Not really.
Messi sucks at penalties. Not the first big penalty he's missed.
Peru screwed the pooch. Iceland playing tough. Nigeria is overmatched again. Ronaldo is playing out of his mind, De Gea choked

Best I've seen Mexico play. They played team ball instead of hero ball.

Germany won't make the final 4. This tournament is wide open. Brazil is definitely not a lock to me although they get the most calls. USA really screwed the pooch in qualifying. I hope Bruce Arena never shows his face again. What a fucking loser.

Agree on US soccer. I run an Academy program, and I teach our kids a European style of soccer rather than what the US does.

This whole tournament is wide open. Swiss playing Brazil tough

Serbia absolutely dominated Costa Rica, which is a very good squad by CONCACAF standards. Fuck Brazil. Glad the Swiss salvaged a point.

I missed the Serbia game. I'm not a fan of Brazil, so I was happy to see the Swiss draw

Costa Rica is a tough squad but Serbia was dominating them. Just didn't show up on the scoreboard.

A lot of fouls...game didn't have much flow and is quite possibly the worst game yet.

Belgium is going to dominate Panama and it wont even be close. Wouldn't be surprised to see Belgium win it all honestly.

Yeah 2nd half they came out strong.

Tunisia goalie looked like he fell asleep on that last goal by England

Brazil rarely does well in world cups played in Europe and i think it will continue, i think it will come down to France (sure i hope they don't win) Germany ( same as France ) and Spain.. Portugal can dream, who knows.. if the best player in history continues to do miracles they can go all the way. As an italian it's painful to watch a world cup that doesn't involve us and as a Milan supporter i am devastated because probably this week the Uefa adjudicatory chamber will kick us out from the Europa League

I only got to watch the first half of England. They look like the same team as always; doesn't make the most out of their opportunities. A lot of bad passes out of the back 4. An elite team scores 3, maybe 4 goals that game. They are lucky Tunisia didn't score more.

I think Belgium crashes the party this Cup. Mexico might make it to the final 8.

This is my first year watching the World Cup. Never gave a shit about soccer, but my girl and her family love it so I decided to give it a try. They're from Mexico so it was exciting to see them get a win. The house went crazy when they finally scored.
