Dude, you forgot to include the Spain-Morocco match.

Nah - I talked about both in that one paragraph. Honestly, I didn't have that much to say about the Spaniards, other than feeling let down they didn't kick Morocco's butts out harder.

As for yesterday's fare...

France 0 - 0 Denmark
Didn't pay too much attention to this one - save for watching highlights... Doesn't take too much effort to see that these two were gonna dominate their group (France winning, Denmark being runner-up.); I'm just let down that this wasn't as interesting as it could have been, y'know?

Nigeria 1 - 2 Argentina
Messi came through (for the first one, anyway) - and the rest followed suit. Nigeria's top player did not. That's all there is to this, really - that, and waving goodbye to Nigeria (which sucks, but they never had much of a chance.). At least the better team (Croatia) won this group... Yeah - I don't see Argentina going too far after this, especially with how this could have gone either way for them, especially without their star - glad the rest of the team is slowly getting their shit together, so there's some hope for them yet, if how they broke this time without Messi doing it is any indication.

Croatia 2 - 1 Iceland
Now here's another match that could have gone either way - and is much better than ARG-NIG for it, as well.
The better team ultimately won out (along with clinching the group, too.), so much that I could see them going farther than Knockouts, but not winning the cup. Croatia should still go farther than Argentina is likely to, anyway, IMHO.

Peru 2 - 0 Australia
At least Peru goes home with some sense of fulfillment - to be fair, however: Australia has never truly been that good at this craft, unlike how they are at rugby. So, the weakest link to COMNEBOL here is out of it, now. I hope Columbia & Uruguay can last longer, just for the sake of something interesting to happen - and to teach Argentina not to rely on one player to guide them to victory; good luck outlasting Brazil, though (that'll be a challenge and-a-half!).

:story:

Not the first time the Germans were humiliated on Russian soil!

Hey, at least the final won't be another Brazil Germany snorefest.
 
TFW I wanted to root for Germany once Serbia inevitably fucks up.
 
I'm totally not into soccer - or football as it's called where I live - but I know what team won by the cheers, toots and explosions outside my window.

I was hoping Germany would win so I could go to the local Irish pub if they played one another. :popcorn:
 
I'm hoping Serbia can pull off some magic against Brazil tonight just to see Brazilians crying over not getting further tbh
 
Honestly don't know who to support now. I hate England, Spain would be a good choice if not for >De Gay, Ronaldo is too much of a faggot for my tastes (I'd like Portugal otherwise) and pride doesn't allow me to support Brazil.
Do Uruguay and Croatia have a legit chance? I'll bandwagon them.

Croatia does. Well balanced team.

I'd say 'eat it' but I'm not really rooting for Brasil until they hit the finals, so let's just call it even.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't mind them winning, but that would just mean four years of "6 STARS KKKKKKKKK" shitposting and I'm too salty and seething right now to even think about that.
 
Mexico 0 - 3 Sweden
Well, this was a great match for Sweden and a nice pleasing comedy of errors for Mexico, despite BOTH teams advancing as Winner & Runner-Up (SWE, MEX), respectively. At this point, however - Where I can see SWE going past Knockouts with a little luck, MEX is pretty much done, despite their advance (which really does come off as pure luck, due to Germany (GER) not being able to beat Korea (KOR) of all teams - speaking of which...).

Germany 0 - 2 Korea
Looking at this game proper, you'd think GER could easily destroy their last opponents here, advance easily despite an upset to Mexico, and call it a day. So fucking much for that! Damn shame, too - properly watching this particular game, they were just dominating until the end.

It was clear KOR wasn't going to make it far in this (as if they ever do), but thanks for making the end of this game entertaining by besting GER like you did in those last couple minutes, while holding on for dear life, m8s - I cheered my ass off at this result, so good on you for giving me that much. Farewell and thank you for going down fighting. As for you GER... We know you'll be back next time and kicking ass - I mean, save for now, when have you NOT made it to (and through) this tourney???
