I agree that I am not able to see the patterns or the tactics. But I grew up watching baseball, football, and basketball.
Baseball tactics you can easily see because of all the standing about. Mangers position players based on statistics of where the batter hits a specific pitcher, on an on. It’s a slow game, a chess match. Easy to see. American football you watch lineups and match ups with a pause to see what is going on. I get that. Soccer I just have not watched enough to understand what is going on.
I will watch it when the clock properly counts down. I am stubborn about that issue. But I am a Scotsman born in America so I can be unreasonably stubborn about things. It’s in my nature!
I hope you enjoy the World Cup, and I hope I can learn to enjoy it as well!
Thank you for your kind reply, my friend.
Whatever baseball is, it’s not a chess match. It’s who has the best pitchers that game.
