###❌ This is not a thread for:

  • Comments that aren't related to football.
  • Trolling or baiting other users or fanbases.
  • Comments about an ongoing game better suited for the Match Thread.
  • Shitposting, brigading or excessive meta discussion.
  • Any other kind of toxic or unreasonable behaviour.

If there's no Match Thread for the match you're watching you can:

  • Create one yourself.
  • Ask /u/MatchThreadder for one. You just need to send a PM to him with the subject "Match Thread" and the body "Team A vs Team B" (for example, "Inter Milan vs. Udinese") to get one from this great bot 🤖

The bizarre Stories of Argentinian Football: Day 8

A- Despite it not being allowed in Argentina, Red Bull acquired 80% of a Federal A (3rd division) team this year.

B- In 2016, Liniers (Primera D – 5th division) had to straighten their field, as the boundary lines didn’t form 90° angles; in other words, the field wasn’t a rectangle. The pitch stayed that way 30 years before this modification.

C- Gimnasia de Mendoza played in 9 different seasons in the 1st division, all of them between 1970 (first year) and 1984 (last). They have never been relegated from that division.

D- In 2021, Deportivo Español (Primera C – 4th tier) started to pay their players’ bonuses with cryptocurrency.

Bonus: Israel is being worldwide news, sadly. On a less serious note, Chiqui Tapia is currently part of the 2030 WC fiasco, as he's part of the Conmebol board that acepted the atrocious logistics it will have. Well, both Israel and Tapia can be combined into today's bonus. Previous to the 2018 WC, Argentina was going to play a friendly vs Israel in Jerusalen; however, it got cancelled. Tapia apologized later, and said that he cancelled it as a "contribution to World peace".

If you didn't read my last post - the bonus isn't part of the quiz, it's just another (true) story that I felt like adding. Every quiz from now on will have one.
