    Btw, there will be watch threads for the Euros once they start in a week or so, just like what we did with the AFC / CAF cups. Tbh I probably should’ve done one for the gold cup earlier this year but tbh I forgot that I did it with the other cups lol. Also idk if the women’s Gold Cup counts as a top tier competition? It’s literally the first ever one :p

    Literal first touch for Hong Kong is a goal, you can’t make this up. Scoring two goals against Iran is insane.

    So I actually caught a match from The Soccer Tournament (withdrawal is real)…super fun watching Aguero and co get dunked on by a few amateur footballers.

      I watched Green Street for no other reason than there’s occasionally some football talk in between all the fighting. Maybe I’ll rewatch Ted Lasso…

        At least The Acolyte is up, but it’s weekly release. I’ve actually also been watching Battlestar Galactica since I’ve never watched it when it first aired. All the characters are such douchebags but the story drew me in, it’s like a space soap opera.

          I’ve heard people describe both BSG and Star Trek as that thing. I’m currently working my way through TOS and TNG (the greatest hits, at least), and it really does resemble some sort of sci-fi telenovela.

      Probably also based on previous form, he’s not done much this season. Personally I’m guessing Foden starts on the left anyway.
