Spain are pummelling Croatia right now but their backline is a sieve. Can't see them winning the tournament, but they have amazing talent. Lamine Yamal was involved in two of the goals, and he only turns 17 next month.
Copa America starts next week too, I can see it being very entertaining.

We should discuss the soccer player gay rumors in this thread. Sometimes I think the goalkeeper from Germany is gay. Who else? There is a lot of bearding and PR children going on here too. On LSA someone once said that in the NFL, only the guys who pretend to be married and have kids get the big brand deals. I don't think it's different with the soccer stars.

True, though it's also possible to be high profile and yet keep their relationships quiet for whatever reason. Mbappe for most part has managed this - though it'll be interesting to see how he does at Real Madrid - and Jules Kounde is another who comes to mind. Ronaldo didn't seem to care much until certain stories started emerging - see below - and he suddenly hooked up with his current girlfriend. By the way, he got a lot of homophobic abuse from the Spanish crowds about that time.

R9, Ronaldo has managed to avoid marriage. I think European footballers are allowed to be more like rockstars and less like ârole models.â

CRISTINA Ronaldo was called gay by KOKE in 2016. Later he was accused of rape by a woman. It was later claimed to be a false accusation. I think this was a PR move because a false rape allegation from a woman implies he is hetero which is less career damaging than coming out as gay.
From the article I linked:
Spanish radio station Cadena COPE claims to have overheard a conversation between Ronaldo and his teammates in the locker room after the match. Cadena COPE is one of the most popular radio stations in Spain.
According do Cadena COPE, Ronaldo told teammates that Koke called him a âfaggotâ on the pitch, and that is what sparked the confrontation. He allegedly told his teammates that responded to Koke, âa faggot, yes. But a rich one.â You can see Cadena COPEâs full account of the conversation at The Sun.
To be clear, Ronaldo did not seem to be making these comments with any intention that they would be broadcast publicly. Rather, he was talking with his teammates in a manner that clearly wasnât intended to be digested publicly. Cadena COPE decided to share the story publicly, so here we are.
by Anonymous | reply 12 | June 15, 2024 6:36 PM |
No-one claimed that the rape accusation was false aside from Ronaldo's legal team. The accuser still maintains his guilt. However, that's all been discussed in other threads.

âLance looked like the cat with the cream to be up close and personal with a hunk lusted after by the gay community.â The footballer recently became a father, although he raised eyebrows by opting to have the child, also named Cristiano, with a surrogate mother. The child is said to be in Portugal being cared for by Ronaldoâs family. Ronaldoâs love of fashion, accessories and grooming has made him the subject of gay rumours in the past and he has been voted a gay icon by several publications.

I didn't see what happened but I think although the game was stopped when Mbappe was injured, the referee didn't allow France to make their substitutions. Mbappe went back on the field to force the issue, otherwise they would be playing with 10 men until the next break in play.
The referee is Gil Manzano, one of La Liga's finest.

Interesting to hear Landon Donovan during the ENG-SUI match on how he thinks so many of the Usual Winners have an attitude of (I'm paraphrasing here), play safe and just don't lose and take your chances on penalty kicks at the end. He's not wrong -- I believe France has yet to score a goal that wasn't an opponent's own goal or a PK in open play.

[quote]England doesn't have a snowball's chance of beating Spain, who will steamroll England's sludgy, overly cautious play. As they should.
Spain beat Croatia comfortably, beat Italy by an own goal and Albania 1-0.
They beat Georgia comfortably, Germany at extra time and then France.
Theyâre playing more fluent and attacking football than England but still conceding goals.
Spain are the favourites but England are in their second consecutive final for a reason.

Even Scotland and Wales, those famous England enthusiasts?
Ukraine are supporting England, a couple of journalists in Kiev say itâs home team atmosphere.
And what of the Portuguese? Are they backing Spain?

r297 Scotland on England must be the most one sided sporting rivalry in the world. I've never come across an England fan who gives 2 shits about the Scottish team.

Yeah that meme is England Scotland personified. As long as Scottish folk have more passion for England losing than they do Scotland winning they will do fuck all in football.
As long as I've supported England the main hostility was towards Germany (the war, 1990) and Argentina (the Falklands, Maradona's handball, Beckham's red card) but Germany hate the Dutch more and Argentina hate Brazil more.

So? Shitting on each other after a match is fine. Making it your whole sporting personality for 90% of the year though comes across as whiny. I saw in Reddit there's a guy in Scotland whose been putting up the flag of whoever England is playing up on his house for the whole tournament meaning even while Scotland were still in he was more focused on being bitter on how well England were doing than Scotland crashing out.

I'm Scottish and don't have anything against the England team. Some of my family members support them because they're our neighbours, and did the same with Wales in the years they qualified.
That being said, I think Spain will win. They're the best team of the tournament. Germany was the second-best - shame those two met each other in the quarters.

You're right - just over the last couple of weeks the French people have looked at their own country and thought "At least our nationalism isn't as bad as the toxic English".
And what of Spain's toxic nationalism where the racist abuse directed at black players is only just being dealt with. This story is from last month. And they're the country that torture and kill bulls in the street for fun.
No one is saying England is perfect but the idea their fans are any worse than other nations doesn't know a thing about football.

R339 R344 There is something interesting about Spanish men (for the most part all of Spain, though Galician men are a different breed). Machismo, hyper-masculinity is obviously a thing, but there is also a "softness", a gentleness that can be mistaken as gay. Although, as a modern culture, Spain is one of the most gay-accepting countries. But mostly for "obvious or even fem gay men"... (lesbians are good to go). You can get mixed signals from some other straight men... or perhaps, the mixing up of signals is on my part. Friendly, smiling, affectionate, hugging, sloppy and funny loose-moraled drunk..."oh wait, you don't want me to fuck you? Oh, my bad!"
