Punchlines to end on a lighter note: If football had a spa day, this match would be it—lots of drama, zero extra benefits. And remember, the only thing tighter than a defender's marking is a diagonal pass that somehow finds the back of the net; talk about precision aiming. Sniper-level humor: I told my GPS to find the shortest route to the stadium, but it just kept recalculating—apparently even my directions need a ref’s whistle every now and then.
