WELCOME TO ARROWHEAD STADIUM!!! The iconic home of the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs is the site of a huge World Cup quarter-final clash between Argentina and Switzerland. The Albiceleste produced a remarkable comeback against Egypt in the last round and are looking for a lot less drama this time around on their way to the semis, but the Swiss have been very solid in all areas throughout the tournament and will provide a brutal test for the reigning champions. This should be all kinds of fun, and you’re welcome to join us to follow and comment all the action. Vamos!

Matchday Thread Rules
We don’t have a lot of rules here, but there are a few things to keep in mind when joining our matchday threads:
Even if the referee sucks or we lose the game, watch the swearing. It’s just unnecessary. Also, don’t discuss illegal streaming links. Those who do it will be warned, and those who post links will be instantly banned. Finally, be nice to each other. This is a Barcelona community and we don’t need to offend one another.
Have fun with the game! Forever and ever, no matter the competition, VISCA EL BARÇA!
