FIFA World Cup - Qatar 2022: Dead Migrant Workers Edition

[Roranora]

soft penalty call..

[Roranora]

this is why people believe in karma, what drama indeed

[Tyche]

Germany goes down after being up 1-0 going into the half (and having a 2nd goal called back on an offsides) and allowing 2 goals after the 75th minute to Japan.

Japan goalie killed it. Ton of saves, only goal allowed was on a PK.

[Roranora]

if a tournament favorite goes 1-0 up on a first half penalty, they're a lock to lose 2-1

we might have lots of upsets this competition; it's a rather strange setting all around. perhaps an African team can make a run for romanticism's sake

[Mertron]

or

maybe some saudi official got in some umpires ear about a million dollar money line bet on these underdogs!

What a polite celebration in Japan. They GTFO of the intersection to minimize traffic interruption - https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comm...er_japans_win/

[Roranora]

Japan fans are also back to cleaning up the stadiums and picking up trash, in matches Japan didn't play, in sections they didn't sit

they gotta be the neutral's gentlemanly favorite

Portugal 3-1 ahead against Ghana. 2 goals for Portugal in 3 minutes.

Ronaldo becomes the first player to score in 5 different World Cup's.!

[Mayareira]

A minute to go and Ghana crawls back to 3-2.

With long stoppage times in this WC another upset may be on cards.

edit: 9 mins of stoppage time.

[Mayareira]

No upsets, final whistle.

Portugal 3 - 2 Ghana

C. Ronaldo 65' (P)
Andre Ayew 73'
Joao Felix 78'
Rafael Leao 80'
Osman Bukari 89'

Solid showing by US in the first half. Still knotted up at 0. US was def aggressive and had a couple shots on goal with one being a dinger off the cross bar.

[Mertron]

me and 4 friends did an impromptu bet on the game beforehand. believe it or not no one knew what the other person picked

i have 0-0
friend has 1-1
friend has 1-0 us
friend has 1-0 england

all of us are nervous

[Mertron]

hey i won $60

what a dumb last play but whatever

[Tyche]

Well, that was anticlimactic

[FallingHigher]

USA wins 0-0

[Roranora]

US vs Iran for a place in the knockouts is pretty good

same for Ecuador-Senegal in Group A
