If there was ever a time for the “Sure, Jan” meme, it’s in response to FIFA’s last statement.

I don't think we've seen a one-sided crowd at BC Place like this during the World Cup, save Canada. There are a billion yellow shirts here. Since visas have to be approved in advance, and the BC Colombia population is +/- 4.6K (2021), the majority have to be from the US. #FIFAWorldCup #Colombia

I'm not sold on Phonzie having a tactical impact. Emotionally, yes. Aura, yes. But the 15 mins he played showed he's not there yet. He's playing like he's one sprint from the end of his career.

Make that four yellows on Morocco, with El Khannouss going in the books just before the halftime whistle. Time for Richie Laryea to do Richie Laryea things. #Canmnt #FIFAWorldCup

Why do I get the feeling one of these sides will be down to 10 men in the second half? Three yellows for Morocco, two for Canada. One whistle from English referee Michael Oliver could change this game completely. #CanMNT #FIFAworldCup

I think the Netherlands' decision to let Morocco have so much of the ball, and dominate that game, coloured the perception of a lot of people of how good the Lions are. Canada showing you don't have to bunker. #CanMNT #FIFAworldCup

Morocco with a shot! And a crepeau save. Still, this game isn't going the way everyone predicted. Maybe, just maybe, Marsch did hypnotize the Moroccans like their media had suggested 😅

We're a half hour into Canada-Morocco, and the Atlas Lions have yet to have a shot or touch in the #canmnt box. The Canadians really on the front foot here, with a couple big chances already. It's gotta be Jesse Marsch's jeans. #FIFAworldCup #AtlasLions

Some of my favourite lines: “We swear by the lightning that destroys,
By the virtuous and fragrant blood “We have taken the drum of gunpowder as our rhythm
And the sound of machine guns as our melody” 
“O France, the day of reckoning is at hand”

They only put the lyrics for the Algerian anthem in Arabic on the big screen so I joked to @jjadams.bsky.social that they probably say "F the French, we beat the French" And, well, holy shit: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kassaman
