And alas, it was for nothing. Congratulations to the Belgian team.
According to Polymarket, the USA was a 54¢ to 47¢ favorite to beat Belgium, despite having only about a 3% chance overall of winning the entire World Cup. Folarin Balogun had a couple of great chances that he missed. I'll probably watch the World Cup final.
No commercials is pretty nice.

Wouldn't Argentina v England be a great championship match.
Better than a war in the Falkland Islands/Islas Malvinas!
There is some chance that England v Argentina could be a semi final match up.
I marvel at Lionel Messi's greatness.
He is a nice man with an incredible story.

At this point all my teams (NL, DE, US) are out, so I just want France and England to win their next two games so that this can be known as the "I see England, I see France" World Cup.
