Hi American here. I'm out of the loop on football drama. I noticed lots of memes and digs at Argentina lately. Can someone care to fill me in?

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 41 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

well, the final of the world cup was yesterday, so this is peak soccer talk time until next cup in 4 years. Argentina made it to the final, but their play was poor, no final worthy

Didn't England, who Argentina knocked out, then "play a blinder" for the third place position?

The losers of the semi finals always play for 3rd place.

France versus England, France won, iirc

[–] prettybunnys@piefed.social 6 points 2 weeks ago

England won.

[–] jve@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

iirc

Technically, this made the rest of your comment t true.

[–] then_three_more@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah I know they do. Was commenting that apparently England played really really well in that match to beat France and secure third place.

It couldn't have been that bad. Wasn't Bra7-1 levels of bad on a final. But I guess Brazil did get at least one goal.

That was a semi-final.

They played against a pro team and embarrassed themselves other than their goalie, who blocked like 10 shots. Meanwhile Spain's goalie got to chill almost the whole game.

Edit: typo

Meanwhile Argentina’s goalie got to chill almost the whole game.

I think you mean Spain's goalie got to chill. Argentina's goalie was da real MVP with 10 blocked shots (and one referee assist).

[–] krashmo@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Argentina's goalie was da real MVP

I bet he was pretty annoyed watching Spain's goalie win the "best goalkeeper" award with 0 blocked shots while he had 11. I guess that happens when your team registers 0 shot attempts for 90+ minutes.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Pure intimidation factor.

Yeah. Definitely don't mean their goalie was both chillin and blocking lots of shots.

[–] Marthirial@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Trump got involved and like anything else in proximity to that miserable fuck - Argentina's soccer team in this case - got diaper shit cursed and embarrassed themselves at the final match of the largest sporting event in the world.

The purpose of cortisol is to help the body:

  • metabolize glucose
  • control blood pressure
  • suppress immunity
  • an inflammatory response

You stressed the shit out of stress, careful or you'll rupture something!
