Speaking of the genius of the 48 team system, we almost came full circle with the Austra Algeria match because back in 1982 the "disgrace of Gijon" happened where Germany played Austria and both teams knew before the match witch result they would need to advance. Germany won 1:0 which was enough for both teams to move on and after the 1:0 fell both teams just kicked around the ball and basically stop playing actual football. The victim of this was, ironically, Algeria who got knocked out. After that match FIFA changed the rules so the last matches of a group would be played simultaneously. Now with the expansion of the world cup to 48 teams we got came close to another disgrace match bc Austria and Algeria both knew before the match what result they would need to advance bc of so many 3rd ranked teams moving on.
So we all know what will happen soon: We will get one major matchday where all groups play their last match simultaneously. Like in the new Champions League. I'd bet money on it if I were a betting man.

They should have kept the round of 32 brackets secret but the current bald mountain nigger running the show, pretty much is more concerned with pleasing Trump than fixing the game.
I know of some people that expected Spain vs. Uruguay to be "the pact of Guadalajara" but you really can't trust Uruguayans do to shit.
I don't know about you guy but the Round of 32 just feels like a condensed group stage to me. South Africa vs. Canada will mean one of two pops their cherry with the Round of 16. I'm feeling South Africa, massive blackouts and business as usual.
