"Centre of body mass" would be dumb, whatever that is

But even then, there was a line of players all in a line. Taking away that goal is ALWAYS going to be 100% against the spirit of the rule.

Any scoring body part, so not arms.
This keeper is a mess.

The ball possession by Ecuador is totally unsurprising.

That might be offside too.
Nope, all good. Qatar just don't have the ball.

They showed another angle and the left back played everyone onside by a yard.

Which feed is TSN picking up? Already miss the single man booth we've heard the last several World Cups (IE John Helm etc)
Commentator is too wordy and the colorman is just adding more noise that isn't required.

The quality of this Qatar team is jarring. This is the WC there’s no room for feel-good moral victory stories. This is supposed to be the best of the best.
I kinda feel bad for the Qatari players. They are just trying their best, it’s not their fault their government are scum. They are just out of their league. They were killed Croatia U23 team just 3 months ago. Netherlands will set goal scoring records.

Ecuador looks good. Fast, skilled, tenacious.
Qatar is either terrible, or playing terrible though.

How about feel-bad, immoral victory stories?

I was expecting a thrashing after the shaky start, but a 2-0 loss isn't particularly shabby.

Thats the half-time show.
Or maybe they're saving it up for the closing ceremonies?
"Migrant workers? What migrant workers? Show them to us...everyone is welcome in Qatar...."

Ecuador came out in the 2nd half looking like a team that was reminded that their passports were surrendered when they entered the country and if they ever planned to step foot on home soil again, they should not embarrass the Qatari team any further.

The possession numbers were remarkably close.

Imagine how bad qatar would be if they were relying on actual Qataris, more than half their team are basically hired guns who took immense wages to live there for 5 years so they could be naturalized but have no personal or familial relationship with the country beyond that. Nice seeing them get beat down after the whole shady spectacle with their bribery to host and general sketchiness.
Anybody else using tsn direct? It seems like there is a 24/7 world cup channel there but when I try and watch it is says not available for streaming. Wondering why it is on the app if not viewable.
Edit nvm, it's disappeared now, think maybe it just goes offline at night there
