World Cup 2022

[Rassvet]

Poland is at home thought right? I think they are slight favorites then

just won the Euros a few months ago...

Fluked it

Fluked it

Stop it

They were very good for years before the tourney and very motivated to do well.
Just ran out of steam after

Ran on motivation at those Euros and went through 2 times on penalties. Hardly can remember a top performance from Italy at NT level.

Nah. Sweden know how to get results bro.

Like [MENTION=5226]El Gato[/MENTION] said Poland are serial bottlers.

Dunno why pens would matter
Croatia went through 3 shootouts and done well to get where they did in 2018
Italy held composure through each knockout even if on back foot vs Spain and played very well vs Belgium
One of two best mentally prepared teams at the Euro

Far from a fluke

Nope. Credit where it's due. And they did have some very good games. They were in good form and kept their nerves in the crunch moments.


Currently Serie A is trash though. Everyone looks a world beater there.

Glimmer hope for US or Mexico to snatch the pot 1 spot off Portugal with good enough results this window but Portugal would probably just end up drawing Qatar anyway with their luck

How does that work? What will decide it?

 

[soul24rage]

Everything is going as planned for Colombia so far

 

[Jadentheman]

Hopefully more people monitor Gio Reyna. Dortmund got another cash cow in hand after Haaland

Tough loss against Costa Rica

Have to wait till Sunday against Jamaica to seal WC qualification.

But due to Panama dropping points today, worst case scenario for Canada is having to play in the inter confederation playoffs against an OFC team to get into WC2022.

 

[Andresito]

Wow had no idea Matty Cash played for Poland.

 

[Fati_Future_BallonDor]

easy win guys, the italy result was shocking though, Chiesa was needed

 

[Morten]

easy win guys

Weren't you guys a penalty miss away from extra time?

 

[Messigician]

No way Mancini survives this right? Sacked tomorrow
