It just started and we’re still in off season so might as well. I think Germany has the perfect group to embarrass themselves too should they not make it out of groups stage.

I’m definitely watching the World Cup – I just got back from the pub where I was watching New Zealand beat Norway. I’ve been trying to get !worldcup@lemmy.world going for the World Cup so that people who want to talk about it have a space that’s dedicated to the tournament, so if you wanna come hang out over there as well, it might be fun!

I’m definitely watching. The first match just finished. So happy for New Zealand. It’s always fun when the hosts have success in their tournament.

I am, even though my post about it yesterday got removed. I like that Fox is showing full replays online, it helps Americans deal with the timezone issue.

For some games it’s also crazy in Europe, for example first game tomorrow is at 4:30 am. 😅 Think I might skip that one
