You don't remember what happened in 2022, do you?

Yes i do, Spain dominated everyone but could not finish the matches so ended up loosing. At times the better team looses due to missing chances.

But seriously, all jokes aside, who would've thought that Cape Verde would stop Spain and defeat Uruguay?

Not that Cape Verde will certainly defeat Uruguay because the match hasn't ended yet, but you have to admit that they have surprised many of us.

With 4 points, Cape Verde will advance to the next round.

Ghalenoei says he was not happy with his substitutes. Well, you made them, lol.

But this suggests we will not see Jahanbakhsh in the last game.

the real MOTM was Jeremy Doku's wife, who gave birth to their baby today, and that's why Doku had to leave the squad to return to Belgium. he was their star player and was a real loss for Belgium.

If they are looking for names for their newborn, I would suggest Alireza.

What? In the past three months, Spain have failed to beat Turkey, Egypt, Iraq, and Cape Verde.

They defeated Turkiye 0-6 in Turkiye less than 9 months ago in a World Cup qualifying game. They topped their World Cup qualifying group without any trouble as well. They won the European Championship 2 years ago.

The Iraq game was a meaningless friendly.

Cape Verde was a freak result which likely will have no bearing on Spain being top of their group.

That Saudi defence was amateur level, not fair that they had to face the Spaniards ;

Today against Spain yes, not against Uruguay a few days earlier.

No idea why people feel the need to downplay Spain. Is is just because they defeated KSA today or what is going on?

Personally, I have never liked Jahanbakhsh. He's always been an overrated player. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed watching him play. I'm sure if it ever happened, it was either in World Cup 2014 or even befor that.

Before I log off. Good luck to Egypt tonight.

Whatever the result of this match now, I would not want to be facing Cape Verde in my final group match knowing I have to win!
