Well yes I was only joking y'know. I've actually been to Riyadh but not to a MacDonalds there.

Burger King?

2-0. Nicely taken. Didn't panic when the defence dived in and put it away well.
The Saudi defending is a bit crap, though. This could get messy.

Burger King?

That's the one.

Actually a pretty decent game. Better than I was expecting and better than some of the bigger matches will be.

Two awful teams, these would be easy pickings in the 2nd round if any of them get through.

SA certainly won't.

Saudi are out already lol. Russia might make it through dependent on their next match with Egypt. I actually think the game is pretty decent but you're right that the quality was low.

Doesn't bode well for the 48 team version.

16 groups of 3?

Like you say, dreadful idea.

By 2026, it will be 96 teams.

FIFA are run by a bunch of ****s who toss each other off.

Will Scotland qualify for a 96 nation World Cup?

Of course not. They wouldn’t qualify for their own tournament.

What's the Saudi plan b? They need to change something now in order to keep their tournament alive.

 

[PleaseNotPoll]

Big chance for the Saudis. A goal there would've made it interesting.

Were unlucky there.

I think they're ****ed tbh, there is no plan B.

 

[Tel (they/them)]

What's the Saudi plan b?.

It's a bit early for that but it involves orange boiler suits.

 

[PleaseNotPoll]

Saudi keeper al-Karius. Lucky to get away with that.

3-0. Sub's first touch? Bye-bye, Saudi.

 

[Libby]
