I guess this was to be expected:

World Cup beer sales hopping for host cities across U.S.

The World Cup has been a bonanza for beer in the U.S., with host cities reporting a 14% bump in sales at bars, restaurants and stadiums in the first four weeks of the tournament.

I didn't know what to expect in this 3rd place game. However, a 4-0 lead by England in the 1st half was not anything that I contemplated.

Frankreich have sucked balls today.

What are the chances that Teuchel will park the bus? Will the Fédération Française de Football make them row home?

….into their goal today.

 

[LionJim]

Barcola is pretty good. 4-2.

 

[KingLando]

France cared about this game as much as I'd expect them to

Frankreich sucking less in the 2nd half.

 

[Bones80]

France seems to care now 4-3 at 70

 

[manatree]

This is nuts.

 

[Tgar]

Who knew this would be this much fun? Not Tgar. This is outstanding.

 

[BobPSU92]

Back and forth. Both teams missed great chances within a minute.

Tuchel needs to eat a burger or five.

Thank God Saka scored again. It would be a crime to have to go through Extra Time.

 

[BobPSU92]

I could watch these teams all day. Damn, they’re good.

 

[LionJim]

Dang.

 

[LionJim]

Fun.

 

[Tgar]

Just a recap……

 

[Chumboshifko1]

England just pounded France!!

 

[BobPSU92]

Soccer sucks. No scoring.

 

[LionJim]

Just a recap……

Tgar speaks the truth.

 

[KingLando]

Kudos to France for fighting back but there was zero effort early
Let's go Spain!
