CONCACAF strikes again. I guess the strategy for the crap teams is to goon up (70s Flyers style) the game against teams that can actually play the sport. What a joke. What an awful game to watch. No flow. Foul after foul, interruptions, delays, bullshit... just awful sport. It is a very rare game for a team to get two red cards in a game. But El Salvador ๐ธ๐ป managed to pull it off. One a flagrant for an elbow, the other two gross yellows... (...and it amazes me that they seem outraged!) Just the worst of CONCACAF BS. (Footy Prime calling the first half embarrassing and dangerous, a team that had no interest in playing football. El Salvador played like hooligans with no discipline, first half was a disgrace) When you are concerned for players being injured it is no longer sport.. Canada did score two goals then the game devolved further into an odd training exercise. I was hoping they'd run the score up but why risk injury I guess. So Canada top their table and get into the knock out round. I guess they can expect more of the same from Guatemala on Sunday... SIGH.
Carney making military partnerships in Europe in light of the US Admin's bailing on the World. A new goal for 3.5% defense spending has been set for 2035. The plan is to boost manufacturing to build some of the weapons required. The percentage includes a lot of internal infrastructure spending and accounting so it isn't fully on military per se.
While I'm not confident about some of the Bill's Carney is passing... (they seem to overreach) at least he answers questions and offers real responses from journalists...yes, the bar it low.
