I said before the game, I thought England would have to be offensively aggressive to have an opportunity. They became complacent after going ahead.

Something you see with American football where a team that's leading will try to take the air out of the ball and run the clock out. Countless times that strategy fails.

Although it almost worked, it was pretty clear that England was cooked once Argentina scored the tying goal. It is very tough to try to restart playing offensive football once you have packed it in for 35 minutes.

I think the odds were good something like this was going to happen. It was unplanned, as the player grabbed the banner from a fan in the stands. Or at least they say it was unplanned. 🤷‍♂️

I am very concerned about this game being played under severe AQI conditions. Perhaps rain and wind will move in to clear the atmosphere. Don't want to see the health of players and spectators jeopardized.

The game is on Sunday, and the Air Quality Alert in NEW. JERSEY. o_O is currently set to expire tonight at midnight. They are also calling for rain and thunderstorms tomorrow (Saturday). Hopefully, this all means better conditions come Sunday.
