Well this has been just awful from Argentina, Messi specifically.

Juninho on the panel again. :D

Dreg June 15th, 2014 3:24 PM

Messi has just scored there, 2-0 to Argentina.

Aeroblast June 15th, 2014 3:50 PM

Now 2-1. Ibisevic the goalscorer.

Dzeko has been woeful.

Eruption June 15th, 2014 3:54 PM

Messi definitely grew into the game in the second half. I think they probably earned the close win in the end.

Easy route to the knockouts from here for Argentina.

Dreg June 15th, 2014 3:54 PM

The last chance for Bosnia was indeed terrible. Should've done a lot better. The game finished 2-1 Argentina.

Aeroblast June 16th, 2014 9:47 AM

Germany 4-0 Portugal. Cristiano Ronaldo has been nonexistent.

Not a very good game at all.

Germany were very poor in the second half, only winning 1-0 in the last 45 minutes against 10 man Portugal. I was expecting at least 7, 8, or 9-0.

I mean there's no need to strain themselves that much when you know you've basically got the game in the bag. I'd rather they take the game 4-0 then tire themselves out by racking up the score and possibly screw themselves over for the next game in the process.

Gabri June 16th, 2014 11:15 AM

Told ya.

Awfulest of the most awful that could have happened. Half of our players didn't even try. And Pepe was the dumbest person alive in that moment. Should have stayed away from Muller, he only got sent off because he went there to provoke him and nudge his head.

Coentrão's replacement is a noob who almost never played at the left in his life. Every team that plays against us will have an open highway through that side. At least Almeida won't be really missed, he's terrible. How the hell is he even chosen, seriously.

Did anyone realise the people adding the names across the bottom of the screen, whoever was responsible for the accents like Özil did Oezil . Just wondering if anyone picked it up

srinator June 16th, 2014 11:29 AM

Even mueller lmao, I thought I was the only one

Aeroblast June 16th, 2014 12:10 PM

Pepe's idiocy has probably cost Portugal's chances of advancing to knockout stages.

Edit: Oh god, Shola Ameobi coming on for Nigeria. This already monotonous game cannot get any more monotonous.

Dreg June 16th, 2014 12:52 PM

That was a really boring game, I think I was falling asleep there. First game without a goal. Expected better from Nigeria.

Weeaboo Name June 16th, 2014 12:55 PM

At least it was better than the Germany game.

Dreg June 16th, 2014 12:58 PM

I think it was slightly worse. I hope USA vs Ghana is a much better game... hopefully the likes of Gyan or Dempsey will provide some of the goals.

Weeaboo Name June 16th, 2014 1:00 PM

It lacked a bit of quality but the Germany game almost put me to sleep.



lol Joe Hart is pretty good.

Judge Mandolore Shepard June 16th, 2014 1:19 PM

Four of the players to watch for USA are Tim Howard, Jozy Altidore, Clint Dempsey, and Micheal Bradley. I am certainly going to enjoy this game. Course I hope it will not be a repeat of the last two times USA has faced Ghana in the World Cup.

Weeaboo Name June 16th, 2014 1:33 PM

Fabian Johnson and Jermaine Jones are certainly better than Jozy. Can't wait for him to head over from 3 yards when it's easier to score.

Eruption June 16th, 2014 1:40 PM

Time to see if Altidore actually looks like a professional footballer when he plays for his country, he certainly doesn't in the BPL.

Also Iran and Nigeria owe me 2 hours of my life back.

The less said about Portugal the better.

El Héroe Oscuro June 16th, 2014 2:02 PM

And Dempsey gives the United States an extremely early lead against Ghana 30 seconds in. Wow...that's incredible...I'm just...

Dreg June 16th, 2014 2:04 PM

Yeah, I'm shocked that I didn't take Dempsey for first goalscorer... The last 2 I've took for first goalscorer haven't even started but were on the bench...

Eruption June 16th, 2014 2:24 PM

Amazing goal to start the game.

Looks like I won't see much of altidore after all.

Dreg June 16th, 2014 2:35 PM

Probably won't see much of Dempsey either.... Jesus that was a nasty kick to the face.

Eruption June 16th, 2014 2:58 PM

It'll take more than that to stop Dempsey. Just wondering how easily Fulham might've stayed up if they grabbed him back in the MLS offseason.

Ghana have too many of the same players, having a big man would play right into their hands here.
