Funny thing is that this Curaçao played better football than South Africa, despite getting the heaviest defeat of the tournament.Amazing Curacao...bit depressing that we are literally the worst team in the world cup..but go curacao
These hydration breaks are just advertising revenue slots. It's the American way"I don't know why they need a hydration break. They have hardly earned it" - commentator on the Netherlands - Japan match.
As much as I despise fifa those other ones fall out of their scope, unless there is a fifa police force we don't know about.
Saw a restart for one of the matches was actually delayed after the water break because the ad they were running hadn't finished yet...Hydration Break, proudly brought to you by <insert sponsor>
Yeah it is a bit ridiculous. I have gotten used to seeing an extra water break in rugby on really hot day. But this extra add break for no good reason is silly.These hydration breaks are just advertising revenue slots. It's the American way
Don't think it's as simple as "Netherlands B team". Claude AI underestimates the Total Football machine that is the Netherlands. They start them at like age 5, so there are a LOT (as in thousands) of players ahead of the Curacao first XI.
Was actually surprised they had a hafu. Think it's the first time they've done it.There isn't even a single Honda in the Japanese team, but 3 Suzukis.
Must be a sign of the times since even in the Automotive space Suzuki is going from strength to strength while Honda is flopping.

The world really needs to get over itself. I bet it was just a dare or a bet he had with his mates.
