00:00:00.000 France lost yesterday to Spain.
00:00:02.000 And not yesterday.
00:00:02.740 France lost to Spain, which I'm not a fan of
00:00:05.260 because Spain, to me, is the most boring team that's out there.
00:00:09.240 I know Tom's a diehard fan of Spain.
00:00:10.820 He keeps defending them nonstop.
00:00:12.500 I'm not a fan of Spain.
00:00:13.160 And then Argentina yesterday is down 1-0 at the 80-something minute mark.
00:00:19.960 And then all of a sudden, Messi gets two assists,
00:00:22.960 and they end up winning the whole thing, 2-1.
00:00:25.220 So now the finals are going to be Argentina against Spain,
00:00:29.920 which it's an interesting matchup. 1.00
00:00:32.160 They say all the Muslim countries are officially eliminated
00:00:34.740 from the World Cup.
00:00:35.800 England is out now, so that was like a massive story
00:00:39.140 when you're talking about England being gone.
00:00:41.940 But, you know, Lamine Lamal is a superstar,
00:00:44.660 and he's a guy that's very capable.
00:00:47.720 For the first time, I saw how capable he was
00:00:50.000 and how aggressive he was playing, and he went after Mbappe.
00:00:52.740 He was not afraid, but there's a picture of the significance of this
00:00:57.200 that Vinny showed to us early this morning.
00:00:58.800 look at this picture folks if you go and see this picture is messy having a picture with
00:01:04.240 Lamine Lamal when he was a baby I you almost can't even believe him when you're taking a look
00:01:08.880 at this what am I is it it's it's messy it's almost like he's giving him a bath did you see
00:01:15.400 this it's like he's giving him a bath with uh Lamine Lamal right there so at first when you
00:01:22.460 show me this I'm like Vinny there's no way this is true so this is really Lamine Lamal at five
00:01:26.600 months old yes 19 years ago has this been fact checked fact check there's a unicef charity photo
00:01:32.940 at camp new where lano messi was playing for barcelona pat families entered a raffle barcelona
00:01:39.040 players were assigned by random lottery and somehow 20 year old messi ended up pairing with
00:01:44.340 this five month old baby and that's let me and them all right there like and the odds pat
00:01:49.460 go to the odds i sent you i slagged the odds guess what the odds are of this happening some guy broke
00:01:55.260 down everything pat take take a wild one in four billion one in 625 trillion this guy did the math
00:02:03.880 zoom in a little bit burt the probability of this happening says you are more than two million
00:02:10.100 times more likely to win the powerball jackpot than to have the script play out it's it is
00:02:15.360 roughly equivalent to picking one specific second out of the 20 million years one in 625 trillion
00:02:23.660 Insane.
00:02:24.340 And they're facing each other Sunday.
00:02:26.700 So here's the question.
00:02:28.180 The challenge is Bellingham was on a streak of getting two goals back-to-back.
00:02:33.300 They're two inches taller.
00:02:34.800 They're faster.
00:02:35.800 They're stronger.
00:02:36.820 They're younger.
00:02:37.860 In every way, on paper, England, even Calci had them at 54% to 46% of England winning.
00:02:46.620 But then some stuff happened.
00:02:47.680 We can't show any of this stuff.
00:02:48.660 At the end of the game, they're giving a high-five, all this stuff.
00:02:50.700 The legendary clip is where Bellingham is saying stuff to Messi,
00:02:54.440 and Messi eventually goes like this.
00:02:55.820 Okay, no problem.
00:02:57.600 I'm supposed to beat you now.
00:02:59.220 And he goes and beats him.
00:03:00.960 And so, I mean, you just have to realize.
00:03:03.460 Imagine the fans who are like, can you go to the iShowSpeed
00:03:07.740 when his last clip on his Instagram account?
00:03:09.880 If you go on iShowSpeed's Instagram account.
00:03:12.200 So he's a big Ronaldo guy.
00:03:14.120 Massive Ronaldo guy.
00:03:15.320 Cannot stand Messi to save his life.
00:03:17.640 and he is there cheering for England.
00:03:20.700 Watch this.
00:03:21.200 Just press the first one.
