is anyone actually watching Brazil-Croatia? all of the matches in Brazil's group seem like a waste of time.

in another unimportant match, i predict Chile will absolutely DOMINATE Australia on Friday

Father Xmas · Post by **Father Xmas** » 11 Jun 2014, 18:17

i'll watch brazil-croatia, mb not entirely but i'll watch it. and it can tell us about brazil's level.

and yes australia are far from their best

Asmodian · Post by **Asmodian** » 12 Jun 2014, 15:56

Opening game, of course I'm watching. Croatia isn't that bad, but Brazil Is that good if you watched them in the confederations cup. They by far have the best backline in the world cup Tiago Silva,Dante,Alves,Marcelo insane...

Brazil look decent but their defense is so shaky. I'll laugh if they make it to the final...and lose.

I've followed soccer forever. I didn't watch the whole game but I saw 75% of it. It's an event Kirk and since I had the day off I figured why the fuck not?

Besides its amusing watching all these fuckwits have their predictions proven wrong.

Our predictions were both petty close. Also yeah Brazil's defense didn't have a good day, but if you followed this team you would know that their strength is in their backline. They should be solid as the tournament moves along.

Father Xmas · Post by **Father Xmas** » 13 Jun 2014, 08:12

well i predicted brazil to win, and by 2 goals, so i was the closest

Aki · Post by **Aki** » 13 Jun 2014, 16:36

I BET LESS THAN 6 GOALS ARE SCORED THE ENTIRE TOURNAMENT AND YET ALL THE FANS STILL THINK ITS EXCITING AND THE BEST SPORT IN THE WORLD

par73 · Post by **par73** » 17 Jun 2014, 15:56

goals are scoring at a rapid rate this year

Father Xmas · Post by **Father Xmas** » 17 Jun 2014, 15:59

Goodbye Australia, for one of the lowest played sports here, we did better than Spain and got the first goal against Netherlands

Hopefully Dantski threw himself off the London Bridge now that England are finished.

Father Xmas · Post by **Father Xmas** » 20 Jun 2014, 07:45

6 players of liverpool fc played that match.

suarez was the only one playing for uruguay.

if i were liverpool coach i'd do everything i could to keep suarez.

Aki · Post by **Aki** » 20 Jun 2014, 14:49

Uruguay didn't even need Forlan; England is that bad.

And Brazil still isn't looking good at all. They will fall to Germany in semis or Netherlands/Italy in the final.

I'll also predict Belgium will make it past Argentina to reach the semis.

Father Xmas · Post by **Father Xmas** » 20 Jun 2014, 21:18

you forgot about France

Aki · Post by **Aki** » 21 Jun 2014, 01:15

france will be crushed by germany

par73 · Post by **par73** » 22 Jun 2014, 16:53

this thread pretty much won't go on any longer because magne doesn't participate on mwc forums anymore

anyway, how about ghana almost beating germany 2-1! holy shit ! germany came up with the tie though. damn

US might actually qualify in the bracket of death.

also anyone notice how messi has caught fire this world cup where the last two world cups he scored maybe once or twice in the whole tournament?
NUMBAH 10

Amazing world cup so far! USA is playing good and I still believe.

holy shit soccer players are a joke...

I mean... I enjoy watching the game, but goddamn... there were at least a dozen blatant dives in the Uruguay vs. Italy match today...

They should replace refs with the players' moms, so they can literally cry to mommy ever time they come in contact with another player.

I also bet that a bunch of adult men behave like a bunch of metrosexual children by cheating, trying to tattle-tale, and bite each other. Also, apparently biting another person causes a full grown adult male to tumble to the ground and roll around in pain. These guys make Lebron look like a war hero.

Father Xmas · Post by **Father Xmas** » 27 Jun 2014, 09:29

too bad USA lost to Germany, i wanted to see France vs USA in quarters !

par73 · Post by **par73** » 27 Jun 2014, 16:27

you mean you wanted france to advance to the round of 8

lol krok

Dearest Father Xmas,

I hope you are thoroughly enjoying France's victory, because you are going to get smashed by the krauts in the quarters.

Your Friend,

where is ireland ? i haven't seen them the whole tourney

Pogue · Post by **Pogue** » 01 Jul 2014, 01:51

Meh, Ireland cares more about rugby and Gaelic football than soccer. Besides my other team is playing Belgium tomorrow. So if we beat them it's like we beat your retarded little brother who can't stand up for himself. Whatcha gonna do now?

Father Xmas · Post by **Father Xmas** » 01 Jul 2014, 07:28

Belgium is more like the son of France and Netherlands.

btw looking at how bad was Germany, France looks stronger than them

Pogue · Post by **Pogue** » 02 Jul 2014, 00:31

Well, even though we got beat, that was the most entertaining game of the tournament so far. Belgium actually look very solid. I wouldn't be surprised if they beat Argentina.

I think it's a toss up who wins at this point. There hasn't looked to be an overwhelming favorite, it seems pretty balanced overall.
