Yes. Who would have believed it?
I do hope they win. They are most likely dead if they lose.
Their families and themselves will face retribution if they lose.
I think I’m with you on this one.
Maybe Blinken has told the US team to throw the game
Nope. I hope Iran gets humiliated in every way.
Iran vs Rainbowistan? Hmmm
I’m with you. There’s a vast difference between the people in Iran and their fanatical government.Eventually they’ll kick those scum in bathrobes into their graves.
If Iran wins, the players are off the hook and will be treated as heroes.
If the USA wins, about 14 people in the US will care and the Iranian players will be punished by their terrorist government.
Go Iran.
I’m not ‘rooting’ for anyone, because soccer is gay.
I enjoy soccer and would have been cheering on the USA, but due to the woke priorities the team has displayed, I’ve been rooting against them. I have a hard time cheering on Iran, but maybe a scoreless tie would be my preferred outcome; thus, neither side has much of anything to cheer about.
Another Zero to Zero would be good. Unless you can get a minus 1 somehow.
That's the women's team. The men's team tend to keep their mouths shut about stuff.
If we're to harshly criticize athletes that use that moment to virtue signal, shouldn't we as passionately support the ones who do the right thing?
Let the left be the only ones teaching people it's impossible to please them.
The diehard progressive men’s USA team should lose on purpose to protect the Iranian players’ families. Either they care (as don’t all progressives?) or they are just normal hypocrites.
I don’t think the US team realizes they got their lunch eaten yesterday. The team captain’s response to the taunting was apologetic and groveling. typical snowflake.
They probably think it’s just another game. While the iranians are fired up. I think Iran will win easily because of this.
I have always rooted for the Iranian people against their religion and government. This particular team has more moral conviction than the USA team.
The US has a soccer team?????
Was discussing this with my son’s yesterday. These Iranian guys face a very likely death or at least torture if they loose. I’ll bet their families, are in fact, under control of the government too. My oldest hopes we drop 15 goals on ‘em. My youngest would flop to help them. I’d play my game and let the chips fall. Maybe they’d be more useful as martyrs? I suspect if you put a rifle in theirs hands, chances are pretty good they’d pull the trigger on me and mine, so there’s that.
You make a good point. Other than that, I have no opinion on the outcome. Maybe someone on here will post the score (0-0 with a kickoff?) and then we can speculate about the ramifications?
Since you put it that way, and I think soccer sucks, and the American team sucks. I say; “Go Iran!”
