Not really, palestinians for ex. also claim someone stole their land, many other wars have the same basic motive as well. The main difference is that the ukrainian goverment has more consensus in the world about being the legitimate owner of the disputed territories.

The 2024 copa america will be hosted in the United States. The 10 Conmebol member teams will participate together with the top 6 teams from the 2023-24 Concacaf Nations League for a total 16 teams. Also, the 2024 women's Gold Cup will have 4 south american teams participating (Brazil, Colombia, Argentina and Paraguay). It'll be 8 Concacaf teams + 4 Conmebol for a total 12 participants.

So the joint NL with Conmebol was already discarded?

That was the same draw of the previous cycle with Korea and Chile. Do they just re-use the same always? When was this confirmed?

Why are you all talking like the OQT draw is done? I know there always was a serpentine system distribution for the teams that take a place there through WCh but what about the rest? If it's done where I can see it? There is nothing on Wikipedia.

Take that Qatar, nobody beats us 7 times in a row.

Quarterfinals v v v v It'll be three huge blowouts and one 50/50, great advertisement for the sport

Lost to Korea, lmao I don't know what to say. Taking 5 goals from teams like France and Korea is embarassing.

Muy bien teniendo en cuenta que se les va siempre algún jugador todos los años. Ojalá sigan todos los que están hasta 2024.

- Many older players retired and the younger ones are very mediocre. - The coach is just some former assistant they hired because it was cheap. - they barely play games outside big tournaments (this is a perennial problem though). Nobody cares about this sport anymore. There was one good generation (the Youth 2007/Juniors 2009) and they did the best they could but nothing really changed.

Most impressive team so far is England. I think this is the strongest they have looked since 2012. I knew beforehand that Netherlands was in a "mirage" pool with extremely weak teams... Chile weakest team in the WC, Malaysia typical defensively weak asian team, NZ a declining team. The QF match will be a drastic spike in difficulty for them.

can't qualify in men's football.

I missed a prediction for the first time in this WC and it was bittersweet since I didn't get the prediction points nor an amazing win for our team... was really close but Australia saved the draw.

Unlike the women's, things are so predictable in men's hockey right now... This group stage literally has only 4 games in which I have any kind of doubt of who the winner will be: ENGvIND RSAvFRA GERvBEL KORvJPN That's it, every other game already has a winner set before the start.

His team sport predictions are the following:

Time to see if the dutch men can also play handball (probably yes).

This scoring system for the hockey contest is terrible. The winner will be whoever made the most random guesses. Unlike football, a close match can easily finish 4-3 as much as it can finish 1-0. Nobody would ever think of using this system for Ice hockey... I don't know on what basis the previous system (2014-2018) has been changed and I'm being refused an answer
