Thanks for the education.
I thought there were more.
I need to stay in my lane.

Go USA!!




Technically we have more dual nats, but Pepi, Pulisic, and Gio were born and grew up here and are American as it gets even though they had options thanks to their family.

Last World Cup I had a co-worker from Kenya. He said, we won’t be any good, all our best players play for France
Well, he was lying to you. For one, Kenya has never made the world cup. Secondly, France's black players are descendant of French speaking African countries which Kenya is not.

To be specific I think he said it was Euro countries but I thought he mentioned France. And since I’m being fact checked, I think it was World Cup in 2014 or 2018. Maybe.

Kenya already dominates long distance running. They don't need to dominate soccer as well

I’m not a soccer fan. I really thought that was Russell Crowe.

I still fall for it for a split second every time. Like “oh no dude is fricked up.” Then I remember that’s just something you do in soccer.

So as I randomly try to gather info so I can get interested in all this, I see that the main tiebreaker in the group stage is NOT head to head matchup but instead goal differential?

Seems odd, but I kinda get it because it will make more Game 3's in a group relevant.

Do I have this right?

No. It’s head to head. Thats why Mexico already won their group despite the fact SK can still get 6 points.

It used to be the other way
