not in LA, San Fran or New York. Auburn.. Auburn, Alabama. Right in the heart of the Deep South.
Gotta kill the narrative that Americans don’t care about the sport.
I love Americans. We were about to walk an hour to the stadium in the rain to save on an Uber, and the receptionist at the hotel we were parked in front of decided to drive us there.🙏

Brian Schwake is better then Matt Turner currently. Arguably has been the best GK in MLS this season.
Should be in serious contention to go to the World Cup with the USMNT.
