Edit: this is the first soccer game I’ve watched. Can someone explain why the clock is ticking up as opposed to, well, down??


I wish the NFL did something similar to make the games shorter, but the NFL and networks would make less money because of the necessary ad breaks to keep the enterprise of football alive.

I don’t really watch soccer at all normally but it’s just something about rooting for your country to beat other counties that fires me up every World Cup

That’s what they count on to make money. Nationalism.

I have not seen any.
Definitely no "End Racism" markings along the edges of the playing field, a la our beloved NFL.

They have definitely put the brakes on outright flopping though since you can be yellow carded for it. I think the foul term is 'insinuating' though I'm not certain. In any event, there is far less than in the past. That said, this sport needs an extra ref like the NBA to get a better, more contemporaneous look at what's actually happening out there.
