#Football/ #soccer: Every country in #Europe says it will boycott future #WorldCup tournaments if part of #FIFA is sold to private investors. (Women's #FIFAWorldCup is coming next year)

That is, every independent country in Europe except #VaticanCity and #Monaco, who aren't FIFA members anyway.

Donald Trump has slapped a new set of #tariffs on #Canada that could very well be the result of a snub he received from #Spanish goalkeeper #UnaiSimón at the #FIFAWorldCup while #Canadian Prime Minister @[email protected] was EMBRACED. 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 ⚽️

The 'Hug Snub' Tariffs: Trump ...

Now that the dust has settled regarding the #WorldCup, my candidates for #BallonDOr, in order:

1. Rodri 🇪🇸
2. Lamine Yamal 🇪🇸
3. Kane 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
4. Mbappe 🇫🇷
5. Lionel Messi 🇦🇷

Given the importance of the #FIFAWorldCup, I expect either Rodri or Lamine Yamal to get it above everyone else.

Menos mal que no hay que politizar el fútbol, porque viendo esta portada, parece que haya sido el Borbón el que ha ganado el partido él solo. Si en lugar de él, llega a ser Pedro Sánchez el que levanta la copa, tendríamos hoy a mucha gente (incluidos los de este pseudopanfleto) rebuznando como bestias.

Analysis of the xG (expected goals) created and conceded per game for each R16 team, along with Germany and the Netherlands (R32).

The statistics suggest that 🇪🇸 Spain's World Cup victory was driven primarily by defensive dominance rather than overwhelming attacking output. Clearly, they had the best balance between attacking output and defensive solidity (both efficient and defensive) throughout the tournament. They were technically the most complete team and thoroughly deserved to be crowned World Champions.🌎🥇🏆

• Lowest xG conceded in the tournament: 0.30 per match.

• Highest xG difference among all semi-finalists: +1.65.

• Held both 🇫🇷 France (0.31 xG) and 🇦🇷 Argentina (0.22 xG), the other finalists and one of the strongest attacking teams, to almost no chance in the knockout rounds.

While 🇫🇷 France were the most prolific attacking side and 🇧🇷 Brazil (eliminated in R16) led the tournament in xG created, 🇪🇸 La Roja consistently controlled matches at both ends of the pitch. Their ability to suppress opponents' chance creation was the defining statistical feature of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

At the same time, it gets proven that #Argentina will always have a problem with a red shirt on finals:

- #Spain 2026
- #Chile 2015
- Chile 2016

Remember guys, always have an alternative red shirt around, just in case.
