France won in Russia. There’s gotta be some conspiracy involved IMO.

Do the no-go zones have their own teams?

Russia hacked the Croatian Football Federation, had the coaches emails.

Yeah, I keep seeing the propaganda that this is a swell argument for "diversity" like being good at something every third world shithole is good at means a fricking thing.
Yeah, please come mass murder and rape us, unskilled hostile fanatical retards. It's fricking bliss.

What is surprising is how many people don't realize that Russia is a Muslim country. Not entirely. But half way there.

Islam is the second most widely professed religion in Russia, encompassing somewhere between 7% and 15% of all Russians. Recognized under the law and by Russian political leaders as one of Russia's traditional religions, Islam is a part of Russian historical heritage, and is subsidized by the Russian government.[3] The position of Islam as an official Russian religion, alongside Orthodox Christianity, dates from the time of Catherine the Great, who sponsored Islamic clerics and scholarship through the Orenburg Assembly.[4]
The history of Islam and Russia encompasses periods of conflict between Muslims and the Orthodox majority, as well as periods of collaboration and mutual support. Robert Crews's study of Muslims living under the Tsar indicates that "the mass of Muslims" was loyal to that regime after Catherine, and sided with it over its Ottoman rival.[5] After the Tsarist regime fell, the Soviet Union introduced a policy of state atheism, which impeded the practice of Islam and led to the execution and suppression of various Muslim leaders. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, Islam regained a prestigious, legally recognized space in Russian politics. More recently, President Putin consolidated this trend, subsidizing the creation of mosques and Islamic education, which he called an "integral part of Russia's cultural code",[6], encouraging immigration from Muslim-majority former Soviet bloc states, and prosecuting what the Russian state considers to be criminal anti-Muslim hate speech, such as caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad.[7]

Very nice. I've been all over France, but Lille is one spot I've yet to make it to.
Now get off of TD. It's almost midnight over there, and you still have a lot of drinking left to do

Fun fact: The University of Notre Dame was started by the French.
