Is goal differential a tie breaking stat? If yes, you can't blame them. It is, and you’re right, but it still leaves a really sour taste. And the worst part is that now Sweden pretty much has to try to beat the brakes off of Thailand now, too. As I always say when teams cry about an opponent "running up the score" on them in football: It's your job to keep that from happening. Play better. |

Doing choreographed celebrations on goals 10,11 and 12 with the coaches jumping around is a really bad look. |

This came across my feed today.
Fairly certain nobody said these things.
But the likes!

Who's the chic in the original post?
Can we get a title change on the thread? It's the "kick-the-ball-and-run tournament."

One thing I never get worked up about is people "running it up." I don't even think there should be "slaughter rules" in youth sports. Fuck it. Go take your whoopin' and deliver one next time.
I was absolutely flabbergasted to find out there is an eight-run slaughter rule in NCAA Division I softball. They are scholarship fucking athletes. Man up, girls.

You don't want someone to run up the score on you? Stop 'em. |

Thanks! People did notice, then, just not any of the media that’s in the tank for women’s soccer. I am looking at a USA Today with a Nancy Armour column headlined “No apologies needed.” I look forward to similar treatment of Lincoln Riley when they torch Kansas by 70. Regarding the goal differential rule, I can’t believe they don’t max it out. In travel baseball you can’t be credited with more than a +8 in any game. That’s an easy rule to implement. But women’s soccer is run very stupidly so I can see why they don’t have that. |

It’s not possible when we’re talking about these teams. Thailand likely does not have a player who could make the USA’s 16U national team. |
