#south africa v italy

[glimmerofawesome]

Thembi Kgatlana scores in the 90+2' minute to give South Africa a 3-2 lead and the win against Italy. This win marked South Africa's first ever at a World Cup, and the first time they've ever qualified for the knockout rounds.

Semifinals

Out of the 32 original teams, only four teams are left, split into two semifinals: Spain v. Sweden, and Australia v. England. This is the culmination of three weeks of joy, passion, and heartbreak…and some really good soccer. These teams have all found their grooves, their momentum, and there is so much on the line now that everyone will be giving it their all. At this point, I don’t know what else I can say about these teams, but I went back through each team’s journey so far to look at the results so far in the tournament. 

Spain, FIFA ranked 7

Won 3-0 over Costa Rica

Won 5-0 over Zambia

Lost 4-0 to Japan

Won 5-1 over Switzerland

Won 2-1 over Netherlands

Sweden, FIFA ranked 3

Won 2-1 over South Africa

Won 5-0 over Italy

Won 2-0 over Argentina

Won in penalties over USA

Won 2-1 over Japan

Australia, FIFA ranked 10

Won 1-0 over Republic of Ireland

Lost 3-2 to Nigeria

Won 4-0 over Australia

Won 2-0 over Denmark

Won in penalties over France

England, FIFA ranked 4

Won 1-0 over Haiti

Won 1-0 over Denmark

Won 6-1 over China

Won in penalties over Nigeria

Won 2-1 over Colombia

I think that both games could go either way, and it would be arrogant and stupid on my part to try and predict anything from here on out. It is a guarantee that we will have a brand-new champion; none of these teams have won a world cup before. England and Sweden have gotten to the semifinals and won medals before, but Spain and Australia are at this point for the first time in program history. 

One thing that most people won’t know is that the players on these teams have all played together on club teams, becoming friends, and even dating. England’s Lucy Bronze and Keira Walsh play in Barcelona with nine of Spain’s players, and Sweden’s Fridolina Rolfo. Australia’s Steph Catley and Caitlin Foord play for Arsenal with England’s Lotte Wubben-Moy, while Australia’s Sam Kerr plays for Chelsea with four players from England, and three players from Sweden. No matter which teams go through, players will witness their friends and colleagues triumphs and losses–a bittersweet end to a world cup that has been full of rich, new, powerful experiences.

Tbf 2/3 races in the us are just shitty tracks and the potential new one will also be shit lbr 😭 That said we really don’t need 2 in spain (madrid track ��) or italy, i agree. Personally would love to see a new track in south america or africa rather than eu or us

100% agreed. just v laughable how much european fans get up in arms about new usa races when we have 9 races that are accessible to us fairly easily. like genuinely asia, south america, australia all deserve more races because travelling in those areas is significantly harder than in europe and africa deserves to finally be on the schedule !

[mrs-monaghan]

I might be biased (actually, I’m totally biased lmao) but outside of the fandom I feel like JK and JM are the most popular and well-known members. People around me like my sisters, my boyfriend, friends, coworkers… if I ask them to name a few members they will definitely say JM and JK, maybe Suga as well and JHope since Lollapalooza. Maybe it depends on whether people are on Twitter or socmed or if they keep up with music releases in general. I find it interesting that photoshoot rumor has been automatically linked to Tae and JK. If it’s true I’m curious to see how it will come out. I’m a bit on the fence to be honest but hey, those two look handsome so I’ll take it anyway haha maybe I’ll get called out for saying this but I think the fandom and especially a certain kind of fans tend to overestimate Tae’s popularity outside of Army.

Okay anon. This sounds like a fan game. Let's do it. I'm on Google. I won't have enough room for images so just take my word for it 😂😂😂. I'm just gonna type in a bunch of countries. Here we go.

Korea - Jimin (we know this one so let's just drop it here)

US - JK

Japan - V (with 1.7 million votes)

UK - Jhope

Now that one surprises me. Which, idk why coz he's fucking amazing but I didn't expect him to be the most popular here. I mean good for him though 💜

Australia - Jimin

India - V

South Africa - JK

Russia - V

France - V

Germany - Jimin

Brazil - Jimin

Turkey - Jimin

Argentina - Jimin

China - V (Damn son!)

Vietnam - Jimin (I'm shooketh 👀)

Nigeria - Jhope (why do I keep getting surprised 😂😂)

Malaysia - JK

Singapore - JK

Canada- Suga (finally!)

Italy- JK

Thailand - JK

Who's the most popular member in the world you ask? Drumroll please........ 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁 JK!!!!!

Anon this game was fun in the beginning but now I have to stop because its getting depressing. 21 countries I looked up. Where's the love for Namjin?

Twenty years around the world by John Guy Vassar 

https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/70180

LoC ClassG: Geography, Anthropology, Recreation Subject    Voyages around the world Subject       Voyages and travels

PREFACE.

Early in life the author of these letters suffered from ill-health, and necessity obliged him to seek more genial climes in order to escape the rigors of our northern winters. Duty towards his only brother and a beloved uncle induced him to sketch his travels, and keep them advised of his movements. His letters passing into the hands of kind friends, for perusal, led to further inquiries; and demands for publication in a weekly paper in his native city, were the result.

He has always hesitated to come before the Public, although constantly solicited and urged by his friends to do so, as a duty he owed to society; at length, through constant importuning, and to avoid the clamors of those he loves and esteems, he has concluded to accede to their wishes. This book is the result.

Traveling becomes a passion with some, and in this instance, a decided one. Necessity at first, with improvement in health, and finding himself better on the move than when quiet, sight-seeing and obtaining general information became more and more desirable.

After having seen every State and Capital in his own country, his desire was to visit every Capital in Europe. After having seen the antiquities and works of art of Italy, Greece, and Turkey, his ambition led him to see the older objects of Egypt and Asia Minor. Then came the desire to visit the Celestial Empire, and the East Indian world.

The West Indian Islands brought a disposition to see those of the Pacific, and those of the Mediterranean, the Levant, and the Polynesian, Canary, Cape de Verde, Azores. North America,[vi] including the Canadas, having been seen, South America in all parts could not be neglected. Northern Africa, Egypt, Syria, Algeria, and Morocco had been visited; but the western and south-western coast of Africa, the Gulf of Guinea, demanded their share of effort and exposure. When in China, he desired to visit Japan, but Commodore Perry had not yet made a treaty. While at Singapore, he wished to embark for Australia; but no opportunity offering during the typhoon season, he was obliged to renounce the idea. Last Spring he made an attempt to get around from the south coast of Africa, but without success. Had he succeeded, his twenty-one years of travel would have probably closed his extended wanderings, as the whole world would have been seen, large portions of it having been repeatedly visited.

He has great reason to be thankful to the Almighty for his preservation of life and health. Surrounded by dangers of every name and nature, while scores of his companions have been swept off by shipwreck, cholera, fever, assassins, and barbarous tribes of savages, or Indians, he has passed unscathed and unharmed.
