The rhythm of the season just get’s broken up some how. My Saturday habits are put on hold for national glory(\s). Maybe watching a game, following the goal reports, he soothing monotony of Final Score, Match of the Day …all just gone.
Surely it is one of the levelers of the game. If you are a big enough club to have international class players, in the past you had to accept that those players would be missing for part of the season. You have a big enough squad, manage around it. Chance for the lower reaches of the table to make up some ground. Chance for some youngsters to get first team experience.
I’m Uruguayan, all I care about is international breaks and tournaments. I can understand other’s opinion because european qualifiers suck. There’s too many teams that suck and there aren’t many interesting matches.
Here in SA this break we have Arg vs Uru and Bra vs Arg, so yeah it’s a big thing down here, and super attractive for any football fan
We have Malta and North Macedonia lmao
