“It feels wrong for a game to be interrupted like that.” Chris Wittyngham, Nigel Reo-Coker and Marcelo Balboa discuss whether hydration breaks are changing the rhythm of World Cup matches 💧

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 I hope @Fifacom listens. Infantino is killing the game.

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 If we don’t call it out now the premier league will start using this or Laliga because of revenue

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 It just all for marketing dollars 💵 that FIFA signed with the broadcasters l. It pathetic, this isn’t American football 🏈 or NBA

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 In australia we hae it but it only for temperature obove 30. Night matches dont need it

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 For football it’s 45 minutes no breaks. You fundamentally cannot change that, it destroys the game. Football is all about momentum it needs to flow for that to happen..breaking the momentum destroys the Rhythm of the match.. 95% of matches will be dogshit becuase of it

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 Ruins the beautiful game

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 They're not wrong on all points.

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 The Caracao-Germany game was a prime example of this. Caracao were just getting on the front foot after getting battered for the first 15 minutes. It completely killed any momentum they had, and Germany regrouped and went about battering them again

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 It’s totally wrong

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 “WATER BREAKS” = “GLOBAL WARMING” ADVERTISEMENT. ABSOLUTELY KILLS THE BEAUTIFUL GAME!!! WHY ISNT THW ENTIRE WORLD FED UP WITH THE HORRIBLE “RULE”?????

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 This dude never played. His commentary is awful. He wakes up a victim and offended.

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 Why would they have a water break in Qatar? There was no need during the Qatar World Cup.

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 It’s all about $$$. Get those commercial breaks in.

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 It destroys the flow of the game. Curaçao was going toe to toe with the Germans yesterday until the break. The German used the opportunity to regroup and boom. They put 2 past them after the break. They can't handle the Germans, but they had their flow destructed by the break.

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 Exactly! The “water breaks” should be illegal. Stopping the moment is a crime.

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 Not that serious Torturing the played with water?

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 Former players need to speak out more about this

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 I thought half time was meant for that. Why introduce another stoppage within the halves?

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 Any world cup from now on will be trash how do you puse a game in the middle of it, before the middle of it ???

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 There are definitely games that need it. Brazil-Morocco was one of them. And if some areas need it, then all games need to have it for balance. I understand what FIFA uses the breaks for and that teams use it for advantage, but that’s reality. I hate it but I understand it.

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 私はトイレ🚾行けてお茶☕️も淹れられるから良いと良いと思います。

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 Look I am FRENCHamerican & was raised in US. It ruins everything it touches or at least trires. Wish they never got the memo. I live in Argentina rivercplate socio. the only thing that’s maybe a quarter of the passion/ energy/love is your college football . Stick w that pls!

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 Worse than vuvuzelas

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 I hope this nonsense stops after this tournament?

@ChrisWittyngham @marcelobalboa17 Agree 100%…..
