Hey Hal, we still have prawns left over from the poutine, so I'll make a quick prawn, capers, sun-dried tomato, and ricotta fettuccine tonight.

I'm shocked by those two results. Who would have thought both Germany and the Netherlands would be out so early...

Damn! I didn't even cook my favourite pork schnitzel with butter potatoes, red cabbage, mushroom and onion sauce recipe.

Are you a chef mate? I love your posts.

WOW!!
MOROCCO BEATS THE NETHERLANDS ON PENALTIES TO CONTINUE THEIR WORLD CUP JOURNEY

Heartbreak for the Netherlands
They're out of the 2026 World Cup, after losing to Morocco on penalties in the last 32.

2026: Eliminated on penalties
2022: Eliminated on penalties ̶
2̶0̶1̶8̶:̶ ̶N̶o̶t̶ ̶q̶u̶a̶l̶i̶f̶i̶e̶d̶ ̶
2014: Eliminated on penalties
2010: Eliminated in the final after extra time

They have not lost a game inside 90 minutes at a World Cup since 2006

The Netherlands were just playing for a draw in extra time. You're gambling going to a penalty shootout and it cost them.

I think Germany, Netherlands and Brazil all underestimated their opponents today.
A timely lesson in respecting your opposition.

THE FOUR-TIME WORLD CUP WINNERS, GERMANY, ARE ELIMINATED IN THE ROUND OF 32 BY PARAGUAY ON PENALTIES
The first upset of the knockout stage

 

[tiger_one]

Germany had never lost a World Cup penalty shootout,
......... until today

 

[tiger_one]

Both Germany and Netherlands' World Cup ended after missing three penalties in a penalty shootout

Friday just might be the best chance the Socceroos will ever have to win a World Cup knockout match

It should be a very competitive game between 2 evenly matched sides.
Selah the major difference.
