World Cup Final:
Spain is the first nation to hold both the Men's and Women's World Cups at the same time. Incredible team defensive effort - one lonely Leo shot plus another team shot - leads to a 1-0 dethronement of Argentina, whose Cup defense was their best ever.
World Cup Semifinals and Third Place Game:
- Spain clearly outclassed France
- Poor substitutions and defensive formations doomed England as Argentina looks to repeat its Cup Title
- England bounced back with a brilliant scoring start to their match, holding off France for their first 3rd Place W.
Okay, I'm having my first sad moment regarding the Great Bluesky as run by the Beautiful Jay.
Why do people remain fascinated with such inane reality shows? The Explore List has been saddening the last couple of days. Where are the subjects for the World Cup? Heatwaves? Literally Real Life?
World Cup Quarterfinals:
Egypt ran out of fuel, and Champion Argentina took advantage.
Credit the Swiss for taking down the virus-plagued possession-lacking non-finishing Colombian squad.
Can't see the Swiss stopping Leo's Lions.
Speaking of Lions, as in the actual name of England's team....1/2
Bluesky Bogue on the World Cup:
Hats Off (or in two cases, Sombrero Off) to:
Canada, Brazil, Norway, Mexico, France, England, Belgium, America, Portugal, Spain, and after their first knockout win, Switzerland.
Heartsick for the Mates. Australia gave up too much possession, just like the Dutch.
