My big concern about this Olympics is around security.
Anyone vacationing in Paris who is not there to see an Olympic event is a fucking moron

New Zealand leading 1-0 in the football against Guinea.

Not a big fan of this NZ football team
Committing professional fouls and flopping. Miss me with that.

The last three minutes of the Argentina and Morocco game are being played in front an empty stadium four hours have the match began.

All over in Nice. New Zealand beat Guinea 2-1. A draw or a win against either France or USA might see them go through to the knockouts.

I think we will overachieve to keep the goal difference under 5 against France….
-
France ended up beating the USA 3-0 with a strong half show.
NZ's best chance of getting out of the group is probably beating the US.

What did you think of the offside call?
Sections of the Moroccan fans throwing stuff on the pitch including fire crackers. Pretty appalling.
