In Reply to: Did anybody here watch the World Cup Final? posted by UCLA73 on July 13, 2025 at 16:45:45
It was the final of the FIFA money-grab “Club World Cup.” This was a tournament FIFA made up to make money forcing club players to extend their seasons another 6 weeks. It is only slightly less prestigious than the Europa Conference League title. Real World Cup competitions involve national teams.
It was great to see other club teams forced to play more games and increase the work load on their players with a new real season starting in 6 weeks. The competition was played to mostly empty stadiums. I couldn’t be arsed to watch any of it.
Chelsea is still hot garbage.
