When you can finally stop pretending to hate the GOAT

I don’t remember seeing these articles when France went straight down the tunnel after collecting their medals in 2022.

In victory he posts the group pic, in defeat he posts himself alone 🫡

Still find it crazy that Di Maria, Xavi and Iniesta carried Messi to another World Cup final and no one is talking about it

I am personally no longer partaking in these debates, I understand that after a while your brain cannot compute how a 39 year old footballer is playing the way he’s playing, I get it, you have to throw your logic out and make conspiracy theories to be sane.

I understand it.

Landon Donovan says America is missing soccer talent because kids can’t afford to play.

“Only 2% of kids playing organized soccer in America came from households that made less than $50,000.”

“If you don’t make $50,000, your kid cannot play organized soccer.”

“Think about how many kids you’re missing out on in this country because they can’t afford to play the game.”

“There is zero chance I could have played club soccer.”

“My mom made $34,000 a year, single mom raising three kids.”

“She couldn’t pay $4,000 for me to play club. Are you kidding? She couldn’t pay $400.”

“That’s not a good system to create good players.”

Qué gran idea, marcar bien a Messi. Seguro que a ningún técnico se le ocurrió en más de 20 años.

発表にあった通りW杯メンバーから離脱する事になりました。
怪我をしてからここまで、自分にできることは全てやってきたので何も後悔はありません。

もちろん今回のW杯に出場できない悔しさはありますが、それよりもカタールW杯後からキャプテンとしてこのチームを引っ張り「W杯優勝」という目標を当たり前に口にできる集団へと一緒に成長してこれた事を誇りに思います。

今のチームは本当に素晴らしいチームです。
どんな逆境も乗り越え、まだ見たことのない景色を見せてくれると思います。

自分は今回の活動をもって代表を引退する事にします。
なので、これからは1人のファンとして日本代表を応援していきます。
将来、日本代表がW杯で優勝する瞬間は必ずきます。
それを信じてみんなで応援しましょう。

そしてその瞬間が今大会になるように、日本の力を１つにしてみんなで北中米W杯挑んでいきましょう！！

みんな、やるだけ🔥

Suddenly all the people who cared about human rights when Russia and Qatar hosted the world cup and suddenly quiet. .. No fancy documentary from the BBC on immigrants rights. No expose on Crime in inner cities (as we saw in South Africa)

Just silence.

[T @Talhaa10_]

giving the world cup to the usa was a stupid decision.

this tournament was supposed to bring the world together. instead we’re talking about shootings, visa issues, travel restrictions and whether fans from certain countries will even be able to attend

[B @utdbrxy]

congrats to everyone who stood on the right side of history. WE won

Remember Leonard Prescott? Bayern's 16 year old goalkeeper that will be featuring for them tomorrow night?

Bayern Munich need a government permit to play him tomorrow. Not a football permit. A labour law permit. Welcome to the world of Sports Lawyers..

Leonard Prescott cannot legally play at 9pm in Germany. He is 16. The law says under-18s are to stop work at 8pm. Bayern are currently applying for a special exemption for him tho.

I always say that sports law does not exist in a vacuum. Wednesday night is the proof. Because right now Bayern Munich are not just dealing with a goalkeeping crisis. They are dealing with a labour law collision that nobody saw coming.

Under Section 8(1) of Germany's Jugendarbeitsschutzgesetz, minors under 18 are prohibited from working after 8pm. The Champions League match against Atalanta kicks off at 9pm and ends around 11pm.

Prescott cannot legally participate without a special exemption permit from the relevant trade supervisory authority. That permit also requires consent from both parents, his pediatrician and his school before it can be approved. According to @Gazpachen Bayern are currently processing that application.

If the permit is approved, German law then requires a minimum of 12 hours uninterrupted rest before his next working period. So the day after a potential Champions League debut, a 16-year-old legally cannot be asked to train before midday.

Hope you have learned something today.
