It was on the FUBO Sports in the United States.

1-0. Portugal. Neves wearing the number 21 shirt in honor of Jota scored the goal. Emotional scenes.

Ronaldo missed his penalty vs Ireland.

It was a pretty great save by Kelleher IMO.

5-0. Big win for Norway. Perfect in WCQ. Top of the group. Erling is a truly special player.

Erling being on the full 90 hopefully means that he is nowhere to be found vs New Zealand on Tuesday.

5-0. Erling hat trick. Header.

4-0. Erling. His 50th goal for Norway in 46 appearances.

Hopefully, Gigio mocked the Israelis on Tuesday like he did the last time.

The Norwegians were booing the Israeli anthem and the crowd was holding up red cards as the Israeli team came out.

3-0 now. Israel OG. Please subbed off Erling and Bobb now.

You're right. It's definitely an OG.

Erling scored finally. 2-0.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 6h

I think an Israeli player might push a Norway player slightly in the box from what I saw in the replay.

There were no protests whatsoever from anyone. Even the commentary didn't understand why the pen was called.

Norway. 1-0. Nusa. Bobb with pre-assist.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 6h

Yeah, you were right. I just saw the replay.

The City gene returns.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 6h

Oh boy. Erling missed the pen. It gets retaken because the keeper was off his line and he misses again.

Both were poorly taken IMO.

Erling is really focused now in the tunnel.

USMNT did well enough to earn a draw against a very well-drilled and organized Ecuadorian side. Still things to work on, but some progress.

On to Australia on Tuesday.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 20h

1-1. Balogun. Great team goal, USMNT.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 20h

I think Luna could be a good fit for La Liga in the future.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 21h

USMNT did well this half despite losing. Just need to do better in the final 3rd.

Ecuador is a good side to watch.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 21h

Valencia just glided through the USMNT players and scored.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 22h

Balogun’s movement has been sharp. Just missing that final touch so far.

Christina Herbst @christinaherbst.bsky.social · 1d

He and Bobb better be on the 1st flight back to Manchester after the game tomorrow. Don't need them to play against New Zealand. Give Strand Larsen or Sørloth a chance.
