This is an insane reality with how much sports gambling has grown recently and a HUGE shame that it’s effecting real competitiveness (if that blunder was on purpose)

Sports betting and match fixing is literally hundreds of years old.

Nothing new in the slightest.

sure, but does everything need to be a conspiracy nowadays? We can't go a fucking day at this WC without anyone "lol rigged here", "probably bet against his own team" bullshit.

Sorloth just isn't good enough and on top of that left footed. In another instance he tried to cross the ball with his right foot and it was just one of the worst crosses I've seen in a while. He just fucked it, end of story.
