We have great examples of "they made a lot of of friends at the World Cup", such as Cape Verde this year and Morocco in 2022.

But is there a case to be made for a team that lost a lot of friends? A team that a lot neutral fans used to like, but did not cover themselves in glory on and off the pitch at a given tournament?

I think this Argentina team is a perfect candidate. Given the widespread perception that their win over Egypt was unfair and, more importantly, how they conducted themselves in the final, I think a lot neutrals soured on them. Perhaps permanently. Thoughts?

After France's second goal against Morocco, the commentator said "Cometh the hour, cometh the men. Mbappe and Dembele."

I'd never heard "cometh the men" before.

During the second half of extra time of Netherlands - Morocco, as Morocco had an extended period of possession and the Netherlands continued to defend deep, the commentator said the Dutch are playing standoffishly. I'd never heard of that and felt like she used the word incorrectly. Am I wrong?
