Another sensation this time it was Germany who lost 2-1 against Japan.

Which is far more than what England did.

Found this German article through a Danish article.

This German article is not showing any mercy after the defeat.

(Ger)Es war womöglich nicht das Zeichen, auf das viele Fans gehofft hatten, aber es war ein Zeichen. Als sich die deutsche Nationalmannschaft eine Minute vor Anpfiff des Spiels zum Teamfoto zusammenfand, hielten sich die Spieler den Mund zu.

(Eng)It may not have been the sign many fans had hoped for, but it was a sign. When the German national team gathered for the team photo one minute before kick-off, the players covered their mouths.

Its hilarious. The result anyway, but also the symbol thing. The demand for political statements. The idiotic way in which it unfolded. FIFAs role. The hypocrisy. It all degenerated into such a mess that now from any perspective and from any direction seen it appears to look hilarious, absurd, dumb. One could think we send no football team, but a delegation of the German gay and lesbian association.

The Germans do not compare to what the Iranians risk. The latter may face real problems at home for their anthem boycott. Interrogations. Sanctions. Prison? Maybe much worse. And the Germans make such a fuzz about - well, about not getting CSD parades in Doha. When I heard they lost today's match, I laughed out loud. And yes, a hidden, wicked part of me indeed thought: serves them right.

Its all so hilarious. I dispise this team and the DFB. And not because a match was lost, but the whole politically hypercorrect erratic mumbo jumbo they put up on stage since years. I hope the Spaniards make short process, just execute them without further comment and send them home after the first round. Spain go!

Hypocrisy, from A to Z, all controversy around this tournament. One knew it since years - and did nothing. In this regard, Jürgen Klopp hit some of the relevant marks in his now iconic interview some days ago.

I hope the most non-political team wins the cup. And no, I do not want them to wear badges, give political statements, do protests, and all this nonsense. Nor do I expect them top do it. I want them to focus on playing football. Thats what it is about. Not vogues and fashion. Not ideological statements and prove of correct opinions and attitudes. But football. Not more (and not less) is to be expected of them. The DFB nowadays wants to serve too many tables, so do the clubs.

No, I did not watch today. Nor will I watch any match later on. It bores me. Im not interested in this team, it drives me off. Qatar being the place, has little to do with it. The team however, and the general corruption of FIFA: a lot.

Even our Danish DBU have been acting in hypocrite way.
First they have this press meeting where they say they have lost confident in FIFA and Infantino. They also mentioned a possibility to leave FIFA.

Later in the evening-DBU so to say calmed down and are not leaving FIFA or the support for Infantino.

Switzerland just edged out Cameroon 1-0

Just seen the best match in the tournament so far-Uruguay-South Korea.

Oh man it had everything-Intensity in the their offense play both team was happy in playing offensive The match was the most intense so far...only setback no goal was scored-They both had some big chances.

Obviously didn't see England's first game against Iran then, a six goal thriller.

Exocet25fr · 11-26-22, 01:11 PM

France (qualified) 2 1 Danemark

Good luck!

We got humbled today by Croatia, and deserved as much

But the experience we're gaining in this WC is invaluable. We're not in Kansas anymore, definitely a step up from our play in CONCACAF.

Aktungbby · 11-27-22, 07:17 PM

to be sure: based on 7 years of Midwest prep & collegiate soccer myself...it helps to not wear red soccer shoes...one inadvertant click of the heels...and Kansas is buggeraß-cold in November BBY!

Having goaltended against the vastly superior Nigerian national team in the early 70's in a cordial training game(played almost entirely in front of my nets!??

) I'm just tickled the US has managed to tie both Wales (1-1)and England (0-0) thus far...and is up against Iran on Tuesday...with the Iranian team not singing their own national anthem protest-wise; politics ("death to 'merika mentality) should reduce any animosity somewhat.
