Women wait at the finish line and f#ck the winner

This is a two-panel collage meme playing on the common online misogynistic joke that women only pursue romantically successful, high-status men. The top panel, marked '2 days ago', features 16-year-old Spanish footballer Lamine Yamal wearing the Spanish national team jersey, holding the 2024 UEFA Euro championship trophy, posing happily with a young woman wearing a matching Spain jersey. The bottom panel, marked '3 weeks ago', shows the exact same woman posing affectionately with a different, unidentified man at a public event.

Overview

This is a two-panel collage meme playing on the common online misogynistic joke that women only pursue romantically successful, high-status men. The top panel, marked '2 days ago', features 16-year-old Spanish footballer Lamine Yamal wearing the Spanish national team jersey, holding the 2024 UEFA Euro championship trophy, posing happily with a young woman wearing a matching Spain jersey. The bottom panel, marked '3 weeks ago', shows the exact same woman posing affectionately with a different, unidentified man at a public event. The meme constructs a narrative implying the woman left her previous partner to pursue the now-famous, victorious footballer right after Spain won the Euro championship.

Origin notes

This meme was sourced from an RSS feed of 9GAG content, uploaded shortly after Spain won the 2024 UEFA European Championship in July 2024. It is an edited collage combining two separate, unrelated photos of the same woman with different partners to create a false humorous narrative aligned with widely shared 'gold digger' stereotype jokes online.

This meme consists of a screenshot of a tweet from user Ruby Naylor, followed by a side-by-side image collage. The tweet states that singer Shakira has 4 World Cup appearances, which is more than the Italy men's national football team's 3 appearances over the past 20 years, paired with crying laughing emojis. The left half of the collage shows Shakira smiling happily while holding a microphone above her head, performing at a World Cup event. The right half shows a distressed Italy national team player with both hands on his head, reacting to a negative match outcome, emphasizing the joke at Italy's expense for failing to qualify for multiple recent World Cup tournaments.

This is a humorous sports meme featuring a photograph of Brazilian football legend Ronaldinho wearing the iconic yellow 2002 Brazil national team jersey. He is shown drinking from a glass bottle of Corona beer, positioned next to a sideline Powerade (official sports drink sponsor) stand. The text at the top of the meme reads 'Ronaldinho if hydration breaks had existed in 2002 World Cupa' (with an intentional or accidental typo of 'Cup' as 'Cupa'). The joke plays on Ronaldinho's widely publicized reputation for enjoying partying and drinking alcohol off the pitch, implying that he would have used official match hydration breaks to drink beer instead of the intended sports drinks if such breaks existed during the 2002 World Cup. Fellow Brazilian player Kaká is visible in the background wearing a matching Brazil jersey with his name and number 8 printed on the back.

This is a two-panel side-by-side comparison meme. The left panel is captioned "Shakira the day I was born" and shows an older photograph of Colombian pop singer Shakira with long blonde highlighted hair, wearing a maroon cut-out top and low-rise dark jeans, posing against a plain grey background. The right panel is captioned "Shakira yesterday" and shows a much more recent photograph of Shakira with light brown wavy hair, wearing a yellow top and blue soccer attire, holding multiple official World Cup soccer balls and smiling against a grassy sports field background. The meme's humor comes from the fact that Shakira looks almost identically youthful in both photos despite decades passing between them, emphasizing widespread public shock that she is currently 49 years old.

This is a two-panel side-by-side comparison meme. The opening text at the top reads 'She's aging like fine wine', a common idiom referring to people who become more attractive or impressive as they get older. The left panel is labeled 'Shakira the day I was born' and features a portrait of a young Shakira with long blonde hair with dark streaks, wearing a cropped maroon top, cross necklace, and low-rise jeans, looking directly at the camera with a neutral expression. The right panel is labeled 'Shakira yesterday' and shows a recent photo of Shakira with wavy light brown hair, wearing a yellow tank top, holding multiple soccer balls, and smiling warmly at the camera. The humor comes from the observation that Shakira looks nearly as youthful in the recent photo as she did decades earlier when the meme creator was born, emphasizing how little she has visibly aged over the years.

