So basically a shedload of tickets sold to people who have no intentions of going to matches. Locals aren't happy about it. Because the host country is too small?

Japan are a good side and Germany have been pretty guff for 5 or 6 years now. They might need a hard das reboot now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess this is a problem you get in a country where only about 10% of the population are actually Qatari and the rest are there to feed off the money. Again it brings into question bringing the world cup to a country that doesn't have the infrastructure for a World Cup. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qatar is slightly larger than Yorkshire and it's hosting one of the biggest sporting competitions on the planet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you can never downplay a 7 -0 win really Germany have to overhaul their shape, a proper 4 at the back 3 in midfield, those 3 could be kimmich, goretzka and gundogan which is pretty damn good, sacrifice an attacking midfielder If Germany go with the same 3 at the back it'll be another shit show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
