[Ab. @olaoluwajedalo]

If you have to teach university graduates digital and career skills, don’t you think it’s an indictment of the quality of the educational system?

[Vod Kanockers @Tucodeeg01]

@Ozokingss @_DeConsult @DrJoeAbah You people are underestimating the character development derived from those military drills. Those early mornings, drills were the first time some people experienced genuine routine of discipline in their lives. They shouldn't have scrapped it completely but toned down.

Me to Argentina after Lionel Messi retires.

[FlickDefender @hansidisciple]

I wish I could say I hope the knockouts for Argentina is controversy and penalty free BUT who even knows man Ronaldo fans can create controversy out of literally anything.

Mac Allister clearly wins the ball? Drama.
Senesi gets kicked in the head? Drama.
Lautaro gets fouled by 2 defenders? Drama.
Messi commits a challenge 12 other players this WC have committed without punishment? Drama.

[BeksFCB @Joshua__Ubeku]

A team that Spain and Uruguay couldn't beat is the easiest team that FIFA gave to Argentina.

The same team you people celebrated when they drew against Spain oh!

All of a sudden, they are a bum because they are facing Argentina.

[JA @DamnItWasFun]

This is one of the rare times I'm going to totally disagree with you, somewhat disappointed even. This entire take is a masterclass in psychological projection and a massive, desperate rewrite of football history. You're talking about a "missionary smugness" and a "manufactured narrative" to cope with the fact that the debate didn't end in a media lab it ended on the pitch.

It's a projection for me. To claim Ronaldo fans are just "content with their preference" while Messi fans are "zealots" is hilarious. The entire Ronaldo movement is built on an aggressive, highly online cult of personality that filters the entire sport through raw individual statistics. For a decade, the narrative from that camp was simple and uncompromising: “Goals are the only objective metric. Numbers don't lie”.

But the moment Messi matched the goal scoring volume while maintaining vastly superior playmaking, dribbling, and trophy metrics, the goalposts didn't just move they were completely uprooted. Suddenly, analyzing the actual phase of play, chance creation, and spatial awareness became labeled as "intellectual arrogance" and "smugness." It's not a superiority complex to point out that one player dictates the entire tactical structure of a match while the other relies on it, it's just basic tactical literacy.

The argument that the 2022 World Cup was hollow or hand delivered because people felt Messi deserved it is the ultimate coping mechanism. Nobody handed Messi 7 goals, 3 assists, and a masterclass performance in the greatest final ever played. He earned it by dragging his team through a grueling tournament under intense pressure.

When the footballing hierarchy meaning actual legendary players, managers, and peers who understand the game, said Messi deserved a World Cup, they weren't talking about a political handout. They were acknowledging the sporting injustice that the most complete footballer to ever live might walk away without the ultimate prize.

Trying to link a brief, emotional international retirement in 2016 to a global conspiracy that fixed a World Cup six years later in Qatar is pure really an unintelligent move. The alarm bells didn't sound to "manufacture a legacy" the legacy was already cemented by four Champions Leagues, multiple Ballon d'Ors, and record breaking statistical seasons at Barcelona.

You claim that what held him back was his own failure on the pitch, completely ignoring that he carried a chaotic, dysfunctional Argentina federation to three consecutive major finals before finally getting a stable managerial setup under Scaloni.

People aren't "waking up" to anything, you’re just trying to intellectualize your own footballing heartbreak. The "asymmetry" you’re feeling isn’t a media conspiracy or a religious dogma. It’s just the harsh reality that when the ultimate footballing arguments were settled on the biggest stage on earth, your narrative ran out of road. You can call the consensus smug all you want, but reality isn't a narrative—IT'S JUST WHAT HAPPENED.

[IRAN EMBASSY in KENYA @IRANinKENYA]

This is Tijuana 4:00 am last night. Iran national team arrived.
This is the most unfair and shameful #WarCup in history.
If any of this happened to Team USA in Iran — no recovery after matches, immediate flights to the airport, massive external pressure, or management/logistics staff denied visas — FIFA would suspend Iran instantly, cancel hosting rights, and slap on heavy fines.
But when it’s our Team Melli? Total silence and bias for the wrong side.
Shame on America.
Shame on FIFA.
Team Melli fights with dignity anyway.

They already faced them in the Copa America final. It got called an easy mickey mouse tournament because they won.

[Mal @UtdMaI]

Iran played three matches.
They drew all three.
And in every single one, they fought with heart, pride, and dignity.

But after their final match, the host nation reportedly demanded they leave immediately.
No time to recover. No time to rest. Just pack up and go.

That is not how you treat athletes.
That is not how you treat human beings.

Despite the pressure, the restrictions, and everything stacked against them, Iran kept showing resilience.

This team deserves respect, not mistreatment.

That’s the spirit of the World Cup.

[New Direction AFRICA @Its_ereko]

🚨 Iran captain Mehdi Taremi just exposed @FIFAcom and the US:

“This is a disaster World Cup. Infantino promised to fix everything in our locker room… he did nothing. We can’t stay in Seattle — forced back to Tijuana every time. They want us out.”

Visa denials for staff. Day-before travel from Mexico. No recovery. Constant harassment because Iran refuses to bow.

This isn’t sport. It’s political sabotage by the empire using the World Cup as a weapon.

FIFA claims neutrality while Infantino plays lapdog. Iranian players still fighting with dignity.

Expose it. Stand with the players.
