Feels totally plastic. Nothing memorable has come out of the fans like the ESCUCHEN song or the ausländer raus chants from Germany Euro

entertaining here and there but way too many filler games. previous world cups i would be hyped about every single match, now i just have some of them on as background noise.
>>
>>155624558
havent watched any matches yet but the fans in us are pretty kino to watch

The format is ass, should've been 8 groups of 6, with 3 rounds. That way you get rid of the uneven number of teams advancing from each group.
>>
>>155624558
It's shit. Soccer is shit. Pls go home.

bloated format and hydradvert breaks, bretty shiddy honestly
>>
>>155626020
fattie MAD

Most games feel like filler and pretty much no meaningful upsets yet.

3rd places going through is already known crap, but not enough people are upset over H2H being used over GD for tie breaks. We'll have too many meaningless 3rd matches because of that.

Why do Europeans get angry when people drink water?
>>
>>155626406
Because their restaurants and cafes charge 4 euros to have a glass of it. They associate water drinking with wealth and yuropoors fly into socialist fits of rage whenever anyone is even remotely successful at life.

unlike the US, tap water isn't poisonous over here

It depends on what you want.

I got underdog Cape Verde, Argentina memes, and a fun Japan vs. Netherlands game.
I like it so far.

I’ve watched every game. Overall I’d say the games have been better than both 2022 and 2018. Even with large gaps in quality there has been some upsets and heroic performances, and more goals and excitement than the previous couple tournaments. The “filler games” have had some gems, like NZ-Iran or Curaçao-Ecuador.

I’ve also been watching lots of the fan culture videos on youtube and such. My impression is that the party atmosphere and cultural mingling is much better than Qatar but still well behind 2018 and earlier.

Downsides: hydration breaks for sure. Not opposed to a quick min for water if it’s hot, but having them every game no matter what, dragging them to 3 mins, and refusing to go to them during natural stoppages like a VAR check or goal is very annoying.

Another downside is the group format. Not a fan of H2H deciding placement, already we see a bunch of dead rubber GW3 matches coming up because there’s no GD to play for.

Game scheduling has been poor, changing start times and gaps between games constantly is just confusing to keep track of. I’d prefer a consistent routine.

Overall 7/10, and I think it’ll go to 8/10 when we get to knockout matches with no downsides of the stupid group format
>>
Where do you watch and stream these for free? I'm just here for cringekino referees.

>>155624558
The hydratation break must go away. What a lame excuse to place more commercials

You don't understand. American events MUST be paid for by the private sector. The state interfering in any matter economically, even for the benefit of normal people, is literally communism.

I like this start more than Russia and Qatar

Pretty good apart from the Jewish ad breaks

Been great. much better than the last two.
it's weeks and weeks of soccer all day, sunshine and beer.
feels like a massive holiday. and my team is making teams score on themselves.

Any good compilation or collage of crowd babes yet?

Camera men are lacking this WC.
Very few crowd babes sadly.

Now you're just making things up.
And you're getting mad about things you made up, chill out with some water
>>
>>155624558
Games so far have all been rather meh at best. Complete trash at worst.
Refereeing is pretty damn bad, and worst of all, extremely inconsistent between games.
No atmosphere, no local culture. Hype is close to zero.
Too much political incfluence overall, too many scandals. Terrible pricing of both tickets and everything else.
Even worse: Too much monetarisation, with completely unnecessary ad breaks ("hydration breaks") for the american market.
Easily the worst world cup in my lifetime (last 38 years).
>>
>>155624558
Too many semen slurpers. I guess it’s expected from a system that allows the “best 3rd place teams” to advance. Then in the knockouts, we are rewarded with more slurpers, as teams try to advance through memelty shootouts
>>
>>155624604
>3rd place advancement
This shit is the worst. 6 in a group top 2 advance would be far better.

He was censored and was expelled just for insulting an adversary while concealing his mouth, in 20 of june of 2026, in the World Cup.

FIFA will pay for doing this to him.