00:03:22.180 You can show it.
00:03:22.680 It's a public video.
00:03:23.180 This is England's first goal.
00:03:25.320 This is England's first goal.
00:03:30.100 Now watch what happens. 0.98
00:03:31.400 He's such a troll. 0.99
00:03:35.180 Wrists. 0.99
00:03:35.620 He's so...
00:03:36.080 Yep, there's your beans.
00:03:42.920 First goal, 1-1.
00:03:44.620 There's your beans.
00:03:45.320 they're throwing stuff at them and then they scored a second goal
00:03:50.140 we go they keep throwing stuff at them yeah guys so now Messi you know Messi's going against
00:04:00.760 Spain uh uh you know with with all the spectacles and the stories and everything
00:04:07.220 by the way Messi did a bunch of different interviews and he says I know Spain I play
00:04:10.840 against those guys I know what program they're a part of these are people that I know you can
00:04:15.300 you know play against them and you know what they're going to be doing there was some personal
00:04:18.920 stuff that happened politically with argentina because you know the whole war that happened
00:04:23.340 with argentina and england back in 1982 where they killed 900 people and they took over the island
00:04:28.520 that's right they took over the island and then from there in 86 the hand of god you know it says
00:04:33.960 hey it went from the hand of god now to the left foot of god which is messy being left-footed
00:04:37.780 and so the guys at the end were holding the banners calling out england this was the so
00:04:43.940 that's a political statement so it was a great game now going into spain um i don't know i it's
00:04:50.220 going to be wild tom i know you're picking spain so what's your score what's your prediction
00:04:53.180 with spain against argentina you keep saying i'm picking spain i'm not i watched them at the end
00:04:57.420 of group i heart spain fan three games at the end of group they win by a combined score of eight to
00:05:03.440 nothing and no one scored on them and i'm like they're a machine but then they look like they
00:05:08.260 were asleep and they barely got through the next two games very tight and then the machine shows
00:05:13.440 up so it's like i don't know what to say you know um yeah i i call what i see i'm not a big football
00:05:19.740 guy but i'm i look at this remember spain's only given up one goal so if argentina wins two to one
00:05:28.060 it means they score two they double the amount of goals that spain has given up in the tournament
00:05:33.380 unfortunately you know my heart goes one way but my mental my mental side goes the other way i think
00:05:41.120 it's 2-1 Spain 2-1 Spain okay first of all Argentina had more heart they played freaking
00:05:48.540 lights out they were by the shorter team what I say yesterday the first five minutes you're
00:05:52.780 going to know who's going to set the pace run a poll to see what the audience yeah and guess
00:05:56.860 what I saw Pat I saw them being physical they weren't going to get pushed around it was it was
00:06:01.720 an amazing amazing game Pat fate is on freaking there's no way there's no way Argentina's going
00:06:08.180 to lose and i just sent uh umberto a link from a guy that posted at 7 28 p.m july 11th 2021 and he
00:06:16.980 wrote argentina just beat spain at the 2026 world cup final two three and umberto can you show that
00:06:25.900 oh you're this is a guy that tweeted this is a guy that tweeted well he's running the poll he wrote
00:06:30.940 he posted this in in 2021 argentina just beat spain look at the date zoom in look at that
00:06:36.820 Argentina just beat Spain at 2026 World Cup final 3-2 July 11 2021 and this is not the producer
00:06:45.100 of Simpsons no no no but Pat I don't think that listen Spain very technical very to the book kind
00:06:53.460 of boring there's no way it's in Argentina what's your score I don't know if I'm gonna go with this
00:06:58.880 guy but let's just do I'm gonna do it 3-2 Argentina let's go all right let's go baby
00:07:04.280 A lot of goals.
00:07:05.120 Let's go.
00:07:05.560 Adam, where are you at?
00:07:07.560 So the question is what?
00:07:08.560 Who's going to win?
00:07:09.140 Who's going to win?
00:07:09.760 Give us a score.
00:07:10.560 Okay.
00:07:10.980 Well, we talked about iShowSpeed.
00:07:13.640 iShowSpeed, unfortunately, is just a hater.
