Which team are ice gonna accidentally deport first?

The rain, it raineth every day
Ridiculous. 
At what point do we accept that football is no longer a sport, but should be classed as entertainment alongside wrestling?
World Cup 2026: Fifa to keep top seeds apart in draw
The top four seeded countries will not be able to meet each other until the semi-finals of next year's World Cup for the first time in the tournament's history.www.bbc.co.uk
Good for the top 4 seeds, not sure it's a particularly fair rule though.
That said i think this is quite common in other sports is it not ?
Ridiculous, Ronaldo's "suspended" suspension, just sick of it all tbh
Of all the
that we've had to watch derail the game, this is the ultimate low bar.It's the final hand over the keys to our sport.
Papa Shango
Player Valuation: £70m
More needs to be made of this. It's blatant corruption.
Is there any precedent for that Ronaldo decision?
We should ask for Gueyes 3 match suspension to be 'suspended' because, why not.
They are aye. He’s a legend for sure but he’s been holding them back a while and most think he should be a sub at best.
M.Klose (Germany) scored 16 goals across 4 consecutive world cup tournaments. Seems he already holds the record for scoring at 5 world cups.
There it is, wants to go head and shoulders above the rest, there's plenty scored at 4 world cups...
Pele (Played in 4, scored in 4, won it 3 times)
Messi (Played in 5, scored in 4)(1 win)
Seeler (played 4, scored in 4)
Klose (played in 4, scored in 4)(1 win)
Muller (played in 4, scored in 2)(1 win)
Lothar Matthaus (played in 5, scored in 3)(1 win)
suarez (played 4, scored 3)
Wilmots played 4 scored in 2
Cahill played 4, scored in 3
Hierro played in 4 scored in 3
Shaqiri played in 4 scored in 3
Cavani played in 4 scored in 3
maradona played in 4, scored in 3, 1 win.
Interesting area of research this...
Fat Ronaldo, winner twice.
Vava, won twice.
Doing this the hard way. Lets try again.
Only Pele has won the WC 3 times. G.O.A.T.
There are 20 players that've won it twice (not including Pele) of these 20, 15 are Brazilian. So, the 5...
Giovani Ferrari, Italy, 1934 1938
Guido Masetti, Italy, 1934 1938
Giuseppe Meazza, Italy, 34 38
Eraldo Monzeglio, Italy, 34 38
Last but not least...
Daniel Passarella, Argentina, 1978, 1986
So, onto some more trivia. There are 3 world cup winners that have represented two different nations at WC tournaments.
Luis Monti, played for Argentina in 1930, and won it with Italy in 1934.
Attilio Demaria, Argentina 1930, won for Italy 1934.
Jose Altafini, won for Brazil 1958, played for you guessed em, Italy 1962.
There are only 4 players alive now that've won multiple (two) world cups. Cafu, Ronaldo, Pepe, Passarella.
Yeah, erm, go football!
I foresee all of the goal scoring records and conceding records being shattered next WC. When St Kitts and Nevis get pummelled 17-0 there will be questions asked.
Miroslav Klose is going to be the hottest interview in town. "Mr Klose, you scored 16 goals over 4 world cups and that used to be the record, Harry Kane with his triple hat trick vs Tuvalu is now top of the pops, do you feel this new world cup format makes a mockery of all previous competitions?"
