Southgate finally delivers a trophy for England.
How has Modric won Bronze Ball. It's like they picked him just because they know he won't be playing another WC. So many more deserving of that, even on his own team.

Atlanta are very good at developing young South American players, so it's a testament to their club ethos to have one of them representing Argentina in a World Cup Final.

And quite frankly outside of the ludicrous Egypt, Greece, Saudi and the political suck up of the Spain/Portugal bid of adding Ukraine, the only credible alternative is the lone Morocco bid.

Surely they don't give it to SA so soon after 2014? Especially as it'll be 20 years since Africa last hosted (16 since SA).
Maybe I have been swayed by the fact that it'll be the 100th anniversary of the first WC which was held in and won by Uruguay.

Imo, 2030 should be the Southern South America bid (Argentina, Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay) and 2034 should be Spain, Portugal and Morocco in a first cross-continental hosting.

Won't be so much of an issue making this change for 2026 if they need extra host cities as there are plenty of cities they turned down to host games which have the stadia and infrastructure to host.

Didn't clock but Spains WC record is really bad since winning it. Well it's bad full stop if you exclude 2010. Last 3 now, group stage, 2nd round pens to Russia and 2nd round pens to Morocco.
They're just reverting back to average. Look at Spain's record in World Cup before 2010. 1 Semi Final appearance before they won it, and that was in 1950.

Can we update the thread title to Netherlands vs Argentina vs Lahoz.
Also expecting a Wikipedia article after that debacle.

I was going to say Lahoz has basically made the yellow cards guess pointless.

It sounds as if he'd moved in recently to the house and had workmen in to do work, so it's possible one of those people tipped people off as to the access codes.

Sound the Heartwork klaxon, for this is the Strait of Gibraltar derby. These two countries even share land borders thanks to Spain's own colonial past with three sections of Spanish land on the Moroccan coast.
There's only 2 Spanish exclaves that border Morocco; Cueta and Melilla

The Senegal band and the fans in the body paint didn't stop dancing for the entire match, shame they couldn't grab a goal at the end to give them something to cheer about.
From what I saw on TV, the first 'E' looked a bit downhearted during the 2nd half.

How much have you already forgotten about the World Cup

The awarding of the World Cup was the bigger accelerant to Qatar rather than the 4 weeks of hosting. The last 12 years have been more important than the next 12 years will be.