00:07:18.020 So imagine, and by the way, he's a very likable guy.
00:07:21.460 But when all your passion is built on hating on the other guys.
00:07:24.900 Just give me the score first.
00:07:26.780 Give me the score first.
00:07:28.360 Well, I was going to build up to why I'm going to give you the score,
00:07:31.160 but I'll just give you the score. 0.97
00:07:32.260 The point is, Messi's the goat.
00:07:35.240 And sometimes you just cannot deny greatness.
00:07:39.320 That's my point.
00:07:40.080 It's like you're rooting against Michael Jordan.
00:07:42.340 Michael Jordan don't lose. 0.99
00:07:44.000 So I don't know how Argentina got here.
00:07:46.320 They beat multiple teams after being down in the last five minutes, two minutes.
00:07:50.720 But Messi continues to pull it off.
00:07:53.340 So stop hating on Argentina.
00:07:55.220 Just appreciate greatness.
00:07:56.600 I think they win 2-1.
00:07:57.900 Okay.
00:07:58.480 So check this out.
00:07:59.820 Here's Calci.
00:08:01.660 Look at the amount of volume, Vinny.
00:08:03.740 1.25 billion dollars and 58% is on Spain.
00:08:09.140 Yeah, I don't know.
00:08:10.380 58% is on Spain.
00:08:14.380 Okay, that's the quote of the title.
00:08:16.640 58% has Spain.
00:08:18.980 Those are all Ronaldo fans.
00:08:20.580 That is insane.
00:08:22.480 And by the way, look at all the money coming left and right.
00:08:24.340 Look at that.
00:08:24.580 $41, $11, $40, $225, $33.
00:08:28.460 Wow.
00:08:28.900 By the way, you asked me who I thought was going to win.
00:08:31.140 That's like my prediction market.
00:08:33.080 Where's my heart?
00:08:33.960 My heart is with... 1.00
00:08:35.000 Morocco. 1.00
00:08:35.820 No.
00:08:37.000 Capembre.
00:08:37.760 Canada. 0.87
00:08:39.120 You're not supposed to interrupt when I'm about to say Morocco.
00:08:41.660 No, my heart in this matchup is with Argentina.
00:08:45.620 Seeing Messi, he's the GOAT, see him go back-to-back on the way out of his career,
00:08:50.800 that's just amazing to see.
00:08:52.340 This is like Tiger Woods winning the Masters as the last major he ever wins,
00:08:56.660 and he's over 40 years old.
00:08:58.180 Yeah.
00:08:58.360 Your heart goes with the goats and the guys that have given us so much to cheer about.
00:09:03.480 My heart, I hope, Argentina wins.
00:09:05.980 Tom is just trying to not lose his audience.
00:09:07.680 Tom, change your pick then, buddy.
00:09:09.120 Do it publicly.
00:09:09.720 Change your pick.
00:09:10.380 Massive Argentinian audience and actors.
00:09:12.680 What is that?
00:09:13.600 So they have what percentage?
00:09:15.100 65 Argentina, 35 Spain.
00:09:18.640 Let's go, boys and girls.
00:09:19.720 It just means we have an audience that goes one way.
00:09:23.240 But the reality of it is, it was something very emotional about this guy winning.
00:09:27.040 Oh, my God.
00:09:27.880 Something very emotional about the guy winning yesterday.
00:09:29.940 I don't know what it was.
00:09:31.300 You see the way they protect them, the way their teammates look at him.
00:09:36.980 The guy scores the header.
00:09:38.280 Instead of people running with the guy who scored the header,
00:09:40.120 they run after Messi.
00:09:41.880 And he gave that pass with a right foot as a lefty.
00:09:45.680 They put him in the complete right side.
00:09:47.080 It's like, why would you put him there?
00:09:48.580 It was unbelievable.
00:09:50.580 So Spain, Argentina, I think they're both great passers.
00:09:54.780 They're very technical.
00:09:56.360 It's going to be a good matchup.
00:09:57.500 But, you know, the Cal she's got those guys.
00:10:01.480 We'll see what happens.
00:10:02.220 Every year, we do this one event.
