And again it's obvious Brazil won't be champion. They played quite well, but definitely no match for some of the better teams in the competition.
Mexico played really well too, especially their keeper was phenomenal.
Couldn't watch the Match, had to take my brother to the airport but when i get there people are watching the screen in the screen that is supposed to display the flights xD Damn, people were so absorbed i swear i could have stolen an airplane.
Remember his name guys. Memo's beast. I wonder if Corona could've done the same.
My money is on Russia, 2-1
So. It's on. I don't have a single idea how it will go.
Поехали!
crosses fingers for a tie
I'm rooting for russia, since I was born there, but overall don't really care for either team.^^
Well that was kinda boring. Our guys are as wooden as always unfortunately.

А тебя это почему-то удивляет.
At least this is a tie for now. No need for "heroic overcoming" in second half. Yet..
Hey, I was right…what a surprise.
YESS!!! Go KOREA!!
대한민국!!!
edit: Oh goddam it. Tied again. xD
Tie tie tie tie tie tie tie
The score is tieeeeeed
FUCK YEAH!!!!!

Good. Very good. rubs hands
Eh, I don't know? Who's "us"?
Meh, it was an okay match. I was obviously cheering for my Korean team, but I'll take a draw.
And Noqanky has it right! 대한민국!!!

I'm Korean so I meant Korean team.
I guess Belgium is safe to advance and I hope Korea keeps this up for the other games.

Oh, I see. Well I think Korea is going to advance too.
And to answer your question: nah; this Sunday we have to play against Russia and you guys against Algeria. South Korea - Belgium isn't until next Thursday.
YESS!!! Go KOREA!!

Btw, what did you thought about Mexico´s game?
It hurts to support Russia.
But it could have been so much worse.
Btw, what did you thought about Mexico´s game?
I was really really pleased. It felt like Costa Rica's match against Uruguay – unexpected, but extremely pleasant. If there was a time for the Mexican team to prove my impressions wrong, this was it and I am glad of it.
I just wish they had scored a goal to wake Brazil up, and to ensure a ticket to the second round. I guess the Mexico - Croatia match will be rather interesting now.
So, now that every country has played at least one match, I'd say that Germany is by far the biggest favourite to win the cup. I don't think any other country even came close to playing as well as they did. France was pretty good too, but at this point it's hard to say how good they really are when they've got to face an opponent that isn't Honduras (and Ecuador and Switzerland may be better, but they both probably won't be that much of a threat to France either). Then there's also Italy, who weren't really super spectacular; but I still expect them to do quite well and get far in the tournament (I'm hoping for a reapeat of the semi-finals of EURO 2012, when Italy beat Germany while everyone thought that Germany would win the cup with ease).
Brazil, Spain, Uruguay and Argentina have all been kind of disappointing so far. They were all countries that I expected to do well before the tournament started, but after what they've shown us so far, I don't see them living up to those expectations. Spain may still be able to get their shit together and get something done, though, but it won't be as easy for them as it was in previous tournaments.
Mexico and Colombia may "surprise" us and kick some of the traditional big names out of the tournament after the group stages. Costa Rica also got off to a good start, but I don't know if they can keep it up. Belgium was decent, but didn't really live up to the hype surrounding them if you ask me. Portugal should still be able to get over that disaster and make it to the next round, then we'll see what they can do there.
I'm also looking forward to the remaining matches of Chile, Ivory Coast, Japan, Switzerland and Bosnia. They've all been decent, and I'm curious about what they can do and how far they can get.
The Netherlands just suck.
The Netherlands are going to win and you know it.

There you go! Fixed it up for you :)
The Netherlands are going to win and you know it.
Yeah definitely, ORANJE WORDT KAMPIOEN!
Hmm, I think Italy are the real ones to watch tbh.
Cut out some of the slack passing they had against England and they could really dominate games.
Pirlo is a threat to any team.
There you go! Fixed it up for you :)
Haha, ok, nice one ;)
But in all seriousness, I do think the German team was the best team so far. The Netherlands did well and their win was impressive, but especially their first half wasn't super great.
To be honest though, I'm actually not a big fan of either of them. I'd like to see an outsider win the cup.
I'm all for germany vs netherlands as the finale.^^

I'm not. We're still recovering our national trauma from 1974.
Robben scores and Holland lead!
Edit:
HOLY SHIT, WHAT A QUICK RESPONSE
Cahill equalizes!!!
Nice one.^^ I'm certain the'll win.
And I hope spain will lose. xD
Lol, tied again.
effing hell Cahill
I'd go as far as to say that's one of the best World Cup goals in living memory. Phenomenal.
Nice one.^^ I'm certain the'll win.
And I hope spain will lose. xD
Lol, tied again.
I'm with you brother. I'm hoping We'll be able to knock the spaniards out of the WC
Australia sure plays much better at the moment.
Fellaini yesterday, Cahill today
Moyes Boys
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Cahill Is still a dirty bastard It seems.
The Dutch disappoints greatly.
Australia is the better team atm.
Netherlands will change their playstyle in the second half I'm sure. They can't continue like that…
Both teams are playing well . Netherlands needs to step up their game though.
So are we gonna see crying spaniards in a couple hours or are they gonna step up their game?^^
That penalty was an unreasonably high punishment.

There will be tears, but they will be tears of joy after they thrash Chile 3-0

You may be right, but they won't win this tournament.
And yay, australia 2-1.
Edit: Tie.^^
Not anymore. Depay scores.
Oh wow, mistake from the keeper and 2-3 netherlands. Right after australia had a huge chance.
what a shame this 3rd but of netherland, It was australia's goalkeeper fault…
To me, it's an amusing coincidence that both sides have a goalscorer who's missing the 3rd match.
(Van Persie & Cahill)
A really good game overall. Many goals, nice back and forth and fast paced. Now let's all await the great loss of spain.^^
Great game. More even than I expected. That handball penalty was retarded though. I kind of want Chile to win so that the Netherlands can advance right now, but I really want Spain to win.
I want Spain to be humiliated.
A really good game, especially in its second half. As much as I love the Netehrlands team, Cahill's goal was amazing.
Spain shall go down in the next match. Chile shall prevail.
Please Chile, don't disappoint me :I
