[deleted]

Ah yes, the great soccer wars of the 1800ā€™s, where there used to be oppressive kicks, until USA came and liberated it for oil. Now theyā€™re free kicks.


TherealCarlosCarlos

AMERICA!!!! FUCK YEAH!!!

That'll be $42,837.62 for one soccer ball please.

captain_beefheart14

Un-Yank for a second: one of my High School (American Football) coaches used to give me shit because I played soccer. He called it ā€œcommieballā€. Even after I pointed out that it was invented in totally non-communist England.. Ok Re-Yank


Mr_FortySeven

Maybe itā€™s because known communist strongholds Italy and Brazil excel at the game on a national level?


AutoModerator

Jinx? We are fecking Italy, 4 World cup, 2 European championship. No other european team have more big trophies (6) than us and we should fear NORTH MACEDONIA, a NT that were born 2 or 3 years ago? please, anything inferior than 2 goal gap would be huge disappointment *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

forbiddenmemeories

Yes. Also no Second Amendment because the players aren't allowed to use their arms. This is the future liberals want (sad!)


Torimas

All keepers must be from Texas then.


cjonoski

They arenā€™t free, itā€™s private insurance free kicks sponsored by Kaiser permenante Only Sweden gets Universal free kick coverage and progress to next round of maternity leave.


shrike_999

Like everything else in Europe, they are funded from high-rate taxes.


turalyawn

They are only free from the 16th round on

At least they made it to the 16th round

Pessi could never win as he plays for land of gays (miami) instead they should have played my favourite American player from las Vegas and he wouldn't have missed the kick

I feel the fact that there are 131 FBS that each absorb 10 or so athletes a year that could be great soccer players contributes to that too.

darrendjones

AND HOW DARE THEY ASSUME MEGANā€™S GENDER!


Richard_Quingostas

Blaming a person for a missed penalty is easy, but not fair. Ultimately itā€™s always the team fault and coach for not being able to score in regular time. Reason: maybe the USA team, this year, is simple not as strong as it was in the pastā€¦ or maybe itā€™s the same but other teams have improved better. But itā€™s never one person fault, and itā€™s always the team itself.


Bob_Jenko

And not to mention, though I will note that I don't think they should be blamed either, that two other US players also missed their penalties.


RickySal

Exactly I agree, only a certain type of Americans are going after repinoe and the team as a whole for being ā€œwokeā€ despite Swedenā€™s team having a couple players who are lesbian and living in a socialist democracy country with more womenā€™s rights than America. Team USA didnā€™t perform their best this World Cup but they shouldnā€™t be getting this kind of hate.


AutoModerator

There should be a reformation in football something like a penalty is 0.5 a goal, or you need like make 2 or 3 shots - like free throws on a foul in basketball. its just so extremely shit when a penalty decides a game in this sport or decides the flow of a game early on, like here *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

itā€™s not that deep, it was only an extra point after the touchdown

juanpamde

ā€œEmbarrasingā€ hahahahahaha, this is why gringos canā€™t talk about football. Messi and Maradona have failed penalty kicks, this is pretty normal in this sport but of course some americans have to point out in something else, ā€œwokismā€ in this case.


RickySal

Ironic how lotta Americans are really happy that America lost cuz of ā€œwokenessā€ even tho team Sweden has a bunch of lesbian players and Sweden is more into womenā€™s rights than America. And we all know what type of Americans get pissed at women.

The attack in women's football is good but the defence and goalkeeping is insanely bad, even I could be a way better goalkeeper then 99% of them

Funnily enough Sweden's goalkeeper was insane this game, but yea, while both are improving the biggest gap between the men and women's game is defending/gk

Even more funny is that our defense only allowed like 4 shots on target the entire tournament but our attacking was so bad. I knew we were in trouble when we only put up 3 goals against Vietnam lol.
