Argentina .... and the weakest team. Argentina will win. The US... Israel and Argentina... a three headed monster. Head of FIFA knows what he has to do ...... or else?

Note .... all games are played during daylight...... except the one with Argentina. Should we expect some "floodlight glitches"? .... as in Argentina goes ahead 1-0 on the 76th minute ... the opposing team comes storming back ... successive runs at goal ... Argentina defense is in panic mode then ... out of nowhere .... blackout... and the match awarded to who was ahead. Possible?
Ya'll should check on this dude

I prophesy another offsets in this quarter finals.

Morocco, Norway, Switzerland, Belgium. The gods revealed to me that more than 1 will enter the semi finals unless they don't pray hard enough.

If you have faith let it lead you.

Thus says this ancestor 😁

Once you win a world cup, the draws for the next world cup go favor una.

That's the magic of seeding. Before any draw for world cup, the teams are seeded. The higher the seeding, the better your chances.WInning a world cup..better seeding automatically for the next draw. Perform well at all matches , including friendlies in the four years...seeding gets better.

Argentina won copa america and did well in qualifiers. Seeding better.

And even then, a weaker team on paper does not necessarily mean you go win.
Well said.

I have observed most penaldo fans are not bright upstairs

I am shaky about England and Norway head-on, because anything can happen.

That is my only reservation.
England, Argentina, Belgium, France

It's funny how someone can spend their time keeping everyone updated, yet instead of a simple Nice one, all people do is argue. A little appreciation for the effort wouldn't hurt...... grin grin ;

Argentina that FIFA is pushing from back and front to progress into the finals will win Switzerland? I don't think so.
If you think FIFA is pushing them, then it means FIFA will push them past Switzerland, no be so?

If Argentina manages to cling this 2026 world cup, I don't think Ronaldo's mental health will remain the same. grin

Because the banter that what will follow to his disadvantage will be overwhelming. grin grin grin

It was very unbelievable. When I saw it, I lost every banter in me for him and began to feel strong pity for him. I wasn't like this few months ago, his fans made me start enjoying his banters when they will never stop bantering the true GOAT Messi.

But this is very disgracing. Let's see what AI have to say about it.

He really brought down Portugal. Now I see the reason why the Portuguese teammates don't want to play with him. They know that world cup is not like UEFA Nations League (Friendly Match Tournament). It is a different kind of ball game.

Police are bracing for a “war zone,” not just in Paris but across the entire country, due to the France-Morocco World Cup match.

Authorities are reportedly preparing for a scenario of “complete chaos,” with fears that North African riots could rage for days

As somebody that grew up watching a golden era of Brazilian footballers, it’s actually quite sad seeing where they’re at now.

That country is football obsessed, but something has gone wrong somewhere. Where are the Ronaldos and Ronaldinhos and Cafus? That Selecao is gone.
It is EPL that killed them, those years they mostly play in Seria A and Laliga and hardly select epl players, money influenced and changed them to negative point.
