A lot of high attendance matches - and especially in South America they have tiered entry points to prevent this sort of thing. 

It's not very common that 100s of people can rush to one gate. When I was in Argentina I went through maybe 5 or 6 from memory 

got to say I'm a commando bloke for sometime haha but for when I play a game on the weekend in fear of avoiding a embarrassing situation incriminating myself hehe

Oh, hahahaha you're a pisser mate :) 

Sometimes down here we dont wear the m at all.... hahahahahahah

I’m talking Vic his wifey but I’m not surprised you blokes down there wear them till they fall off haha 

No we are poor down here, we dont throw away our undies, we wear them till they fall off. hahahahahaha

I'm sure Vic has enough thong seconds for him to slip on !

I wonder if all the died in the wool Miami fans are going to stop going to MLS matches now if Messi is out for a while? Hope they've sold enough jerseys to keep Beckham in expensive undies for a while :)

nah, its likely on when its a "bye" round :)

man you da stats man haha....and grazer.

So ok Argies been on a roll now, when looking at their squad they like Spain will have a good core still come next WC.
Messi ? will he hang in ala Ronaldo.
DiMaria retires and there 2/3 from the starting line up most likely won't be picked due to age but they have alot of mid 20 players so they are looking promising staying strong ahead.
Messi is a huge factor in name alone and all the years he's a major mental positive cog amongst the group.
Will be interesting whats to unfold.

I was thinking APL's "come and gather round" but your idea is better :)

oh yer and have a NST/Championship game curtain raiser :)
Ticket sales record haha

That would be a worthy match for the Australian FA to bid to host in my opinion. 

Seems to be slated for 2025, so will assume as a friendly during the next summer break?

A triple for the Argies! (Last 2 Copa's and the World Cup in between).

Countries that have done this (3 straight international tournaments in a row)
2024-2022-2021: Argentina
2012-2010-2008: Spain

If we count the Olympics pre-Euros/pre-World Cup as well
Uruguay did 4 in a row across Copa America and Olympics 1924-1928
Italy did 3 in a row across Olympics and World Cup 1934-1938

Brazil would be on this list if they won either the 1998 World Cup OR the 2001 Copa America. If they won both, they would have 6 in a row across 1997-2004

Worthy finalists, attacked the game, bad luck to Columbia.... Argentina v Spain in the Finalissima... should be an entertaining watch anyone know when that is?

Martinez 5 goal tournament, the winner and I suppose you can it a Double for the Argies.
DiMaria bows out fairytale ending and Messi ?

Bad luck Columbia put up a brave fight.

Hahaah I lik that "ColumnB -ia" huh? hahahahaha 

Meanwhile who else by Martinez? 1-0 Argentina.

Probably a little of Column A and a little of Column B to be honest.

Hey guys, Sure fan issues at the gate I agree however surely these organisers would have expected 60,000 to tunr up hours before hand and all want to get in?

Having women and children line up for 6 hours in the sun, passing out and then when they get into the stadium charging them $5 for a plastic cup of water?? I don't know man.... seems like they got caught un-prepared to me. 

absolutely shocking !
I have NO volume.

They are fucking terrible, aren't they. They are obviously not watching live but are looking at the same video feed as we are, but even so their understanding of what is happening, particularly with regard to fouls, free kicks, offsides, etc., is amazingly poor.
Their terminology is grating as well, in yesterday's game the commentator referred, one more than one occasion, to a free kick whipped into the box as a "line drive".

These American commentators are grating. 

Wow Messi fell over himself 60odd min - has come off.

Too funny

yer me think fans have caused the issues.

So far close finale, vibe good, be amazing Columbia win tbh against the WChamps.
Just great for football but we shall see.

I'm a bit intrigued at the discourse of this being on the organisers.

Surely this is (mostly) on the Colombian fans that all turned up when they shouldn't have?

What an absolute disaster.... These Yanks couldn't organise a root in a brothel... 

Delay after delay and people are dropping like nine pins... Their gonna have blood on their hands if something doesn't change soon...

World Cup is gonna be a nightmare for them.... 

VAMOS Argentina .... only just though (I secretly want Columbia to win) but with two Argie players and and Argie coach Hellas have a Dockerty Cup Semi final tomorrow and I want them happy :)

Just as long as its a good game - LFC player in each side good stuff, one will be happy the other not.

Would be good for Colombia to win.

Let's go Colombia
