Croatia 3-Canada 1 in the 70th minute.

If Canada lose, they will be eliminated.

I think this Croatian team is easily the best team in the group.

Which is shocking to me considering Belgium has been the better team in UEFA for most of the last 4 years.

Croatia 4 - Canada 1
Be proud Canada. You guys tried your best and now you can look towards the Gold Cup next summer. Keep supporting your national team Canada. Only positives ahead.

@Wakey, if Messi comes to Inter Miami (MLS), will you tune into MLS next season?

I’m eating this for lunch while watching Spain vs Germany. I have heritage from both countries, so I’m conflicted about who I want to win.

I only watch Premier League Buzzy. I’m sure MLS is on some channel but not sure which.
I watch Premier League because Leeds are in it. Therefore I will watch other matches as well in Premier League but the only matches I have to watch are the Leeds ones- can’t miss them.
Don’t watch any Euro leagues for example.
If I lived in the States I’d support a team and watch them and maybe go to games like I do here in U.K. when I get tickets (I’m hoping the Leeds stadium expansion happens next few years when 49ers complete the buy out- there’s a near 20000 waiting list for season tickets- but the stadium expansion will only happen if Leeds don’t get relegated- we are hoping our very own ‘Ted Lasso’ does the business)).

Well, it won’t be on tv so…..

The 49ers haven’t done much for the NFL in a while, so I wouldn’t get my hopes up with the new ownership. American owners seem to be overly criticized in England.

There are a lot of American owners now- seen as a good investment I think as TV rights just go up a lot every time.
Glaisyers have always been accused of loading debt, and the Liverpool owner as well as Glaisyers got hammered for their short lived (2 day) signing up to the failed European Superleague idea- hated by the fans and overturned within days.
The Chelsea owner seems quite popular so far I think but they are performing badly currently so that could change quickly.

Lost in the conference championship game last year and in the Superbowl two years ago.

Definitely outclassed in this one. Should have had a better result against Belgium and we'll see how they play on Dec 1st.

Second place means nothing to NFL fans. It’s Super Bowl wins or bust.

Not completely true but to say the 49ers haven't done much in awhile is a bit of a stretch.

Does every fan want their team to win the Super Bowl but most are realistic about their chances and evaluate a season more logically.

At least the fans I know; I won't try to speak for everyone.

I’m hoping 49ers will pump lots of cash into Leeds.

I saw a piece on the Levi stadium and it looked very nice.

No one knows exactly what their plans are with Leeds though. And they won’t have the funds of the Qatari’s/ Saudis etc have and will put into Man City and Newcastle. But I’m hopeful 49ers will put their money where their mouth is. The rumour now is 49ers will buy it out maybe January.

This is true for most small markets but living in major media market maybe skewing my view since if the NY Giants make the SB and don’t win the NY media will highly criticize them. To put that in perspective for @Wakey, NY/CA fans are most closely relatable to Manchester/London soccer fans. 49ers ownership is good but I don’t see them putting oil money into the team. I do see them spending the same amount on Leeds as much as they have on the 49ers in the last 5 years in one. Investment is needed on a faster timeline in the PL vs the NFL.
