Reply to comment by JonnyBit in Canada eliminated from men's World Cup contention despite Alphonso Davies' historic goal by Genevieves_bitch

Don't know why you're down voted when you're 100% right.

That free kick had Hoilett's name all over it. Anyone who watched him in Cardiff knows he only scores from 20 yards out.

JD should have taken the PK. Same way Ronaldo, Bale or Lewy always take the PK. I love Davies and can't wait to see him in his prime in 2026 but these two situations cost Canada the tournament.

It’s the fact that we’re on r/sports during the World Cup. Everyone thinks they’ve watched the sport their whole lives right about now and gets offended when any name they know is criticized. I know I’m a little extreme calling him a total ball hog, but I know I’m right with my explanations and everything.

World Cup is the one time where downvotes mean absolutely nothing lol, a quick scroll revealed that the guy I was arguing with had never made a soccer related comment in his life before this
