By The End All Neutrals Were Sympathetic Towards Senegal.

Although I think my comments about El-Aynaoui might've come across as harsher than I intended.

He'd only suffered a small cut to his forehead. It's just the forehead is nothing but skin and bone with all the blood vessels really close to the surface. So cute there always bleed spectacularly. Looking far, far worse than they actually are.

I don't think anyone wanted to see him substituted out of such an important match for something which isn't really an injury at all. So maybe it was okay to let them quickly bandage him up on the pitch for a minute or two.

However by the time they were trying to stitch and bandage him up for the second time he really needed to follow the rules, leave the pitch for treatment and let play continue.

Allowing one team to waste a full 1/10th of the total game is just ridiculous bias. Not even FIFA can expect to get away with corruption that obvious.

Of Course There's More Than One Type Of Totalitarian Capitalism.

I'm sure Pedro Pascal is familiar with State-Run Totalitarian Capitalism. State Owned Enterprises (SOE's) like Petrobras, PescaPeru, MineroPeru. And all that. However Big Tech's decision to adopt the No Nipples Rule could well be an example of State-Absent Totalitarian Capitalism. Where there are no checks on the power of Corporations. Rather like in the Captaincies before the locals got all nibbly. Or in the time of the Robber Barons during the US' Gilded Age. A small group of very rich people who own the infrastructure got together and decided this is the rule we have to live by now. Not only didn't we tell them to introduce that rule we probably don't even know who they are. We certainly didn't get a vote to put them in a position where they can decide what the rules are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cW9H4M6eQqc (1913 Massacre, Woody Guthrie, Asch, Audio, Topic).
