This is how Spanish teams (club and international) have fared in Finals since 2000. Holy ****

Matt Crocker has probably already left about a dozen voicemails for Southgate.

I tell you what though, outside of Kane, the worst players on the park were Stones, Walker, Foden, and then Rodri got subbed at half time. Can anyone see a connection?

Almost as if Pep Guardiola is a better manager than Gareth Southgate.

Hopefully Bayern helps resolve that this coming season.

Lamal is the first Spanish player in history to record 4 assists in a European Championship or World Cup.

That's ok - I looked up and saw the officials getting medals - and thought no wonder they called the gaol on side...

That is insane. They got the perfect match up in the perfect location tonight.
Hopefully the game can semi live up to the hype.

England created less xG at Euro 2024 (6.43) than Croatia (7.10).Croatia went out at the Group Stage.

Which is crazy given their drought prior to the 08 team.

England is always in a tough spot - fans want to win but want an English coach - most English coaches would play exactly how Southgate did.

And having said that - while England has loads of talent, I would still put them just a notch below France, Spain and maybe Germany.

Spain’s Luis de la Fuente has interest in the USMNT coaching job, his representatives say.

To me, they're below Spain and France but above Germany.

I like tiers. England are probably in a tier with Argie, Germany and maybe even Colombia, who continues to punch above their weight.

Was the Uruguay squad on the other side of that?

Was coming to post scenes from the Hard Rock. Seems like a pretty dangerous way to handle things given that tix were allegedly going for $1500 and the game kicks off in less than 60 minutes.

Ironically, I think he is currently being paid the exact same amount as GGG.
He was only the 13th highest paid coach at the Euros so he certainly has the right to start asking for more from whom ever can pay it.

I hope they open all the gates soon. They are playing with an enormous amount of fire letting that many people queue up.

Good to see that it isn't just Charlotte unprepared for these Colombia fans. Could be an interesting night if Colombia loses...

if they don't open the gates almost immediately, many of these fans who paid a kings ransom to go to this game are going to miss the beginning if not more.Good to see that it isn't just Charlotte unprepared for these Colombia fans. Could be an interesting night if Colombia loses...
I don't understand what the Miami police think they are accomplishing by causing so many fans to get stuck behind the gates?

Just talked to @jennyachiu who is outside the SW gate at Hard Rock Stadium. Absolutely disastrous scenes with fans stuck outside. Hard to imagine the Copa America Final kicks off on time.

Yeah, feels like the buildup to a lot of bad scenes we've seen before. Hope things go smoothly in the end.

that is probably very smart. Hopefully they are making all the fans outside the stadium know this before a riot occurs.
They were totally unprepared for this tonight. I have read comments from the parking lot attendants who were told to come to work at 4:00pm today only to realize Colombian fans were already lining up at 6:30am to start tailgating.
Plus it's hot, heat index in the mid 90s. I just walked 4 miles with my SO on the boardwalk, where there's a nice breeze and she's sweating like crazy. Probably little breeze at Hard Rock.

Sounds like they are letting fans in in drips and drabs, specifically ones with young children.

Not a bad prediction for an imbecile like me. Fortunately I was able to make a couple of live bets to come out ahead.

This has all the smell of December 1979 in Cincy, but with the added horror that we could watch it real time.
I hope they can figure this out.

The on field reporter just relayed that the cops are saying that the situation outside has not deescalated. As 8:30 approaches it will get worse, not better. I know when Liverpool fans had issues at the CL final a few years ago everyone had all the previous incidents in mind and tried to take care of each other -- recognizing the dangers. Hopefully the people here have the same sense.
Things will probably resolve just fine, but it's uncomfortable to watch.

It's like the people at Hard Rock don't understand the magnitude of the match. Almost like this is just another football game. For many people in South America, it's much more.
