2014 FIFA World Cup

[Mongoose1983]

Great game to watch! Mexico had many chances to defeat this rather dull and confused Brazil!

Brazil 0, Mexico 0...

What a great game, yes, no score...but it was edge on your seat kinda game...Mexico's goalie...Guillermo Ochoa...wow...he must've saved about four clear goals...definitely the MVP for Mexico so far. Brazil dominated the first part...and Mexico really attacked in the second half...with Brazil always dangerous in counterattacks.

This draw was great for Mexico...all they need is at least draw with Croata (given that Croatia beats Cameroon), and they advance to the second round.

Even though England lost, that's not any England team i've watched in the last 20 years. England were, inventive, played a passing game and attack minded, it was only the left side of their defense that let them down.

Italy will soon be smashing the Brits with their usual lackluster way of playing, 9 defenders and 1 on forward. Not expecting to see any beauty on this match, but in a worldcup anything can happen. Gonna go grab a bag of chips, some Coronas, sit back and to enjoy!

[Hector]

Australia gave Netherlands all they could handle, including scoring the goal of the tournament so far...but the Dutch's talent prevailed in the end...and won 3-2.

[Hector]

Chile 2...Spain 0.

Spain, defending World Cup champions..are eliminated.

Adios, Espana...

Congrats to Chile...now on to Netherlands, you guys could actually win the group.

Chile will have to beat Netherlands to win the group...but the Dutch wins the group with just a tie, due to goal differential.

Either way, looks like Netherland and Chile advances.

[Hector]

Going by present standings...looks like Mexico is heading towards a clash with Netherlands, gulp. That one has me really nervous. The potent speedy Dutch strikers against the rather slow Mexican defense...on paper...it looks really tough for Mexico...but they do have the keeper of the moment, Ochoa...so hopefully he can cool down Van Persie and company...and have successful counter-attacks of their own.

Good game, Chile played well. don't know what happened to Spain this year

[Random Axe]

I just read that the winning team gets 35 million dollars. I hope it's the Nigerian team. We'll wire it to their bank account when they send us their password.

There's lots of yellow cards and red cards, but on such an international stage sadly there are no green cards.

^^^^hilarious

damn, I was rooting for England but I have to admit Uruguay played a better game. looking forward to next weeks USA v. Germany

[Hector]

Uruguay has Luis Suarez...he finally played in his first game, after having rested his knee...he's arguably the best striker in the English Premier League...the dude is a beast.

Uruguay will be dangerous for anyone with Suarez in the lineup...having said that...they are one of the oldest teams in the World Cup...along with Argentina.


Colombia 2, Ivory Coast 1...that was a firecracker of a game.


Right now...Greece vs Japan...a borefest, zzzzz.....lol.


Congrats on your team...Lady Zod!

I was thinking the same thing about J v Greece. is it me or are the Greeks playing dirty?

There was a period in the second half where England dominated and Uruguay was showing their age.

[Nostalgiabuff]

^^^yeah, but unfortunately, England could not pull it together enough to score again
