it always puzzles me wth fooball, if the teams are not very good (womens football, school teams, sunday league) you will get high scoring games. Same with exhibition / charity games where otherwise top flight teams are not really trying.

If last nights game had been important it would have been one nill or something

So why does this happen, is the real skill and effort in defence, obviously the attackers are still trying

Pressure.

I'm thinking defence is the part of the game where training, discipline and teamwork are most important - if this part of the game falls to bits through either incompetence or not trying hard enough there will be lots of goals - last nights game was not all that important so may be the defence on both sides relaxed and enjoyed the game. hence all the goals


I think the womens game is a great example of this, in the very top flight of their game, the amount of goals is falling to the mens professional level, clearly with better coaching team work and discipline the defence is stopping the goals

I havent the heart to watch this really, I am so broken hearted.

WTF Tom Cruise introducing the game. Jeeez

One things for sure a Spanish nation will win

Although to be fair there’s a significant Italian population as the names Maradona and Messi suggest.

I really hope Yamal gets a goal out of this.

Console yourself with some traditional half time entertainment.

Which will be in the non-traditional 30 minutes break, after the second quarter.

USA! USA!

And sickining too

 

[Highway Man]

Nauseating if it helps you out with understanding.

 

[Brigadier]

Crazy that 90% of the performers in the second quarter show would be rounded up by ICE, if they were just minding their own business elsewhere.
