2015 Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Got asked last night why have the Men's team not even made a World Cup final since 1966. Yet the Women have. I don't think neutrals understand how hard it is to win a World Cup in the Men's game. I think these kind of comments are doing the Women's game a disservice by comparing it to Men. Their achievement is their own achievement and in no way a fair and direct comparison can be made to what the Men have done/do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite the allegations against him, and the fact that 15 players collectively said last year they refused to play for him again unless changes were made (some did begrudgingly return), he probably won't go unless he quits. There's plenty of online articles which explain that issue further, but for now I'll post a link to this one written by someone I know https://since-71.com/unwanted-redemption-why-spain-winning-the-world-cup-would-be-dissappointing-for-womens-football/ Edited August 17, 2023 by shahanshahan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1960maaan Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 3rd & 4th place playoff (pointless game IMO) , is it just me or does it feel like if the Ref is asked to take a look at something they feel obliged to give the decision.