This is a 4-panel collage meme comparing the perception of the 2026 FIFA World Cup semi-finals between general audiences and fans of Spanish football clubs Real Madrid and FC Barcelona. The top left panel features a young man removing his glasses, captioned 'WHAT NORMAL PEOPLE SEE', paired with the top right panel showing the 2026 World Cup semi-final bracket with the national teams of France, England, Spain, and Argentina positioned around the World Cup trophy. The bottom left panel shows the same man putting his glasses back on, captioned 'WHAT REAL & BARÇA FANS SEE', paired with the bottom right panel where the national team flags in the bracket are replaced with the club badges of Real Madrid (top two positions) and FC Barcelona (bottom two positions). The humorous joke relies on the long-standing intense rivalry between Real Madrid and Barcelona (known as El Clásico), implying that fans of these clubs care more about their club rivalry than international national team competitions, and view World Cup matches through the lens of which players belong to their favorite club.

This is a three-panel meme. The left column displays changing FIFA World Cup match scores between England (ENG) and Argentina (ARG): first England leads 1-0, then the score is tied 1-1, finally Argentina leads 2-1. The right column parodies the titles of the Marvel Cinematic Universe Spider-Man trilogy, with the letter 'o' in the word 'Home' replaced by a football icon. The first panel reads 'FIFA WORLD CUP Homecoming', referencing the famous England football fan slogan 'it's coming home' used when the team is performing well. The second panel reads 'FIFA WORLD CUP Far From Home' when the score is tied, and the third reads 'FIFA WORLD CUP No Way Home' when Argentina takes the lead, humorously showing how England's hope of winning fades as the match progresses.

This is an edited sports meme using a real photograph of the Argentina men's national football team celebrating their 2022 FIFA World Cup final victory over France. Gold WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) world championship belts have been digitally edited onto the waists of all visible players, including star player Lionel Messi, who is being embraced by his teammates while appearing emotional.

Argentine flags and other stadium attendees are visible in the background of the celebration scene.

This is a two-panel reaction meme using the General Hux Star Wars template, referencing international football (soccer) rivalries from the perspective of France, represented by the French flag placed in the top left of both panels. The first panel has the text "I don't care if Spain wins", showing indifference to one competing nation's victory. The second panel has the text "I just need Argentina to lose", highlighting that France holds a far stronger grudge against Argentina, likely referencing the 2022 FIFA World Cup final where Argentina defeated France to win the tournament. The meme jokes about petty national sports rivalries where defeating a disliked opponent matters more than overall tournament outcomes.

This meme consists of two sections. The top section is a hypothetical 2026 FIFA World Cup semi-final scoreboard showing France lost 0-2 to Spain at full time, with goals credited to M. Oyarzabal and P. Porro. Below the scoreboard, text reads 'Messi realizing he's gonna retire as the best goal scorer in World Cup history', followed by an edited image of Tobey Maguire's iconic smug smirk from the 2002 Spider-Man film, edited to wear an Argentina national football team jersey. The joke references Kylian Mbappé, France's star striker who was on track to potentially overtake Lionel Messi's all-time World Cup goal scoring record; with France eliminated from the 2026 World Cup, Messi's record will remain unbroken when he retires, hence the smug, self-satisfied expression.

The bottom half displays text stating 'Still doesn't qualify' next to the same man with a shocked, disappointed expression, mocking the Italian men's national football team's repeated failures to qualify for recent World Cup tournaments even as the total number of participating teams increases, referencing the common Italian exclamation of frustration 'Mamma Mia' from the original post title.

This meme uses a screenshot from a WWE promo featuring two wrestlers: AJ Styles laughing maniacally in the foreground, and The Undertaker staring forward with an intimidating, stoic expression in the background. Text placed above The Undertaker reads "Argentina scoring 2 goals in 7 minutes", while text above AJ Styles reads "England winning 1-0 with less than 15 minutes left". The joke references the 2022 FIFA World Cup quarterfinal match between Argentina and England, where Argentina scored two late goals to overturn a 1-0 England lead and win the match. AJ Styles' laughter represents the overconfidence of England fans when their team was leading late, while The Undertaker's menacing presence represents the sudden, devastating comeback by Argentina that erased England's lead.
