FIFA World Cup 2026 - discussion etc

Paraguay scores! Not the best marking. 1-0.

Nobody tracking the overlap. Completely free header.

I just screamed “a la mierda!” out loud, and my wife heard it from the garden and said “Gol de Paraguay?”

ETA: Translations: “What the fuck?!” and “Paraguay scored?”

Can you sing that to the tune from I Got it From Agnes?

OK, so me chupa un huevoI don’t give a fuck
And ¡a la mierda!what the fuck?!
Argentinian Spanish seems funny, and that is not even taking lunfardo into account.
And I thought you did not want to jinx your neighbours :wink: You, it seems, are a bad jinxer. Keep it up!
PS: I read that you have freezing temperatures in Buenos Aires right now, what is our poor wife doing in the garden? Is this the only place she can flee her loco marido futbolero during the matches? Or did my weather report source lie to me?

In this context yes, it can mean other things.

I’m not watching the game! just feverishly refreshing the SDMB, The Guarding live blog and google…

It’s cold as fuck currently, we are the coldest non-polar region in the world at this moment.
But no she was there motu proprio, we lived 23 years in an apartment, in 2024 we finally bought a house with a garden (a huge garden!) and she loves it, cold not-withstanding.

Off-topic non withstanding: congratulations!

Thanks!
I’m thinking of poor EinsteinsHund now, sending good vibes in his direction.

All I know is that in his place I would be taking deep breaths like I learned in Yoga class.

For a short interlude, I break my radio silence in German games: I don’t believe in yoga, I handle it with wine, much red wine. i’m dying here…

Germany has certainly had its share of chances thus far in extra time.

And there’s another one, and they convert!

Foul??

Soft as fuck. Ridiculous decision.

Oh, my, VAR pulls it back.

On a flop, no less.

It wasnt egregious, but you can’t get in the GK space

Did Paraguay bring in a different team after losing to the US?

Is 120 minutes full time for both OTs?
