That's to say, as a team I really thought they were the best. The best doesn't always win a tournament though because you have to best on "that" day vs "that" team and they weren't.

This method works like a charm with Spanish broadcasts. My flatmate and I would leave the TV on soccer on Saturdays & Sundays in Buenos Aires, but at a low volume, then go about our days: Time spent on the computer, doing laundry, making shit in the kitchen. Then you hear a constant note 🎵 lasting for 10+ seconds. Like a horn in the Alps. This is a call to the TV to watch 8 different replays of the goal that was just scored, before leaving the room to pick up where you left off

August 9, 20241 yr jesus. Euro champs are adding depth with their u-23 team. gonna be formidable when the World Cup comes here in '26.
August 9, 20241 yr So, I am watching but find it very difficult. Spain flopped three times in the first 1:15 of the game. I have started to call stoppage time at the end of halves “flopping time.” In this game it’s +7. It’s so frustrating to watch.

August 9, 20241 yr I started watching at the end of the 1st half and it was already 3-1 Spain, but France has been controlling shit since I've been watching. That spanish keeper is having a game.

That spanish keeper is having a game. I do NOT want France to win simply because I do not want US Soccer to use coaching France to a gold medal as an excuse to hire Thierry Henry. Do not want him as the permanent USMNT manager.
