    FIFA will either do all they can to get the Americans to the final, or the opposite, it'll be like the Copa America, where the US was on the end of some extremely dubious decisions and forced out early.

    Either way, there'll be some sort of corruption going on. Guess it depends who provides the fattest brown envelope.

    Genuinely wouldn't be surprised if they tried to extend the HT break to fit it in. Gonna be the worst world cup ever.

    Unless we win it of course.

    They definitely will. In the Super Bowl the HT break is 45 mins rather than 15 in normal games.

    What it does for players having that long a break in what is a much more physical (in the sense that 10 players from each team need to keep warm as they are playing the whole time) we’ll have to wait and see

    Liverpool are using up all their 9 lives in one half here.

    Genuinely can't see how konate is not sent off. Liverpool fans would be having meltdowns! Watch them go on and win it now.

    Maybe, but I would prefer Arsenal to win the CL for the first time!
