Soccer. A game played by conquered nations.

Soccer. The only game where non-fans whine more about it than fans.

Tsk tsk, such an Anglocentric provincial you are. It's futbol.

I find it refreshing that the United States, whose sports fans collectively yawn at this sport, is beating the national team of our presumably friendly neighbor, whose rabid fans once chanted "Osama! Osama!" while playing the United States. Classy.

Whine?

I was just pointing out a simple observation.

The better statement would be: "The only game where players whine more than fans."
