[The Human Santapede]

Are you doing a World Cup sweep??

Yes, but much nearer the time. :laugh:

[The Human Santapede]

Suspect that both Canada and Mexico drawn first lol

[The Human Santapede]

And then USA LOL

[The Human Santapede]

My god get on with it already. This is giving pre 2019 Eurovision score flashbacks.

[Parmy]

Jesus Christ. I thought they were making the whole draw.

[The Human Santapede]

Jesus Christ. I thought they were making the whole draw.

Same. :joker:

[The Human Santapede]

It’s been a whole hour of pointless waffle so far.

[The Human Santapede]

I swear to god if that presenter keeps calling it soccer. :mad:

[The Human Santapede]

I love Lauryn Hill but why have they wheeled her out for this. This is not the crowd for her. :joker:

[The Human Santapede]

But now it feels like Eurovision. :joker:

[The Human Santapede]

The old man crowd just sat in silence hahahaha. Such an odd choice of performer for this.

[Festive Friend]

This is Embarrassing

[Christmas Dynasnow]

[The Human Santapede]

For the love of God just get on with the draw already.

[Parmy]

[Christmas Dynasnow]

Rio is on and already i have lost 10 braincells

[Zizu]

I love Lauryn Hill but why have they wheeled her out for this. This is not the crowd for her. :joker:


I thought she’d died ages ago !!!

Haven’t heard her name mentioned in about 30 years

[The Human Santapede]

I was hoping this would be done by now as my OH is nearly home and won’t want to watch. :mad:

[The Human Santapede]

Also why do we have Kevin and Heidi presenting this. :joker:

[The Human Santapede]

Why are they bringing out basketball and superbowl players for football lol

[Zizu]

Rio is on and already i have lost 10 braincells


Wait till they bring on this lot


Notice one token guy for women’s football ( 2025 competition) yet the men’s game is probably 40% female pundits and co commentators

Donald was the highlight in the draw. A beacon of peace, glad he was rightfully recognised by the entire world

Let’s be real. It was just as cringey and pointless as the majority of the event. All they needed to do was draw teams and they dragged it out with shite and waffle.

The man has saved millions of lives, he even admitted so

Irrespective of if that’s true or not (I don’t care to check that this time of night), FIFA didn’t need to create a cringey award to add to their already dire event. We are there for the drawing of football teams.

[Merry Mockmas]

Gianni Infantino has got to be one of the biggest weasels in Human history.

There will never be a better World Cup Final game than Qatar

That tournament was a farce from start to finish.

[Good King Glennceslas]

An “award” that was made up? Such a win I guess :skull:

Imagine gushing over that complete farce though. It’s really embarrassing.

Sadly yes.

Even though he has divided everyone for a decade.:laugh:

[Cherry Christmas]

And then USA LOL

The hosts always play the first game of the tournament

[Cherry Christmas]

The best bit was the Village People, gosh they have aged well:dance:

[Nicky91]

The hosts always play the first game of the tournament

yes



i'm pleased for Australia with that draw, USA, Paraguay and hopefully Papa Luce's Romania then :fc:

[Nicky91]

poor england to get overrun by the LEGEND that is Ivan Perisic and his wonderful Croatia

:laugh:

[The Human Santapede]

The hosts always play the first game of the tournament

I know that but the whole spectacle of them drawing out the hosts from random balls to just draw those 3. :laugh:

[Nicky91]

I know that but the whole spectacle of them drawing out the hosts from random balls to just draw those 3. :laugh:

the hosts were already locked into their groups i thought?


and Mexico out of those three has the honours for the first game of the tournament

[Nicky91]

not exactly a easy group either for Mexico


we know South Korea are capable of delivering upsets, South Africa aren't that bad either, and who knows what will come out of the play off



i think the group with Canada is gonna potentially turned upside down, especially if Italy wins the play off ticket



good draw for New Zealand either, you should never underestimate the all blacks tbh, in their debut world cup, they had 3 draws, and now they'll face Belgium, Iran, Egypt, could've been way worse for them against more difficult opponents

The FIFA World Cup match in Seattle on June 26 had been designated as a “Pride Match” before the fixtures were decided. Now we know the teams who will play in it… Egypt and Iran.
