The games have been good. What's ruining them once again is the ing VAR. Honestly the worst thing to ever be done to football
Another boring ass game, it's like every team is playing for penalties Japan was the most exciting squad..
Messi is the only thing making this compe ion watchable..too bad Neymar couldn't play..

VAR isn’t perfect but I still think it’s a great addition tbh
Peru wins despite not having a single scoring chance all game
3 disallowed goals + Cavani with the worst miss of the compe ion..
Feel bad for my uruguayan brothers, was rooting for them to win it all tbh since brazil isn't going to the final. Oh well, guess it'll have to be Chile now. Realistically though Argentina should easily dispatch whoever they face in the final so its all moot
I wish they would get rid of it but if not at least make it a challenge system tbh
Hope you’re not betting on this thing, past the first round, it’s fairly unpredictable...
VAR needs to be way quicker and more transparent... the whole 4+ mins with nobody not knowing what’s going on, and no replays from the TV is bull
4 quarter final games, 360 minutes, 2 goals
South Americans single-handedly setting football back 50 years
This is the reason why football haters hate football, because of trash games like these
This is not the product of good physical defence like some like to claim here. This is incompetence and poor attacking footballPERIOD

Next World Cup is gonna get extra ugly. Europe gonna run a train on these bums, colonial style
Concacaf to the rescue
Concaf is the least succesful confed or maybe its africa.
In terms of points per team
Also if argentina wins.
Should have an * next to it.
Qatar is not a south american team.
Interesting
Just small bets once I found out the stupid format that goes straight to penalties..it allows teams like Peru and Paraguay to just hold on for their lives all game and hope it gets to penalties
Cavani's goal should have counted, though, didn't even look offsides IIRC..
Fifa introuduced a new rule a few years ago.
1. Intentional or not handball
2. Offensive player initiating contact (Japan vs Uru)
3. Advantage rule if both players feets are equal (uru vs peru)
All of a sudden these rules dont matter anymore. The advantage rule is non-existant.
Cavanis head was ahead by a hair. Thats not an offisde.
They seem to simplify things with var now.
Trolling aisde, i think Messi gets his championship this year and cements himself as the 2nd best player of all time. At worst. From most fans. Not me personeally, but others.
Crazy how international soccer plays a huge part on players legacy. Huge contrast to other sports
parking the bus is pretty common at this point, tbh...
3 goals alone in Uruguay-Peru, tbh, only for the VAR to swoop in and ruin all the fun... had to be an Euro invention to make the games even more terrible, smh
From semis on it goes to extra time.
Messi, Agüero, Lautaro, Firmino, Gabriel Jesús, Suárez, Cavani, Alexis Sánchez, James, Falcao, Zapata. Incompetence and poor attacking football.
