Not even Crepao, more like Kerepao. I mean these guys don't even try to do their homework's before commentating such big tournaments matches. Hell almost all commentators in Iran mispronounce the PGPL's foreign players names
It should be a crime for Iranians to be England fans!
All Iranian England fans should be round up, put in reeducation camps and shown patriotic movies!
Haters like me are giddy that Germany and Portugal are out. Now just have to pray that the Swiss beat England (Swiss team is an affront to their own racist country so double points), and Turkey beat the Dutch (burn the asses of xenophobic Dutch voters).
That's why they created it. To take away from unwanted teams and decide the winners and so many people say it is a great thing that they can determine results behind closed doors. We do have many Fardins here never forget.
Previously there were 15 people one could bribe to decide a game (11 starters, coach and 3 refs). Now there are 16 people.
If these 16, 5 are key (much more influential) and cost more. Main ref, VAR ref, Goalkeeper, striker and coach. Line refs are next.
Then there are the unseen people...for example, who draws those lines that show someone is offside? If it is done automatically, who has access to manipulate the software? I mean the possibilities are endless.
Then there is doping...
At the end of the day... football is a high stakes game and manipulation has always been part of human behaviour.
You can choose to dwell on that, or choose to ignore and enjoy the beautiful game.
You can be a Fardin and have a happy life, or a Gharoon and have a morose life.
Netherlands to beat Turkey. I cant stand Turkish fans and since a lot of them overlap with Azeri separatists they can lose for all I care.
Also imagine the war in Amsterdam after 🤣
Spain look the most steady but with Carvajal red card and Cucurella LB not the most promising against France wingers of Mbappe, Dembele etc they have a lot of work.

Afaik regarding the doping, there is mandatory testing required by players to submit urine samples before the AC and FIFA tournaments. Some leagues take it further and do blood tests like PL and Serie A. It's one reason by Pogba got caught. Though in a league like PGPL I don't think it's stopping anyone from hitting PEDs since there definitely is no good check.
And regarding your other points, I have no doubt corruption is massive in the football world. Just look at La Liga and the Real Madrid/Barcelona monopoly. Or even Mehdi's Porto getting unnecessary penalties for so many years.
BUT I will also say we are reactionary people and love to say things without evidence, and we often reject evidence in favor of our own opinion. Like the whole offside deal with Qatar, many fan cameras showed the call was correct but selectively chose angles and believed whatever we wanted to believe to cope.
In the end you just have to make informed opinions and be careful of not falling into trap of conspiracy theories that don't have much evidence

these commentators complaining about how difficult and unfair it is for players having to play extra minutes in the tournament is laughable. Saying they need to go directly to the PKs.
20+ years ago, teams could only substitute 2 players, and they would be running the entire game. Now you have the players standing still for 90% of the time, just using short passes waiting for that one opportunity, AND they get 6 subs while they all have personal trainers.
