Creepy.

He didn't want Infantino to take all the limelight I see.

How sad

Damn, that is horrible news to hear after she experienced one of the biggest joys of her life in her chosen profession.

They have released the Newcastle one but only for UK. Wouldn’t be surprised if they do the same for this. Pretty stupid if people pay for their services and can’t get access to content they want.

It's definitely available over here. Looking at it on Prime now.

Sounds like he's loving it in Miami. Turned down the sportswashers for a billion over 3 years. After the WC last year and the way Messi has gone about his career there's not even an argument anymore over Messi vs Ronaldo anymore. Class act.

Yeah looks like they finally released it now. Pretty weird to do so after the first two eps. Must have been a lot of people pushing for it.

I mean let’s not drink the guys bath water (for his off field choices). He’s been happy to take Saudi money.

It wasn't just him though. They got Biscuits and Alba

Any chance Richarlison will score as many goals for Spurs as he has for Brazil so far?

How is Richarlison the bad guy here? Another player just randomly starts calling him shit and he’s the bad guy. Unless I’ve missed something I think we can cease the football tribalism here.. seems a pretty obvious ‘who’s in the wrong’ case.

Spain's Hermoso Defends Rubiales Kiss At Women's World Cup

Spain midfielder Jenni Hermoso defended Spanish football federation president Luis Rubiales after he came under fire for kissing her on the lips following the team's Women's World Cup victory on Sunday.

She’s gay. I suspect her first comment was tongue in cheek with that in mind.

Antonio started it last season. He was on a podcast and unprovoked he and Callum Wilson had this to say.

Antonio and Wilson could barely contain their laughter. "He's scored four times this season," Antonio began. "Three of the times he's been offside [and] he's taken his top off four times this season." Wilson added: "He's got four yellows – he's almost on a suspension."

Richarlison did respond on socials asking both how many WC goals they had.

Now again this season Antonio has unprovoked had another crack. Weird bloke.

Just seems nasty to be honest.

Would he kiss a male player like that? Would you kiss anyone like that at any place of employment?

Antonio did say it was nothing more than banter, but was told by Paqueta, Richarlison took it personally.

I think the latter just doesn't help himself with his demeanor more than anything really.

Richarlison and you crying about it has given me a fantastic signature idea.

I mean, surely the hero from Brazil destroys the shit striker from Jamaica this season?

Odd response but you do you.

Odd response but you do you.

I thought the odd response was sticking behind a player that has proven to be a giant knob, as was pointed out. But as you say each to their own

Sure, I mean who among us has no skeletons in the closet.

As Apollo said above though. Randomly mocked by another professional, and a shit one at that.

yeah, don't disagree and more unnecessary than anything but it making our national news was also unnecessary when in full context/quotes it was a non-issue. just a click baiting/faux outrage generator in the end.

Completely different culture. I know a lot of people who think the whole kissing on each cheek is creepy, however it is completely normal in Spain, France, Italy etc.
