@22Michelle well said.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

@22Michelle Oh, I absolutely get it. You didn't even mention the political history, which absolutely matters.

Though the hatred of some Scotland fans does reach an insane level of pettiness. I'm swear some people north of the border want England to lose more than they want Scotland to win!

I guess I'm in a contradictory situation in that I'm a leftwing progressive who is an English nationalist when the football team plays. I don't understand that either TBF. 😎

@Burnley123 The hatred of some is indeed insane. However, having experienced the reaction of English fans during the 1970's - 1980's when Scotland regularly qualified, and England didn't, it goes both ways. That said I"ve always found that both sides usually just have some fun with it for a week at most either side of the game or competition and that's it.

@Burnley123 So much for my dream... Egypt is crushing it

EDIT: And the dream is still alive...

EDIT part II: And it's dead again

EDIT part III: And we are there 🤷‍♂

@Kwek00 Told you FIFA are looking for a Messi / Argentina WC Win.

And btw is anyone else wondering how Messi is managing to be still putting in a hard shift at 90+ minutes?

@22Michelle I've seen the game... I didn't think there was anything fishy going on. There were other games, where there should have been some extra yellow cards, that weren't given.

Being fit... helps.

@Northwest @Northwest Thank you.

Yeah, Mexico had home advantage and a half. They are not one of the best teams in the world, but I think Mexico at the Azteca is one of the toughest fixtures you can have in this WC. To come through that in those circumstances is an achievement.
