Euros kicked off yesterday with the hosts, Germany winning big over the Scottish who looked bewildered at times.

Key games for this weekend are

Spain - Croatia
Serbia - England
Poland - Netherlands

Usually, Spain is a caste favorite but, this year they have two non Spanish players on their roster.
Croatia has aged and will likely not be a factor.
Italy like Spain now has non Italians in squad but, remains predominantly Italian and will likely be competitive.
A few Eastern European teams that could surprise, especially Denmark.

Hopefully, France severely underperforms.

It’s shocking to me how many non Europeans play on these teams, with France usually the worst.

Total disgrace

That England team looks worse than ever from a racial perspective. The Netherlands weren't much better. And then there's Germany. To make matters worse they all won against virtually all-white teams.

The racial composition of the Western European teams won't come as a surprise to any of those who have spent time there.

As Americans, we think the the DEI, anti White push is the strongest here. But, one could argue that the Europeans, especially, the Germans, English, French have been getting the worst of the White guilt , self hate message. Thus, the narrative is that the diversity of these teams is always seen as a good thing..

This Euro Cup is the most non-White I’ve ever seen and “France” hasn’t even played yet. The Dutch team is a disgrace, as well as England which is to be expected now. I think Spain starting 2 non-Whites was most jarring, as they have been virtually all-White while Europe has been demographically flooded over the past decades. I guess their holdout was a matter of time.

Lastly, my former favorite team Deutschland (I’m more German than anything else) is impossible to root for. Rudiger and Tah are likely the worst central defender duo to start in the illustrious history of German football. The lumbering oaf Rudiger, like clockwork, scored an own goal against hapless Scotland. Against better opponents, this defensive pairing will doom Germany. Gundogan, Can and Sane seem to be permanent rotation players, despite being rarely impressive and could easily replaced by a native. I think to some degree these are DEI spots that the German government is happy to encourage to push their Great Replacement propaganda.

Decent results today. Slovakia beat Belgium 1-0, Romania beat Ukraine 3-0, and France needed an Austrian own goal to win a close match 1-0.

Very happy Belgium lost to the all-White Slovakia squad. I failed to mention Belgium in my rant from yesterday. They appear to have Africans and other non-Whites occupying 50-60 percent of the roster. Things just keep getting worse and worse for the Western Euro countries. Until the political upheaval and repatriation of foreigners happens, or these countries fall entirely, this will continue to slowly get worse.

Belgium seems to have concluded that they couldn't win with North Africans so they are going to do what the French did and switch to sub-saharan Africans. I'm old enough to remember them making the World Cup semi-finals in 1986 with just Dutch & French-speaking Belgians & one ethnic Italian (Enzo Scifo). In 1980 an all-white Belgium were beaten finalists in the Euro tournament against West Germany.

It’s very sad. Really

So, Spain has two black forwards, and one is 16 years old. The pregame is hyping up how Spain has finally gotten with the times and now has the speed to compete.

Yep, Nico Williams. Sounds like a Spaniard to me…..

^^that picture on one of the biggest sports sites in Europe isn't by accident. They chose them to be the face of the Spanish team when neither are key pieces of this team. Spain has the best midfielder ( the QB position of soccer) in the world and yet he doesn't get called the face of Spanish soccer. But, as Spain is now a feminist , socialist nation, this is celebrated as a good thing.

Also, note the darker, taller player, Williams, was born in Basque country and plays for Atletico Bilboa which has a policy of only rostering local Basque players. A rarity when sports has gone global, this team from a small region in Spain with only local players is actually competitive. However, as Williams' parents illegally crossed into Spain and Nico was born in Pamplona he is now Basque.. his brother also born in Basque plays for the Ghanian national soccer team.

It's all so tiresome...

The Copa America starts tonight with Argentina vs Canada. Canada is a heavy DEI team and Argentina is not and this makes for an interesting match up.

USMNT is a group with Uruguay, Panama and Bolivia and play first match vs Bolivia on Sunday.

The caste favorites are
Argentina, Chile, Uruguay

Ironically this tournament may have less upside affletes than the Euros does..

Unfortunately, Williams was also Spain's best player against Italy, which means he isn't going away.

In a few mins we get an Africa Cup game. France vs Holland. Two pathetic countries that have both embraced mass immigration and the myth of black athletic superiority. The Dutch are especially shameful as I would argue that their genetics are amongst the finest in the world. They’ve always excelled at any type of athletics.

Have to disagree with you. I think Williams is a fine player as a winger but, Spain has tons of scoring options. Their best player by far is Rodri. Followed by Pedri.
I've watched Williams play quite a bit and he requires service or is quite inconsequential. With the ball, he can generate scoring options. But many Spanish players can do that. Few can control the game like Rodri.
However, I do agree that the trend of Spanish soccer having less indigenous Spaniards isn't going away.

I was referring to the match against Italy. I've only seen these guys - Williams, Rodri, Pedri, - playing a handful of times this year so I can't compare them in general.

I'm pretty appalled by this German team. It also looks like the worst politicians there are pushing them because they represent the new multiculti Germany. As group winners they will play the runners-up in the group with England, Denmark, Serbia, and Slovenia. At the moment Denmark looks most likely but this England team has been unimpressive so they could draw or even lose to Slovenia so it's possible Germany could play England in the knock-out stage. That would be ideal as it would get rid of one of the two worst teams early on.

USMNT won their opening game vs Bolivia today 2-0. They were by far the better squad led by Pulisic who factored into both goals with a goal and an assist.

Even though US soccer has gone full on DEI, the best American player is a Caucasian..also of note the Bolivian national team has more White players than the French soccer team does..
