WORLD CUP 2022!!

Image
 yOOOO Yoooooo The FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 ran from Nov 20 to Dec 18 in 2022, it FLEW by but understandably since it was literally like less than 30 days. It wasn't in the summer due to heat concerns in Qatar so they pushed it back to November.  It's been a week since the BEST WORLD CUP FINAL IN HISTORY that I unregrettably woke up at 7 AM for. Best Group Stage Moments Qatar being trash. Qatar faced a ton of backlash for being a terrible host that offered unethical working conditions, wages, etc. It just seemed super sketchy for this small city-like country to be hosting 4 massive arenas, and they were still preparing some of the venues just days before the tournament was starting. Through all of this, it's safe to say that it's cool to see the middle-east host a World Cup, it's very unique to see the blend of their culture and clothing into the world cup presentation, and that aspect of the tournament was always refreshing to see. Unfortunately, they were the fir...

Japan vs Senegal

If you didn't know Japan and Senegal recently had something really interesting. So Group H in the world cup consists of Columbia, Japan, Senegal, and Poland After each team in that group played twice, the last two games were Senegal vs. Columbia Japan vs. Poland And before these matches were played, the points were Columbia-3 Japan-4 Senegal-4 Poland-0 Now, remember that the last two games were Senegal vs. Columbia Japan vs. Poland These two games were played at the same time, but Senegal vs. Columbia ended first, by like 10 minutes. The final score was 1-0, columbia wins. Now japan saw this final score, and at this time, they were losing 1-0. They noticed, HEY EVERYTHING IS THE SAME. So then they rushed to the rule books, finding which was the tie breaker. There were many rules, the second being goal difference, which they tied in. Japan and Senegal faced each other, so the winner of that match gets to advance, right? THEY TIED. It...

The world cup so far

It's three days into the world cup. It's in Russia so a lot of games are in the morning. Anyway, World cup events??? Yes or no RUSSIA VS SAUDI ARABIA Russia blew out Saudi Arabia in the opening match 5 to nothing. At the half it was two to nothing. Towards the end Russia just kept on bullying Saudi Arabia, making it hard for them to pressure. EGYPT VS URUGUAY This was one I didn't watch, but I did watch the highlights. Saurez choked on an almost wide-open goal. If you don't know who Luiz Saurez is, he's the guy that bit someone's shoulder during the Uruguay vs Italy match four years ago. But Uruguay clutched out at the end scoring a goal at the 89 minute mark. IRAN VS MOROCCO Another one I didn't watch, but I did watch the highlights. During a corner kick, a Moroccan scored on his own goal xD PORTUGAL VS SPAIN This was a crazy match. Ronaldo got a hat trick. Ronaldo got a penalty kick two minutes into the game and nailed it. Later, thi...
