International Soccer: POCH

The only thing is if our defender headed it on goal on the first shot

If not that was worse than the Michigan Michigan state phantom touchdown from like 15 years ago

lol. definitely dont deserve to go through if u can’t score that.

Replay official drawing lines like / for that offsides

Fucking brutal

This line is accurate, it parallels the goalie box line. It depends on when you think the ball made contact with the head.

Gosh I hope that Bolivian player is ok. He went down and didn’t move for a long time.

Should get 10 minutes stoppage. Will get 4

Oh FFS

always makes me think of the daniel tosh skit about how you should never bet on soccer because they just randomly make up a number and that’s how much time is added.

tbf, when they actually had an extra time formula for the world cup, everyone bitched and moaned about the games being “too long”

Just non-dribbler shot on goal would be nice.

My problem with this frame is that I don’t think it’s reached the guy’s head.

yeah the line seems to be drawn from the frame when it is just reaching his head, not when he heads the ball forward. they needed to advance a frame and THEN draw the line…


this is the correct frame. i have no idea how they decided to use a different one. im guessing when they switched cameras to try and make a better angle?

Dude is miles offsides.

Doesn’t matter we suck

This is all that really counts

After looking at it more. He’s onside

Wow, what a chance and what a save at the end.

couldn’t watch postgame bc Alexi was in full Worst person makes good point mode and I just can’t. It’s not all bad though? We’re more talented than ever. But sometimes they play so soft and weird and we’re not deep, so for example losing weah and balogun hurt. I hope Berthalder goes, in part because I never learned how to spell his name but mostly it’s just time. It’s cool the players like him but at this point who cares. Still feeling cautiously optimistic about 2026. The atmosphere will be insane and it’ll help. More broadly I feel pretty good about where we’re headed in 20-30 years.

and imagine if you were english right now?? They have 45 players better than our best but they’re still rolling with Southgate’s terrorist ball losing and drawing unwatchable games to transylvania and azkaban, it’s outrageous. Both teams obviously need ange but that goes without saying

Is it just me or are Cristiano Ronaldo and Pepe getting way more playing time than they did in the World Cup? What’s up with that? It’s not like they’re younger. Are there injuries they are trying to work around?

Fernando Santos was the manager at the 2022 World Cup.

He is no longer the manager despite making the KO stage.

Make of that what you will.

yeah could be wrong but I think when cronaldo got benched in the world cup it wasn’t all tactical, it was because he got subbed early vs S Korea which induced a vintage tantrum and Santos got pissed, which got Santos sacked

Ronaldo’s Bidening of Portugal is so funny and I hope it keeps going, I’ll bet he’s just dying to play in the next World Cup. Is there anything more beautiful in soccer than when ronaldo gets triggered because a teammate scored without him so his emotions collide with his botox and his face palsies into his own charlie kirk statue?

I read that Pepe is older than a third of the countries playing in the euros. He has said he plans to follow ronaldo’s lead and retire from portugal the same day ronaldo does—he’ll be 43 for the world cup so that’s fun. But from what I saw Pepe actually played pretty well in the group stage and idk he might not have Ronaldo’s talent or passion for undermining portugal.

If Roberto Martinez gets canned I hope he doesn’t end up managing USA, we need something more refreshing
