What the hell did he do? That a big ban for "swearing" i assume at an official?

So they were winning, and he loses his temper to an official who called a foul on him and refused to shake officials hand after the game. Strange doesn't sound like the Messi i know hmm.


You really need to watch more Argentina matches, he looks desperate every match lol

either way, thats the same ban (4 games) that Vidal, Suarez, Neymar, Medel got for swearing at officials

Petke was the NY Red Bulls head coach who became a celebrity for getting the Supporters Shield and into the Eastern Championship Finals then they fired for no apparent reason. After 2 years. He was a player and fan favorite and was improving the club every year when they fired him because they believed he wasn't doing enough, since then the Red Bulls have't even got further into the playoffs nor have they won any trophies. This was the town hall the club had for fans when introducing the new coach, who since then has been replaced.

He should've answered that he intedns to win the olympics first.
On a less fun note, I think it's more likely that this was football reporter, more likely a random reporter who was told to go there because of the hype.

Rumored world cup spot allocation for 2026 (still a long way to go), according to german tv:
uefa 16
concacaf 6
conmebol 6
caf 9
afc 8
ofc 1
2 more determined via playoffs (1 participant from each confederation except europe, 1 additonal from hosting confederation)
These playoffs will be held in the hosting country in november before the actual world cup. Small chance that they might replace the confed cup.

Yeah well nothing spectacular here. Notably, this means the hosting confederation will only gain 1/3 of an additional spot, while they had a full additional spot for the last few editions.

Being more successful than Spain in the last WC is quite easy.


I forgot Costa Rica, sorry.

All they have to do is show they can still beat Canada every now and then. Maybe some islands. Who knows, maybe Cubans will suddenly take a liking to football?

I'm not sure I would want more group matches at the world cup, the first phase is already long enough and good games relatively rare during it. Diluting the number of good teams during the longest phase of the competition is a bad move imo. A world cup without even one group of death? No thanks.

I would still happily watch, who am I kidding?

another evidence that they follow money & fantasy and not football quality.
Handball has this "problem" for decades. Euro is far more stacked than WC in Handball.

and yet scrub nations have won the Euro several times but a WC has always been won by a powerhouse (in football).

I would never call the Euro more stacked than a WC
