Just got off a plane after 8 hours with no internet did I miss anything big?

This is as beautiful a story that can be written knowing it doesn’t have a happy ending. Kudos, y‘all.
🇺🇸 Inside the USMNT's World Cup campaign 🔴 Pre-World Cup culture shock ⚪️ "Dreamy" group stage and behind the scenes look 🔵 Balo-gate controversy, Belgium crashout ❔ The aftermath Reporting over six weeks with @paultenorio.bsky.social @henrybushnell.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/athletic/742...
He looks like a Bond villain and you can’t convince me otherwise
Switzerland's coach looked like he should've been in charge of Colombia and vice versa
Somehow I ended up on threads again for a spell and discovered that Sydney Leroux is *destroying* the USMNT and, frankly, she’s right.
Infantino for sure called in the code red. He can’t have Messi AND Ronaldo out this early.
Someone give @rogbennett.bsky.social a big hug for all of us.
To quote Randy Quaid’s character in Days of Thunder, “We look like a monkey f*king a football out there.”
I liked World Cup coverage better when they didn’t have Tom Rinaldi spots tugging at my heartstrings.
Welp, we’re gonna be in London for England/Norway so … that’ll be an experience. 😳
Idk I feel like this game isn’t quite concacaffy enough yet
Well shit I’m gonna have to stay up for this one, aren't I?
The bizarre music mix and terrible production value of the Macy’s Fireworks on NBC is extremely apropos for the current moment in the United States. A mashup of Cotton Eyed Joe and This Land is Your Land is … a choice.
As @rogbennett puts it, Cape Verde is one of the most valiant performances in the history of the World Cup. The world will forever remember this team, this performance. Nothing but love and respect 🇨🇻
Cabo Verde, standing ovation. What a team. What a performance.
