they "sealed the deal" when they won the penalty shootout against england. their (lack of) success at the world cup has nothing to do with that.
Okay I give you that. Still embarassing missing out on two in a row for Italy.

The beautiful game giveth and the beautiful game taketh away.I don't understand how you can win the Euro Championship and soon after lose to Macedonia. Like, how?
Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that. One of the biggest upsets in ages.
How are you going to dismiss your fellow italian, Verratti (PSG).I'll always have 2006. Still chasing the high of watching an amazing playmaker like Pirlo. Any advice for teams to follow with a player like that?
I mean I can't exactly follow him in the World Cup...How are you going to dismiss your fellow italian, Verratti (PSG).
How do you win the Euro cup in between both world cups that you miss?
With Italy winning a match in the 6 Nations Rugby and Ferrari back to winning ways in F1 something had to give... But to North Macedonia? Oof!
After last night, we have one chance if, simultaneously:
- Venezuela beats or draw vs Colombia
- Peru loses or draw vs Paraguay
- Chile beats Uruguay by at least one goal (draw eliminates us)
That gives us the 5th place to play against the asian team for a qualify spot
Lets just say I drank A LOT yesterday. Lol 🇨🇦🇨🇱🇮🇹. At least Canada is still very likely to make it through.Fuck, I just realized that you've suffered 4 times in 2 world cups qualifiers lol
A lot of people doesn't seem to understand what football is about; for one, it's a sport where not always the best team wins, like in almost all the other sports.Secondly, it's much easier to defend than to attack.
And finally, national team players don't play together, they don't train together, they have different coaches, different styles of plays etc, and this is specially true for the big countries. Smaller teams that train together for months for an Euro or a World Cup manage to get upsets constantly
TlDR: Nations football suck, club's football is were it's at.

My family is from Chile, so I always hear lots of complaining when they lose.
