In my ever going quest to educate, this round you will learning about how tall the tallest building in each country is. Your welcome
Portland Hearts 5 (204.5ft) v. Richmond Kickers 1 (449ft)
After four loses in a row, with the last one being a disgusting 5-1 defeat on the road, the Hearts stem the blood with a solid victory back at Fort Fitzy. Though the score is solid, the team looked lacking for the entire first half (where it was tied 1-1) and into the second. Then they got 3 goals in 12 minutes to put things to bed. While the victory is good, big questions remain unanswered and new questions arise. For example, is their girlfriend drama that it splitting the team and hampering connectivity? (A friend’s brother’s colleague’s sister’s friend is friends with a woman how is dating one the players, and she says there is drama!) Also, why do we look like the entire team rather be anywhere else than on the field for an entire half? Why does Wrongy Wrong have to score? Will we get better? Is the goal we let up one of the worst you have ever seen? (The answer is yes, see below). I know we all have been hoping for better, but maybe this is the spark?
Group B – 3 pm
Swiss 2 (673ft) v. Canada 1 (1,153ft) – Canada shoulda/coulda/woulda tied it.
B&H 3 (564ft) v. Qatar 1 (988ft) – B&H goal 1 was very nice (Borat voice), the rest of the goals were pretty bad.
Bottom line: Swiss lead the group, then Canada, and B&H will most likely get through
Group C – 6 pm
Morocco 4 (820ft) v. Haiti 2 (161ft) – Haiti went up 1-0! Haiti’s goalie was playing hero. Haiti goal #2 was a rocket! And they went up 2-1! Morocco tied it before the 1st half ended. Morocco then showed their strength in the second but didn’t take the lead until the 77th.
Scotland 0 (417ft) v. Brazil 3(965ft) – woof, not the way you want to get through to the next round, the Brazilian redeemer (aka Jesus) with a shutout
Bottom line: Brazil lead, Morocco second, and Scotland will most likely get through
Group A – 9 pm
S. Africa 1 (768 ft tallest building in Africa from 2019-22) v. S. Korea 0 (1819 ft tallest building in OECD) – South Africa wins and take second place in the group! WOW! If you wrote them off you look so dumb right now. S. Korea not looking so hot and now have to wait to see if they got through. Yikes.
Czechia 0 (364 ft) v. Mexico 3 (1002 ft)
Bottom line: Mexico lead, S. Africa second place, S. Korea maybe gets through?
However, today we flush the following teams goodbye:
