What an important day to remember that incidences of domestic abuse increase significantly during the World Cup; even when the abuser's team win.

Kalidou Koulibaly clinches advancement against Ecuador with his first international goal.

a whole ass essay can be written about european national teams refusing to play against teams from other continents (africa, asia and south america) and closing themselves in continental championships instead - because they’ve convinced themselves they’re the only ones who can play “good” football - and how they’re only now facing the consequences of their superiority complex and pride: netherlands struggling against ecuador and senegal, belgium and germany being eliminated on group stage and losing their spot to african and asian teams instead, denmark not winning a single match, etc.

this might be a bit random but i figured since everybody's feeling some type of way, might as well bring back the OG clownery when it comes to PSG 🤡💁🏻‍♀️

in 1973, a midfielder lost his dentures at some point during a match and didn't notice until they were back in the locker room. It was snowing and cold, but they had to light up the whole stadium so that the entire team, staff included, could search the pitch. Never found the dentures and nearly caught hypothermia in the process

in 1979, PSG was invited to Cameroon to play two friendlies for a big check (see? nothing's changed). The team was traveling aboard two buses, but no one had noticed the microphones inside were directly broadcasting the whole ride through the town. They were nicknamed the 'PSG circus' for a while because of it. The local press had a field day.

in 1983, the club organized the first football cruise to 'ease the team back into training' after winter break (and make big bucks). Fans, families, staff, everyone aboard. There was literally no space to move and they sent about a hundred balls out into the sea. No one ever truly knew why they even came up with something like that. They ended up playing friendlies in Senegal, including one where after the equivalent of not one but two matches in a row, the score was still 0-0.

in the early 1990s, the team famously spent hours combing the locker room for the second shin guard of their resident Awkward Boi. He had put both on the same leg. They showed up late and were finned.

in 1998, the back-then President of PSG and the back-then President of RC Lens got stuck in an elevator together. They'd almost gotten into a fist fight earlier that night, everyone thought they were going to murder each other in there.

at some point in 2010-ish, the team's hotel couldn't get enough ice for ice baths for the players. The staff had to go fetch some at a local supermarket. Great right? Except it was from the seafood department. Some of the players couldn't get rid of the smell afterwards.

in case anybody ever wondered, this team always had chaotic written in their DNA

Ecuador vs. Senegal | 2022 FIFA World Cup Group A | Predictions FIFA 23

That’s the beauty of a World Cup. Everything becomes about flags and colors and songs, but not in a way that tears people apart. We dream of our homelands in a way that is positive. In my neighborhood, it was connected to the past and to family in a beautiful way. Sometimes, especially in an African family, it might be the only time you will ever see your father or your uncle cry.

Sometimes people ask me why I chose to play for Senegal instead of France.

“Kouli, if you went for France, you could have been a world champion.”

Maybe, but I believe in fate. I always say that I am the fruit of two cultures -- the French and the Senegalese. I am very proud to be French. But for me, representing Senegal has been God’s plan. There has been something inside of me since 2002, pulling me toward that fate. I remember back when Aliou took over the team in 2015, he called me and said, “Kouli, we’re going into a new cycle, and we need you. You must come with us.”

He took a chance on a 24-year-old who was still sitting on the bench for Napoli. He believed in me. So I had to believe in Senegal. When I called my parents to tell them my decision, it was the only time in my life that I have seen them excited about football. Normally, they act as if I am still playing a game out in the schoolyard. They are too familiar with the hardships of real life to be bothered by a game. But when I called my father on FaceTime and told him that I was going to represent Senegal, I could see the light in his eyes.

This is a man who worked nonstop as a skilled worker in a sawmill — seven days a week for five years — so that he could give his children a better life in France. It takes a lot to get The Boss excited. But that day, his eyes were shining. Me representing my country is not just about a football match. It is about my blood, and my history, and the dreams of my parents.

This Ecuador/Senegal result is making me feel the same as the Ghana/South Korea result - happy for the winning team, but so so sorry for the losing teams who played amazing football
