The South East Asian Games final was pretty dramatic, with 7 red cards 
shown and stoppage time goals each half of the game. 2nd half's one was funny because Indonesia thought the ref blew for full time so they switched off and allowed the Thais to equalise
Was watching the highlights when I heard Beckham's name so I did a double take at the squad list and realised that the Indonesians had a Ronaldo too and a Rio

One thing I find interesting is that attacking talent honestly exists in droves but "bad" teams, leagues etc are usually marked by having atrocious defence which I guess is the harder thing to have natural skill for in the first place.

I'm not sure about natural skill but defending is more about learning, attacking is more instinctive and down to technique on the ball and ability to turn and run. Weaker leagues don't have the coaching quality so the players never learn how to defend properly.
On the other hand decent defenders can rise up the leagues, attackers can hit a ceiling pretty quickly. Couple of decent attackers (double figures exclusing penalties in shorter season than 38 matches) left my domestic league in the last couple of years and they struggle to get any minutes in mid table Portugese team and bottom of Serie A team respectively. Once they cannot bully poor defenders with their pace or basic flicks they aren't worth shit.

That instinctiveness is the natural "skill" I think. Also shows in women's football were even in the top flight defending is what's glaringly weaker as well (though it leads to women's football having higher goal totals).

Shouldn't the ref delay the freekick until the team is back? I mean sure, this way it's more funny, but I think the ref is at fault here.

Yeah, never doubted that. But I do watch German 2nd/3rd league and they also have shitty refs (3rd league also has no VAR). And some of their games are insane as well.
Wanted to know the opinion of other people :D

You should understand that there are 8.3582221e+48 (83,582,221,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) (83 million billion billion billion billion) possible subreddit names in the standard subreddit URL namespace; roughly 1.2 million of those have been claimed. That's less than one billionth-billionth-billionth-billionth of one percent. Statistically speaking, Reddit is cosmically empty. It's wide-open!
But at least 1 of those subreddits -- /r/AgainstHateSubreddits -- isn't wide open.
There's a topic.
