2026 FIFA World Cup

[white is right]

Hi - I'm new to the thread and don't know much at all about soccer. Who should I be rooting for? I know it's not America or England or France or Germnay. Who is the white team most likely to win?

It's probably Argentina which is largely an ethnic Italian team with some Castizo players and a few Spaniards and one player who has a Scottish surname but at best is half Scottish as he looks like a Southern European.

As others have stated Germany was awful again and lost to a very mediocre Paraguay squad in penalty kicks. The Germans have been so bad since 14' that the have consistently broken unprecedented levels of achievement with the awful opposite of these achievements.

Until 18' The German squad at always made at least a quarterfinal, that went up in smoke. They have failed to advance to the old play off format for 3 straight tournaments( a new record for ineptitude) and now they have lost in their first shoot out.

You can't expect the goalie to save 3 straight shots because your players repeatedly hit posts or attempt try out for NY Jets kicker job with sky high penalty kicks.

As for the Dutch they have been awful at penalties for years and this came back to bite them in the butt.

I will say that through better coaching weaker squads have come closer to being equal with better talented squads with using defensive shells as Germany was repeatedly smothered by Paraguayan defenders in the first half as Paraguay was content to play in a shell similar to a team killing a penalty in hockey.

Argentina doesn't have the whitest team, but they're the least black of those with a good chance of winning.

Since I don't watch the Premier League I don't know if Haaland is someone who puts his own glory ahead of the team - I'd be surprised as it's very unScandinavian to do so - but he should've passed to an open player during that late opportunity instead of trying to score himself. Ivory Coast nearly scored right after it.

Definitely Argentina.

Croatia is all-white but hasn't looked good enough to go much further. Bosnia & Herzegovina would also count if you don't mind the many Bosniak Muslims in their squad - that they're whiter and more sympathetic than the USA goes without saying.

Spain features "only" two blacks, but both are goal-scoring wingers and starters, including a black Muslim teenager who has been anointed to supplant Messi as the GOAT and also walk on water and then turn that water into wine (which he will not drink, because he is Muslim, although he has a white Spanish prostitute girlfriend). Until he inevitably tears something, that rules Spain out for me.

Norway "only" has two blacks, but the team is already in unchartered waters in terms of advancing. Belgium and Portugal have an outside shot at winning the cup, but you wouldn't necessarily cheer for them ahead of the aforementioned teams. Sweden and Austria each have a short handful of non-whites on the pitch at all times.

If you're watching games passively, it's almost as important to root against the villains. England's roster has been artificially replaced with a social engineering experiment. France's team has been a punchline for many cycles now, but it should still be celebrated when they lose. African teams have been force-fed into this tournament, so it's good optics that they all get eliminated quickly. Switzerland fields a majority non-white team and has an easy corner of the bracket, so I'd love to see them lose soon, too.
