** World Cup 2026 - USA, Canada, Mexico Thread **
Saw no thread was active yet while it starts tomorrow so I'd gave it a go
No real time for an extensive write-up but lets
Pretty terrible touch from Haaland.
Almost tapped it weakly into the keeper. He's lucky he had so much time.
Diamonde has to be completely knackered to be taken off here
Quality goals all around, shame about no extra time
Woooow that was close.
Haaland got some funny faces, can't even root against the guy
Haaland is going to have to play a lot better than that vs Brazil for any chance for norway.
Almost had another late dramatic goal, good kick and good save.
haaland played like he bet on himself to not score lol
they're probably gonna get pumped by brazil
Fantastic match.
Haaland will get plaudits but Odegaard was the key player for me.
You can tell by Haaland's sheepish reaction that he got lucky lol. Had almost the entire goal to aim at and he almost passed it to the keeper.
Norwegian men having never lost to Brazil will be everyone's favourite fun fact the best few days
Ive seen Haaland play absolute **** and score a hattrick.. the guy is phenomenal
Sweden have no chance right. 13/1 to win in 90 and 8/1 to qualify. I love a longshot but not sure about this one.
I don't think they have any chance. I don't back dogs unless they have shown they can defend.
oh yeah, sweden lost 5-1 to netherlands 😊
definitely not feeling an upset here...

The 13/1 is probably better than the 8/1 given France's ridiculous depth, but it is just very hard to see.
Sweden aren't totally toothless but conceded 5(!) against the Netherlands. Even if Dembele, Mbappe, Olise have a total off day then Barcola will score two, or Doué from the bench, etc.

Agreed. It just feels less likely than what even those long odds imply. I'll still have a bit on it for the lols.
Gonna have this one on in the background at best. I already feel slightly rustled at Mbappé scoring a hat trick and it hasn't even happened yet.
Arsenal battle here with Saliba vs Gyokeres.
I guess I feel Swedish today, for the LOLs. Sweden has a good attack and crap defense, so I'm expecting 4-1 France.
Odds that a team wearing a yellow jersey will win the WC?
Odds that all teams will be required to wear yellow jerseys by next WC?
At some point Barcola will get his finishing in orderand it's gonna be gg
Lol Mbappé was on his way to celebrate
Holy ****
