Ah yes, the friendles
Here in Belgium, our media goes completely insane each time our bunch of overhyped selfloving $#@! ass national team players have a friendly.
Both media and team take it as if it were a final. So the usual happens meaning we field the strongest team in the known formation playing 300km/u against teams that use a friendly for what it is actually used for : experiment and try different combinations.
So they hype the $#@! out of those gucciprada $#@!s each time they grab a victory.
... Only to then completely disappoint and draw/lose against any random opponent in games that actually matter, and no one gets why
$#@!ing friendlies
