Maybe, because its one each 4 years, and all the teams are pretty bad so the winner is almost random, meaning the less sucky one in 4 summer friendlies in a row.

>>76837062

1978 ofc. Peru cucked themselves to 6-0 under pressure of Videla to have Argentina advance.

>>76839221
this is kinda true, which is why teams with a strong core are at an advantage. germany always did well with a strong core (kaiserslautern, then bayern), so did spain (barca) and the southern americans teams usually did better in the old days when many of their players didn't play al over europe in 200 different teams.

>>76839431
>this delusion
Give us one team which wasn't made of GOATs and didn't deserve to win. I wait

>>76839445
Why would Peruvians fear Videla?

We didn't defeat Italy or Germany 6-0 so you could suspect, it was fucking Peru, we can totally defeat them 6-0 at home. We only needed 3 goals and scored 6

>>76839431
Next WC will have:

Germany, France, Brazil, Spain and maybe Argentina all which real chances of winning.

Now shut the fuck up.

>>76839480

Former Peruvian senator Genaro Ledesma has confirmed the shock result was agreed before the match by the dictatorships of the two countries.

Mr Ledesma, 80, made the accusations to Buenos Aires judge Noberto Oyarbide, who last week issued an order of arrest against former Peruvian military president Francisco Bermudez.

I'm not claiming you couldn't have qualified otherwise, but even back then it's kinda shitty that you already knew by how much you needed to beat Peru. Matches should have been played concurrently.

It seems that someone in Romenia is obsessed with World Cup, why tho?

>>76839480
the goalkeeper was literally argentinian

also in the final
>The start of the final was mired in some controversy, as the Dutch accused the Argentines of using stalling tactics to delay the match, that allowed tension to build in front of a hostile Buenos Aires crowd. In the first instance, the host team came out five minutes later after the audience was whipped into a frenzy. The Argentines also questioned the legality of a plaster cast on René van de Kerkhof's wrist, despite him having worn it in earlier games without objections which caused the Dutch to threaten to walk off the pitch. Ending up the Italian referee Sergio Gonella upheld the complaints and forced van de Kerkhof to apply extra bandage.[1][2][3] The Netherlands refused to attend the post-match ceremonies after the match ended.[4]

>>76839523
no proof? how comes the peruvians never talk about it? videla hasn't been a thing since the early 80s

>>76839221

Broke the nation too, was literally referred to as a national trauma for decades (especially because many oldtimers were still salty about the war so they saw that final as a sort of chance at revenge). It's only recently that people have gotten over it and are okay with germans again

If you are only concerned about the quality of play then club football beats the hell out of the WC.

However, what makes the World Cup exciting is that you can't buy a dream team, so the tournament gets way less predictable than, say, the Champions League.

Also, /int/ bantz is the best bantz.

Lol how dumb is this place? Casillas, Xavi, Iniesta, Puyol, Villa were all in their primes in 2010. If it had been held in 2008 when Torres was the best striker they would have scored even more.

>>76840159
I don't have a way to prove it, but I'm not that guy.

Cheating or not, Maradona is deliberately trying to reach the ball with an illegal body part. If the ref doesn't """see""" it, it's refball. There's no fucking excuse to not see that. It's not like a millimetric offside.

>>76837025

>>76840383

>>76840415
it is not refball if you are paying the ref to give you advantage, cheating, diving, fouling when the ref is not looking is just a part of the game.

>>76840673
then you're left with an inconsistent, unreliable sport, where you don't have the guarantee that the rules are enforced

and why is this bad? because a team could bribe the ref and then he easily gets away with it since "mistakes are part of the game"

because it is sneaky, you don't go on the back of the opponent before the match even starts to get an advantage.

>defending refball is hurting this sport's fair athletes and referess
defending VR is killing those athletes and referees, because it is one step closer to the complete automation of the sport, the sterilization of a rough sport, football is not tennis, it is played on the mud, on the street, and you are killing that culture

please clarify this point

>the complete automation of the sport
Fouls are subjective and will never be automated, so don't worry about that. VAR is there to give the ref a better perspective only.
On the other hand, handballs, offsides, balls crossing the line are a binary thing: they either happen or they don't. There's no middle ground.

VAR and goal line tec are not killing any culture. They're not killing your weekend peladinhas with your buddies. It's just making the sport, when played PROFESSIONALLY, more credible.

for me, obviously i am not some kind of Judge of Football, but i hate the corruption behind FIFA, CBF, the big guys who rule it, i think it is disgusting, Korea in 2002 was disgusting, Every libertadores refball is disgusting, because it is a political thing.

but when you have 11 players on each side, and 3-4 officials ruling, it is just a sport, diving, hitting the back of the ankle, trashtalking, it is all part of the sport.


>VAR and goal line tec are not killing any culture They're not killing your weekend peladinhas with your buddies. It's just making the sport, when played PROFESSIONALLY, more credible.

for americans and autistic germans, only, everyone in the world plays football, the only changes are made to try to tap in the american market or to satisfy some kind of obsession of having 100% control of the game

also i don't hate goal line, for me what a official can't possibly see with his eye should be automated, offside for examples shouldn't be put solely on the bandeirinha(not even sure how you guys call on portugal, or in english.) account

>>76842227
I understand your point now. There's no denying the organizations behind football are corrupt as fuck because this sport moves too much money. But that's a different subject.

And I don't think VAR is that harmful to the sport. The only thing I dislike about it is killing the momentum of a celebration. Like our disallowed goal against Mexico. But there was an offside so I cannot complain.

>bandeirinha
Assistant ref, linesman, line officer. Whatever.
We call him "fiscal de linha", "árbitro auxiliar", "bandeirinha" too. There's a lot of names for those guys.
