The local signings and brothers being on the team and fanbase have really drove me in.

Spain vs Portugal in the Round of 16… yeah I’m stressed 😭🇪🇸

Last time they met was the 2025 Nations League final: 2-2, and Portugal beat Spain on penalties. So yeah… I’m not trying to see this go to pens again.

Spain looked great after that 3-0 win, but Portugal is the exact kind of team that can turn one mistake into chaos.

Every club has one game where they had it won and then somehow gave it away in stoppage time. Mine still haunts me a bit if I'm honest. Curious what game does that to you, doesn't have to be your own team either, could be one you watched as a neutral and just felt bad for everyone involved.

Personally it’s Olise for me and it’s not even close, just cause yamal is younger doesn’t mean he’s better. Definitely has a higher ceiling potential cause of his age but he hasn’t put up Olise numbers this season. 🤷🏾 what’s your thoughts though?

everyone outside Spain fixates on the big two but there's so much character in the rest of the league that gets ignored. which club do you think deserves way more attention for how they play or what they represent, and what should casual fans actually know about them before they write the league off as a two team race.

Two games in, how are we feeling about Spain?
0-0 vs Cape Verde
4-0 vs Saudi Arabia
Uruguay still to play

I’m happy with the response after the opening draw, but I’m still curious what everyone thinks.

Most clubs rely heavily on TV revenue especially the PL-clubs. Real Madrid for example only has 14% of their income coming from TV-money while 43% comes from marketing. Is this the future of football business and the only chance clubs have to fight back against the heavy tv-money Premier League is generating?
