2026 FIFA World Cup

Germany lost to Germany?

I think half the Mennonites around here are from Paraguay…

Paraguay defeats ze Deutschlanders!

I caught the last few minutes and the shootout on a TV at work. Man was that shootout ever a nail biter.

Netherlands and Morocco are going into shootout as well. We play the winner. Either should wipe the floor with us but apparently Netherlands is viewed as the stronger team? So hope Morocco takes it I guess.

You got your wish

Yup Canada vs Morocco july 4th

 

[FSTO]

Let’s hope the Moroccans are sore and tired.
Maybe Canada should “park the bus”, take advantage of some rushes and work towards the shoot out?

I really did not enjoy watching the Moroccan floppers - oh, the agony, I'll roll around on the ground screaming. When I was young, if somebody took a pathetic dive, we followed the wise words of our parents - 'Do you want me to give you something to cry about?'

Especially given the Dutch midfielder who got his scalp stitched up on the pitch and kept playing.

In the FIFA standings, Morocco is 6th and the Netherlands is 7th. Canada is 30th. If we can keep our loss to a goal or two, that would be a great showing.

We are playing with house money, right now.

Canada has a national crisis: we lack a national football song.

Bruce Arthur: Canada is becoming a football nation. Now it needs a fight song

World Cup run feels like a turning point and great nations chant and sing. Canada, broadly, does not. Or not enough.

Lets GO CANADA R16 against Morocco...Cape Verde showed how drive can achieve almost the impossible!!

You lucky bastard! Enjoy!

I caught most of the Argentina - Cabo Verde game, and what a game it was! Seeing Argentina struggle to defeat a small Atlantic island is always a delight.
