i would have preferred to see them die at the world cup lol

Italy drawn into a group with Canada, USA and Tonga. It’s lit

Did Putin meddle in the World Cup draw for Russia?

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Even with the expansion to 24 teams Euro is still twice as hard to get through than the World Cup. This tournament is going to be a joke at 48 teams.

I actually think they have a pretty tough road to navigate. Egypt and Uruguay are no slouches.

/WHY COULDN'T THEY HAVE DRAWN ENGLAND

Worth pointing out that despite these cupcake draws they’ve gone out in the groups in 2 of their last 4 WC’s.

My guy in Singapore told me that Poland is where the money is. Not sure what that means tho.

The guy in blue and white scored. The ref called offside. Portugal has VAR. It wasn't used here.

Neither team may have won anything recently but combined they've made 2 World Cup finals and 1 Euro final since 2006!

Shit, I spent a decade reminiscing over the "good ol' days" when my guys made a final and two semi-finals convinced that was as good as it would ever get lol.

Benevento get their first ever Serie A point thanks to a goalie goal!

From this camera angle it looks like a totally different goal (and stadium) lol

Mr. Gattuso, how did you feel about the goal?
