FIFA WORLD CUP 2026 - DISCUSSION AND WATCHALONG THREAD ⚽️. Part 8

[placemats]

Let's continue the discussion.

Planning on a Ted Lasso marathon to ease us back into reality

If Argentina had scored first think itd worked more in our favour. Issue was soon as lead was taken it all went to pot and they had chance after chance after chance until eventually got there.

Too many defenders..mistakes made. Think be silly to sack Tuchel at this stage but who knows stranger decisions have been made before..

Red card 🟥

NOW.

Exactly. If they think their winning was fair with dirty playing, hardly any yellow cards which they should’ve got and a ref obvs (and has been in the past) biased towards Argentina then I hope they’re happy.

I can't believe bellimgham had no time on the ball we have magic in him and yet somehow he was totally cut off !

@Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain what I want to know is how much vodka you got through 🤣

Bellingham should’ve scored as per previous match before half time. He was prevented by argies and a dodgy ref. That gives me a reason to hate Moroccans and Americans now as he’s both.

Half the bottle of vanilla.

Oh dear

I get that your Tik Tok algorithm is feeding you stories of how the world hates England. No doubt some people do.

But many, many people detest Argentina (in football). Because they are detestable. As antics like this illustrate.

I really don’t like Argentina. I think Spain should beat them though. They’ve only conceded one goal in the whole tournament. Argentina’s defence is much weaker.

Montage of sadness ON NOW

It won't be good 😂

Absolut Vanilla? Great stuff. Way too easy to knock it back.

that was the Argentines tactic. And we tried to stop Messi magic. I really don’t rate Messi based as a player based on that game. Luckily by next WC he’ll be retired.

Because the tactics were to defend so he stopped the flow to the strikers

We are now downing more in sorrow! Yes absolut vanilla.

Why a third place kick off? Why bother with that ?

Vamos Argentina! Better side on the day.

I’m intrigued to try vanilla vodka!

Mexico was my favourite game

We have moved on from discussing TIktok. It was a woman on mumset who told me about the Argentina team carring the Falkland banner.

Its now the top story on sky news.

what are your thoughts on them carrying the banner?

I have to say the England fans went a bit quiet also they really carried them in Mexico against an entire stadium of Mexicans ! They let Argentina fans dominate.

I'm so pleased gordan got the goal. He really deserves that.

It’s ridiculous and the reason I despise Peter Shilton. But I will still watch it
