the non-concacaf (noncacaf??) mind cannot fathom the hilarity of ivan barton being the ref for a world cup semifinal

respectfully, you’re letting the guy ruin the world cup for you which is just further allowing him to intervene in something nice

soccer fans can are all high and mighty about this but let’s be so fr if we knew FIFA could be paid off to overturn balo’s red card last week, let’s not pretend that all of us wouldn’t have lined up to donate to that go fund me lmfao

was he defending the integrity of football when he took that job in saudi arabia? i don’t see him denouncing his former employers marseille for their unethical signings

honestly, i kinda figured american soccer fans would enjoy this for like maybe 3 hours before they milkshake duck’d the balo decision

jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 22/06/2026
god soccer fans are no fun like “the us is gonna lose when you play someone serious” well good thing we won our group so we don’t have to play anyone serious to get to the quarters 🤪 work smarter not harder

i miss when twitter was somewhat normal bc a sarcastic @mattdoyle.bsky.social tweet about messi breaking into mls a few years ago, or nust being MLS quota, would have done NUMBERS and a great time would have been had by all

i see we’re just replaying the same storyline from the last world cup: massive favorited unable to win against a random team with like maybe 1 player you’ve heard of, going on to win a tournament

who wins in a fight, the most hyped team in the tournament vs a 40 year old keeper who plays in the portuguese 2nd division? the answer may shock you
240
jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
i love the world cup bc wdym patrick beach of melbourne city and 40 year old vozinha (who plays in portuguese second division) have been the best keepers in the tournament thus far ???

jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
this was created by a group chat that is called “the girlies” kinda ironically, so like… a guide for the girlies by the girlies was all said with tongue firmly in cheek. idk, i had 200 followers and the ppl in my world wanted me to share it broadly and it backfired spectacularly. lesson learned!
110
jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
yeah i hear you, but i literally meant guide for the girlies like…my girls - friends or friends of friends that had requested such a guide, and didn’t really think it would escape containment like this. like i had been asked for a guide for the girls by other women, it didn’t come outta nowhere
210
jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
also bc i’m just explaining everything rn, the “care more about ex-gfs than xG” was a self-referential joke bc i am a ghost-stat hater. just ask the scuffed podcast discord

jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
at the moment i’m on infinite hiatus from creating or adding to any soccer guides lmao twitter won🙇🏻‍♀️

jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
(but srsly, australia winning 2-0 against a team with a wünderkid playing a 9-hope-1 formation is so world cup coded i love the world cup so much???? also. patrick beach? what a time to have the game of ur life!!! can’t wait to see you play fa cup games for city next season, probably )
010
jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
like… momentum and possession and even previous results alone aren’t predicting australia winning 2-0 against turkey! sometimes a team parks the bus successfully, a team with a star gets frustrated, and a keeper has the game of his life
000
jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
possession and “momentum” stat have actually been very useful this world cup not bc they tell you that much about what the results of a game are gonna be, but in fact bc they *don’t* seem to tell you whether someone’s gonna win. they do a real good job at explaining how very weird soccer can be

jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
the japanese national team heard the commentators calling them short over and over and over and went “okay what if we scored an equalizer via a header” and i think that’s absolutely iconic behavior
050
jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
thanks matt. It’s frustrating - I feel like there’s an implicit ball knowledge needed to create something like this that’s being ignored really did appreciate your commentary and your post - I’m glad it was fun and useful for a lot of folks! and maybe it IS time to delete the bird app for good

jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
I acknowledge I could have been stated the allegation outright instead of simply addressing this as “gregg confirms the rumors are true”. hope y’all can understand where I was coming from. I don’t really feel like bringing this up #overthere given the awful vibes but thought i’d say it here.

jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
I’ve been very consistent in my circles that since Rosalind clearly didn’t want this discussed it feels awful to keep dredging it up BUT that abuse is serious AND restorative justice > carceral justice. That discourse could be its own ~slide deck ~ tbh.
160
jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
One last comment only legit criticism I’ve gotten is that it seemed like we were glossing over the seriousness of 3g’s confirmed domestic abuse incident. But, through statements it’s been made clear that the survivor, Rosalind, didn’t want this being a topic of convo and i wanted to respect that.

jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
I don’t have a ton of recs, as the women in soccer I follow primarily talk about women’s soccer. i’ve been keeping up with “after the whistle”, hosted by brendan hunt & rebecca lowe I was hoping the women’s game or the recap show would be doing men’s wc coverage! but alas. I’ll keep an eye out!

jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 15/06/2026
WHAAAT thanks dude!!! just truly wasn’t expecting to wake up to death threats from angry people on twitter this morning my friends have done a good job of reporting, and i deleted the app off my phone- but idk how yall do this

jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 14/06/2026
anyway maybe it’s worth a genuine discussion over whether the resulting content is patronizing, or fun and cute? it certainly wasn’t intended that way but being a gal who watches sports can be quite frustrating. without the context of knowing i’m a soccer fan ig it could seem condescending
260
jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 14/06/2026
the sky halo debacle was insulting because it was clear the content was being made by someone who didn’t love the sport. we know all this BC we love the team, and shared facts we thought would be compelling to non soccer fans and called it the girlies guide bc it was created by a group of women.
190
jackie @okayjackie.bsky.social · 14/06/2026
this has escaped containment on twitter and women are real, real mad about it. i’m certainly not gonna defend myself over there but over here, im just gonna say - this didn’t materialize out of nowhere! as known sickos in our communities we were asked this information by our pals (of all genders)
