I'm calling the Group stage now with the quarter final line up as follows
Spain vs France & Belgium
Americas A vs Wales
Rep Ireland vs Scotland
Africa vs Rest of Europe A
I'm sure you can all agree there are some SUMPTUOUS ties there
just over a day left in this, when the quarter finals will begin
current standings
1. Spain 30
2. Rest of Europe A 14
------------------------------
3. Americas B 0
I've just added Lualua to the glorious African bench
If there had been room in the tournament I was going to add a "capped England side" but tbh I found it too boring (they probably would have won it)
I'd love to spend time in that Americas B dresssing room. Tarrico and Arismendi constantly going mental, Locadia and Agustein DJing in the corner, the American goalies and Rougier praying together. Sam Adekugbe crying. Glorious
The Spain vs Rest of Europe is an early contender for match of the tournament. I feel de Zerbi would have too much NOUS for Garcia and I think this could be the decider in this group with both sides giving Americas B a good thrashing.
Does make me feel like de Zerbi could have turned Casper...
