If you’re into dark humor, this is for you 😆🤣 And yeah, it sounds like the guy in the video is British, so understanding him can be a bit challenging. Write in the comments if you got it 👇🏻

@Mackenzie Marino haha, some accents are hard... Scottish accent is notoriously difficult to understand - and so are hard cockney accents, or liverpool accents

Eu acho que a final vai ser Espanha x Noruega porque quero ver os espanhóis — as pessoas mais grosseiras que já encontrei — terem os ovos esmagados pelo Haaland.
