Brazil World Cup 2014 Discussion Thread
We're about half way through and the group winners are starting to take shape so let's discuss what's happened and what's still to happen!
The highlights thus far:
- Spain are shocking
- England are even worse
- Belgium qualify! Yay!
- The Netherlands are the most consistent
- Germany are not bad
- Portugal suck
- USA! USA! USA!

Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
This world cup has been so open for teams this year, Iran so nearly drew against Argentina what just says quite a lot. At the start of the cup I did predict a Spain vs Brazil final but that isn't happening any time soon! Holland have just been quite amazing so far, RVP's goal though! I thought that was so good.. As my prediction of Spain vs Brazil has gone to waste, I'll change it to maybe Holland vs someone, not quite sure as of yet!

Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
Holland vs Germany looks likely I'd say!
-
Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
All I gotta say is GO GERMANY!!!

Currently supporting the USA until they get ko'd in the quaters

Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
Saw the end of the Greece v Ivory Coast game. Samaras (Greece) is a dick. The referee awarded a penalty for him tripping up over himself! The replay clearly shows when he's going for the shot he catches the back of his own foot! His resulting penalty in the 92nd minute was converted and it knocked out the Ivory Coast! Bullshit man

Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
With the refs in question in almost every match, you have to ask yourself it a punch to the throat/back or a bite worth trying, cos they seem to pay off more then not. They do need to get a better ref system, use the cams as they already use goal line tech, why not double check!

True. It a world across the global.
I was impressed with mexico.
They might be taking the cup too.
Only the next USA match can say how good they are.
Brazil at their own home town.... What else can we say?

Cause they didnt had to use 1..
Soccer is for human.. Imagine with all the tech .. It will just get ruin and more political instead of game play.
Then would all matches be stopping most of the time for off sides.

Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
Suárez should be banned from a couple of matches. What a child! Biting a player in his shoulder.. Really, what the hell?
-
Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
He should be banned for life, that is his 3rd confirmed biting victim.

Really? I was watching that game, not only did Greece deserve to win, but Samaras actually got clipped by the Ivory Coast player when he pulled back to shoot.. Ivory Coast player clearly made contact with Samaras. I don't know what you were watching?
All the football punters & commentators knew it was a stone wall penalty.. you should look at that again..

Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
Netherlands and Mexico will be a good match in my opinion, I am thinking that Netherlands will take the edge and win that game, Costa and Greece have both been quite amazing so far but... Costa will take the victory.

Costa Rica... Damn... They were the team I was expecting to drop everything within the group stages, here they are.. within the final 8 of the world cup.. This is just so open.

Greek was better on this game indeed.But that penaltys...

Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread

I mean... I do hope Algeria wins... but that wont happen!
Actually, if Algeria wins against Germany, they might as well win the world cup :P

Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
The Germans HAVE to win, if the Dutch don't win the World Cup it'll be the Germans
-
Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
France to win 2 goals to nil, whilst Germany will probably net 3 goals or more.
-
Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
I got the France score right!!! Germany and Algeria.. what a game!
-
Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
On the money with the France score and the total goals in the Germany game, could've won some money on that mate!
-
Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
Algeria deserves the win, few referee calls where invalid.
All and all, algeria destroyed germany, and made history today.
-
Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
Congrats Argentina. The ending to that game was intense and heartbreaking for Switzerland.
USA! USA! I really don't want watch my top two teams go head to head (USA / Argentina), but I really want the US to move further.
-
Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
Round of 16's are all over now, been some good games!
Brazil will face Columbia in their quarter final! France vs Germany, Netherlands and Costa Rica and finally Argentina vs Belgium
I predict, Argentina, Netherlands, France and Brazil will all defeat their opponents in the quarters!

You might want to change "Argentina vs USA" :(:

Argentina vs Belgium*
USA tried so hard but just couldn't make it happen. That was an amazing 30 minutes of football.
-
Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
I was on the edge of my seat shouting for the USA, so frustrating that Jones and a few others couldn't convert some amazing chances. Felt Bradley, whilst he was the obvious main man, sometimes on the edge of the box tried to do it solo and cocked up on a few occasions

I was screaming at Bradley. He had so many opportunities. But, hes just a normal guy... Hes not perfect.
But Tim Howard though!

Re: The Big Brazil World Cup 2014 Thread
Tom Howard man! The Yank Tank! He was on fire, easily one of the best goalkeepers of the World Cup, only the Mexican fella comes close

Just goes to show how much they rely on Silva and Neymar. Any team that relies on two players, isn't a good team in my eyes.

I completely agree, you can see a similar situation at Real Madrid, though it's nowhere near as bad as Brazil have it, if Ramos doesn't play, the defence seems to fall a part, if Ronaldo isn't playing, they have little attacking momentum, even with Bale.
Barcelona on the other hand were a great team under Guardiola in a sense that he knew to take advantage of 11 players on the field you needed them to play as a team.
I admit I wanted Brazil to win, I've never liked Germany :P, but on stoppage time it looked like they let Oscar get round them easily. Well done to Germany anyway, no team deserves to go out like Brazil did.

Yes, Argentina already lost against Germany back in 2010(4-0) i can remember that day still today, also the players know it well. But it's been 24 years that argentina does not go a final.
My opinion? the best team win(I'm already proud of this team).

Pretty weird that your country isn't showing it on normal television, not sure if this one is in English, I just googled some and this had some coverage regarding the final.. I presume it will show the game live http://www.tsmplug.com/world-cup-live-stream/

Re: Brazil World Cup 2014 Discussion Thread
I'm from Germany and I don't care at all. Lol.
But it was very entertaining, specially Messi's sad face. :'(
Also, people on TV said Argentina Vs Netherlands was boring, but I've to decline. It was very interesting, because both teams gave all to the max and Netherlands got pwned by bad luck in the final 11 meter shots. Netherlands was better than Argentina IMHO tho and they should have been in final with Germany. Honestly, I believe Netherlands could pwn Germany, but this way, we won, hm.
Also nothing against Brazilians but they deserve the shameful 1-7 against us, the country has a lot of problems with poverty but waste millions for the world cup. Just eat it Brazil, eat it!
