Yorkie Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Was listening to Tim Vickery on Second Captains and it sounds like it's a total joke that the tournament is going ahead at all, and basically defies sense. Constant issues with the hosts, Bolsanero being Bolsanero, players not wanting to compete, and this daftness about it being something daft like the fourth one in six years.

LiquidAK Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Any chance that Messi finally gets an international trophy? Not sure what Argentina's chances are, but he's got to be running low on opportunities at this point... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad it has reversed and the cases are falling there again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think its because of an covidoutbreak in the Venezuelan squad, so they have a reserve-team-thing going on with they main squad in quarantine.. From a random newspage: The Venezuelan national football team was hit by a COVID-19 outbreak a day before the opening match of the Copa America against host Brazil on Sunday. Eight players and four coaches tested positive shortly after arriving in Brasilia, said Brazilian Health Minister Marcelo Queiroga.

Yorkie Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Rondon not in the squad at all though. Assumed it must have been some issue with traveling from Russia/China (wherever he's based)? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEEJ Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 This is the worst commentary I've ever heard. He's just mumbling Spanish names then sporadically shouting stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Seriously how is this the best the BBC could put out? There are many great local radio commentators out there that could do a decent job.
