A thread for those who are watching it.

Not sure how interested in it I will be.
Like I said on the not watching thread, it may depend how far some Countires I am interested in, get to, in the competition.

Shouldnโ€™t have to watch a game constantly wondering why certain players havenโ€™t been booked. Thank goodness Spain won.

I just saw a bit on the news. What awful losers. Maybe theyโ€™ll learn a lesson from all this. Although there has been some dubious refereeing at the end of the day playing dirty doesnโ€™t win.

I won Spain winner I knew that I would win that made me happy and it seemed important to me while seeing Donald deliver the trophy caused me to gag and it is also a betrayal the players who say Waving the flag of a country as marginalized as Palestine shake hands with that guy but good and then there is also the issue of excluding to my country for example ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Likewise, it is already known that football is their instrument to move the pawns that you are humans, neither more nor less.
that take you where they want to divert the other matters that are important and what happens with sports such as skating swimming and others do not interest football, it is already a monopoly

Argentina should be banned from the next World Cup. They are bully boys and get away with an awful lot. The scenes at the end with Argentine players assaulting the Spanish footballers was unacceptable and shows them for what they are.
Well done Spain. Richly deserved.
