    how are the teams chosen for the tournament? Do you have to have won something or are some just invited?

    auckland got in due to winning the oceania champs league
    Auckland are semi professional
    Some of their players didnt even get paid time off for this tournie



    Australian teams play in the asian champs league and didnt do well enough

    Some asian and african champions

    And then they basically shoehorned in as many big european teams as possible

    Basically
    Its bollocks

    Miami we're chosen because Messi plays for them. Ticket sales were poor so they made them cheaper and the game they played was a bore draw 0 - 0

    Tickets weren't selling for the $300 they wanted, so they've massively slashed them but still not selling many, to the point where it's reported theyre going to move everyone to the side opposite the camera to give the illusion that it's more popular than it is.

    That is, unless the Daily Mail is full of ****, which ya know...

    Considering the score, it's a good job they had that goalie.
    None for Kane who got subbed.

    I watched England u21 v Slovenia u21....Wrong choice!!!!....Seems as if England want 6 good chances to score a goal...Unfortunately, we only got 5 decent chances.

    Tried to watch PSG v Atletico but it was such a slow pace (probably due to knackered players and the heat) it was really dull.

    Switched over to Soccer Aid which was much more of a laugh. Shouldn’t be like that really.

    yea, it was played in california at 1pm in june
    it was absolutely roasting
    and both teams had just played 45+ game season

    but they get paid an absolute fortune
    the players suffer and the quality of football suffers

    personally, i wont watch another football game until our friendlies

    Same here. The players must hate it, they just want to be laying on a beach somewhere. I think fans need a break as well and we come back refreshed and excited for the new season, with stupidly raised expectations and talk about whether to book hotels for the play off final now or leave it a few games.

    I wonder what odds you could have got for 10-0 and Kane to not get one.
