TheUNInterrupted:A Sports Odyssey

     The 2018 World Cup was a bizarre tournament , full of curious comebacks, upsets, own goals and unassisted goals like penalties or free kicks: so...in a nutshell, it was a disjointed competition.    France won the World Cup by not only being the most unpredictable team (as well as the deepest) but because they could endlessly adapt to every style, formation or tactical setup and go for glory.    They hit Belgium on the counter and scrapped for possession, making it a push and pull fight that ended up wasting and draining Belgium's energy in attack; they passed Uruguay to death; then, Deschamps sent everyone forward in an attacking frenzy against Argentina (in the Round of 16) and Croatia in the final; they played like shit and got lucky against Australia, and could've scored 5 or 6 goals (but only grabbed 1 and should've allowed a few) against Peru.     Not too many players were swapped out  throughout the tournament, with Didier ...

Welcome my friends to the show that never ends, the Assistkings and the pass-masters who rule this game we all love so much.     Why should the goal scorers get all of the fun and attention??     THE LIST 10 WILLIAN (Chelsea) -11 assists overall -116 key passes -5 assists in his last 9 matches (3 as a sub)            The Brazilian went completely unused as a substitute in the 2-0 defeat vs Everton, but has been on the mark more often as of late, dishing assists in the Europa League, and sometimes providing the finished article in the Premier League.

      The Champions League Quarterfinals are now set....      but what we saw in the Round of 16 will indicate what the                    future of the competition holds...  Will Dembele be ready for the Quarterfinals vs United?   Will Ajax pull off yet another upset over Juve?   Are Liverpool & Barca on a collision course for the semifinals,                          with City and Juve destined for the same?   Will upsets continue to dominate the headlines, or will the old guard of Messi and Ronaldo take center stage in yet another final against each other?                        JOIN US AS WE DISSECT.                        LET'S DO THIS..................
