Well played sir well played.
My gummy-bear died. My unicorn ran away. My imaginary friend got kidnapped. The voices in my head wont talk to me.
I've got a red bull. So I got that going for me.

Brazil and Morocco will murder these two teams.

If you make it through UEFA qualifying, it's hard to argue that you don't deserve to be there.

ETA: But yeah, Brazil and Morocco will pound them.

Scotland is ranked 41st in the world

Haiti is ranked 80th.

Definitely shows on the pitch.

Haiti gave up 14 goals in the group stage in their only previous World Cup appearance. I think that they can challenge that mark.

More exciting match than Brazil vs Morocco.

Brazil and Morocco will destroy both of these squads.

I think there's a chance that Haiti could find a bit of magic for a goal during their time here.

They look more dangerous than RSA, that's for sure.

I can argue it when we're at 48 teams for the first time. We're going to see a lot of bad games during group stage.

To be fair, the 32 team world cup provided its fair share of awful boring matches as well

UEFA benefited less from the expansion than any other federation, going from 13 teams in 2022 to 16 this time.

Ten European teams in the top 48 of the world rankings didn't make the World Cup (versus 2 of the top 48 from all of the other federations put together).

Qualifying is a joke with the expansion, but that really doesn't apply to Europe.

I'm at a watch party at bar in KC and we are under an tornado warning. They are about to move us all into the keg room and everyone is booing the GM.

At this point I think they might as well go to a 16 group, 64 team tournament. They've already ruined qualifying with this format, might as well make sure every team with a pulse gets into the field.

Sure, there would be even more matches between bad teams, but reasonably matched bad teams can still be entertaining.

Great teams can play boring soccer, too. Arsenal, for instance.....

It was quick replay, but that's what I saw. Maybe the Haitian player was tugging his arm.
