Man, 🙏

Saw something absolutely ridiculous today. The guy in charge of gear didn't even bother clearing the small soccer balls off the track, so these runners basically had to hurdle over them. Total disaster.

Yeah, right. It’s probably just because the local refs decided to look the other way.

I honestly can't believe my eyes.
So, this woman is supposed to jump, realizes she’s totally stuck, and then just grabs this massive rope and clears it anyway. Like, absolutely insane, and nobody even blinked...

Who’s actually keeping track of this? Does Žunić even have a shot at a medal?

So, who from our crew is actually out there competing today?

Man, I am so incredibly relieved he didn't win.

Brann vs. Ružomberok Double Chance +2 @2.30 SS 20.07. 19:00
3/10

I'm flying solo on this one; the odds looked too tempting to pass up, so why not? In the first leg over in Slovakia, Brann pulled off a 1-0 win, making them the clear favorites to advance. They’re already deep into their season back home in the US, currently sitting pretty in fourth place in the MLS, and they absolutely love playing on their own turf—they've only dropped one home league game all season. I'm guessing they'll wrap this up today with a convincing win against these guys, especially since the Slovak side actually choked and lost 2-1 in Novi Sad against Vojvodina during the last round.

Levski Sofia vs. Hajduk Split Double Chance X2 @1.70 SS 20.07. 19:00
6/10

Hajduk is just the better side, honestly. If they had shown even a little more focus at the end of their plays, they probably would've walked away with a 2-0 or 3-0 lead in Dugopolje. I don't see them losing today, and I think they'll move on. I also read earlier that their main defender got sidelined with an injury, which is another point in Hajduk's favor. Plus, they're playing in front of empty stands, so in my book, these odds are a total steal.

Nottingham’s been looking pretty rough this season too, which is probably why the odds aren't super low, but I’m with you—Rotherham should take this one.

The game

What a total waste

Look, I guess we're all just here rooting for the Norwegians 👋

Pešić and Mamić Ajmooooooooo 🙏 🙏 🙏

Ajmooooooooo

Unbelievable choking in the semifinals

Fourth place, just pure glitter.

If we get knocked out by the Norwegians, we’re basically dead meat against the Slovaks. I mean, Vuja probably knows our roster better than Babic does at this point.

So yeah, it's either silver or nothing.

Did you actually watch them during the tournament? Or did you even bother watching us?

Give me a break.

I mean, they’re probably just getting their revenge for us snagging that bronze and winning the Olympics.

Just kidding, we've totally got this.

Before Alilović, it's just another choke at Kopljar's spot.

Babic’s some kind of visionary, I guess. We're basically letting the Germans slide right through, they get knocked out, and we cruise straight to the semifinals while dodging the French entirely. ☕
