World Cup

[Diane CBPFC]

The way I see it is that it's Argentina's to lose today - and so they might the way this competition seems to have been scripted. Hopefully its a fair match and the better team wins.

I am a lonesome World Cup fan so it was fun yesterday that my niece texted me throughout the game about the game so we kind of watched it together.

If, after the whole thing, you are feeling down in the dumps, I want to recommend a fun little soccer film by Taika Waititi that I came across called "Next Goal Wins" based on the true story of the American Samoa team. A lighthearted feel-good movie.

England is now a Mediterranean country: we have hot weather, a shit economy, and a good football team.

Yesterday's game between England and Argentina was pretty brutal. More fouls than KFC

Hope they decide if they are going into battle or playing the beautiful game before Sunday's match.

I don't think there's the same 'history' between the nations in Sunday's game, Diane. But once Argentina decided to play their best game rather than settle old scores, the match improved considerably. That said, I admit I rather enjoyed it all.

Don't forget to tune into Saturday's 3rd/4th place runners-up match between France and England. It's the game everyone wants to see scrapped (except FIFA), and instantly forgets once the final whistle blows, but I have a sneaky feeling this one could be a cracker. Again, 'history' may well play its part.

Given that Trump wants nothing to do with Spain, I want Spain to win. I hope this happens without my having to show any interest in the match, the score, or the team.

Noted. Although with Trump's propensity to change his mind at any given moment without seemingly realising he's doing it, your logic could evaporate over a Big Mac at any minute. Would you wish to be informed should that happen, or is blissful ignorance your preferred status on all things football?

Because the pressure is off, they could have a cracker of a match - give those three guys a good chance of getting the golden boot over Messi
