World Cup 2026: Mexico, USA and Canada

Has there been a close game in the knock outs after a second half lead?

We had some late wins, fair enough.

But it seems that once a team got a lead in the last half hour the game just petered out, never felt like a team were capable of forcing a late comeback. Is that the conditions maybe?
 
Not sure how scoring 8 in 7 games is holding them back 😂 none of their players have turned up tonight.
Selfish, lazy, individual performance. Like he does at club level, tons of individual goals and accolades but cant get his TEAM over the line at the highest level. (Champions League)

PSG get rid of him, back to back European champions.
Madrid - European champions - 2 out 3 years. Nothing since buying him.

Probably but some stadiums are air con'd - I thought Belgium should have knocked Spain out on another day.

He’s already won a World Cup mate, and scored a hat trick in another final. Granted it’s not a good look that he left PSG and they’ve won back to back champions leagues but he’s reached the final and scored a brick ton of goals in his career. I find the idea that he’s overrated to be strange.

Also I love the Dallas stadium, the US do their stadiums well with steep stands. Must be really intimidating to play in as an away team.

The Cowboys have massively underachieved since the 90s. They’ve won 1 playoff game in 30 years. Lovely stadium but I don’t know if it’s intimidating.
