I hope we lose, out football players are the biggest phonies and charlatans among all of our sportists. Go home already and quit wasting money.

Wut Mexico and Germany going home?
*Fell asleep during 1st half*
Actually Germany doesn't come as a surprise.
They were playing so poorly.

Yeah, it's kinda 50-50%, one half of the bracket is absolutely stacked while the other one..not so much.
Still the best World Cup since Germany 2006  (in all seriousness, I know that feeling. The 2010 one was abysmal for us too, then it got even worse)

I was expecting a bit more especially from Milinkovic-Savic, he's supposed to be the next big thing (with Lazio's -crazy- president who's asking for €150m), but he's been nothing special in this WC. In general, most of the players looked like they didn't have enough grit or hunger (or they simply lacked chemistry  ). |

You can still remember the overall quality of football play at those three former World Cups?
IMO 2010 was interesting most likely because of team Nl, and Italy back then lol. (had to look it up)
1986 was the 1st WC I have watched, and the current one I find particularly uninteresting so far.
Or perhaps I am getting old.  |
You're not wrong, the overall quality of football doesn't seem to be particularly high this year when compared to some of the classic editions, but it's how the matches evolve (or devolve in sloppy ways ) that I'm finding interesting. It's a more leveled type of challenge (physical also) with smaller teams that are fairly well organized in general and giants that are either still sleeping a bit or simply inebriated.
Though maybe it could just be the fact that watching the show as a neutral free from the constraints of a biased support makes me enjoy more the randomized chaos, a là Joker  |

| Quote: | The improbable events set off celebrations from here, the easternmost host city of the World Cup, to the streets of Mexico City.
In a rare game that left fans of both teams happy, Mexicans and Swedes departed the stadium singing, “Bye bye, Germany!” while children in the concourses wearing lucha libre masks and the green shirts of Mexico chanted “Corea! Corea!”
Yet the biggest eruptions might have occurred in Mexico City, where thousands watched the match on a makeshift screen erected in the city’s central square, the Zócalo. Afterward, scores of fans rushed to the South Korean embassy to express their gratitude and to celebrate.
When Han Byoung-jin, the consul general, came out to greet the crowd, he was handed a shot of tequila and lifted into the air. |

The reactions described are just hilarious. It seems this is the secret guide to spread love and utopia, something the world sorely needs.

From what I have seen Timo Werner is promising, bit young though.
