No my last quote was I hope you make the final ...and then lose to farcical VAR call or lose in a penalty shoot out....and then English fans burn Abu Dhabi to the ground and get permanently banned from the World Cup ...

Not that much to ask ....

Overheard someone talking that Pele has Colon cancer and is close to death .....the greatest of all time

Just not good enough , close but not there yet , we need to re structure our junior soccer , it’s to much look after the all , but not look after the real talented kids , soccer clubs are stuck with this every one gets same game time every ones the same , this is the start of the crap , great talent held back by winging parents who have not so good kids expecting the same you can’t do it if you want to win , simple , i said It , I had to coach through it , these days the parents early got to much sway , soccer needs to look at league then they start to become champions

I read that on the internet about a week ago,i would describe very few people as sporting legends but he is one of them and the greatest soccer player of all time

Goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic was the hero, saving three penalties in the shootout, as Croatia edged past Japan with a 3-1 victory to reach the World Cup quarter-finals.

The Brazil players held up a banner to show support for Pele, who is currently in hospital.

Most Brazilian fans liked Garrincha more then Pele because he was more attractive, and better dribbler than Pele. To "jogo bonito" fans he is still one of the best dribblers ever.
He was born with one leg turned outwards and shorter by 6 cm, at the time classified by some doctors as a cripple 😡
To many, simply just an inspiration!
