This ref is terrible but Liverpool played their worst game in years. Didnt deserve anything. Still will finsh ahead of Arsenal but behind City.

I think it’ll end up close between us but City will pull away like usual.
I agree, City is going to win 4 in a row. I do think it will City/Liverpool/Arsenal and then probably Spurs or Villa. 5th place might get the champions league spot this year.

World Cup 26 match announcements happening now.

Mexico City hosts the opener.

Canada is playing its opener in Toronto. :( Boo.

Oh, snap. Canada's other two matches are in Vancouver. I am going to be poor in 2026. :laugh:

Ameros start in LA. One other game in LA and one in Seattle.

5 group stage games in Philly.

Dallas hosts the most total games with 9.

3rd place match is in Miami.

Final match will be held in New York... well, New Jersey, really... Giants Stadium.

Philly also gets a round of 16 match. Vancouver gets round of 32 and round of 16 matches. Vancouver (7) gets more total matches than Toronto (6). :laugh: Six total matches in Philly.

Semis in Dallas and Atlanta.

Quarters in LA, KC, Miami and Boston.

These words were actually spoken. Never forget.

You're a smart dude, so it pains me that I have to explain this every week. Let me try this in a way you might understand finally.

The Red Wings beating the Flyers in the NHL doesn't magically make Lokomotiv a better team than the Flyers, nor the KHL even on par with the NHL.

What? That stadium rocks when international games are played. I assume I am missing sarcasm.
Does it? That stadium is really bland. I guess they would actually have to put down grass for it too.

I’m going off the old one that was right next door to the new one but my experience:

Two World Cup games in 1994

2005 concacaf final

Juve/ac Milan
One of those against Man United ( Tim Howard’s first game)

Barca against ny mls team

I think. Forgetting a couple more matches

Meadowlands has had an amazing environment for international soccer. Are you just trashing the new stadium? I have never been. The attendance was always electric and beyond any Flyers Eagles game I have ever been to.

Putting grass down? Really? Of course they will. Sarcasm ... I guess? Or trolling ...

Meadowlands is right outside of NYC which us the biggest city in the hosting 3 nations, with the easiest access. It only males sense that they're getting it, and its silly to think they would have seriously considered anywhere else.
