None of those teams have played a south american team yet. Wait until the group stages .

ahahahahahahaha glorious

 

[jamesinclair]

In January I put 100$ on Costa Rica winning the group with Uruguay second.







Oh god imagine I'd be a billionaire

 

[His Majesty]

no no no, it doesn't work like that, you man up and be responsible from what you say, there was nothing funny about that.

to be fair it was pretty funny

 

[LNBL]

PSV is shit. Eredivisie is wank. Ruiz is crap.

Dem (Ex)-PSV players leaving their mark in this WC: Mertens, Depay, Robben and now Ruiz.

 

[Brazil]

wait until K.O. matches

Lets see how many European teams will be in the QF and SF, I'd say half or more.

Catch 'ya later, then.

 

[KingSnake]

Italy won't lose, it will end up 1-1, because Pirlo is still a god.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Netherlands, Germany and Belgians still in the green.

6 European teams are... It's a bit silly, but whatever, don't give a shit, cheering for football federations is weird as fuck and I would rather see half the European teams out.

 

[Herr K]

if costa wins

Costa goes through

italy has 2 points
Uruguay has 2
England has 0

England are out at that point and potentially italy if they lose to uruguay

Its hilarious that people are counting out Europe when the following teams remain:


Germany
Belgium
Holland
Switzerland
France

Go ly down, you're drunk

 

[kamorra]

If I was italian now, I'd be so ashamed.

Because losing against Costa Rica would be shame? Are you bashing CR here?

 

[AcademicSaucer]

 

[Betty]

Draw or win for costa = bye England

Tie or Costa Rica win = early trip home.

A draw and we're out lol

if costa wins

Costa goes through

italy has 2 points
Uruguay has 2
England has 0

England are out at that point and potentially italy if they lose to uruguay

YES

Yes.

Today we are all Ticos fans!

yep

Lovely.

[brotkasten]

Italy won't lose, it will end up 1-1, because Pirlo is still a god.

They don't deserve it so far.

 

[norinrad]

As much as am rooting for Costa Rica, I think Italy would win this game.

 

[Seanbob11]

How does Savage seriously get to commentate?

 

[Shoogoo]

That ref wont be one of the final 8 thats for sure lol

 

[Buzzati]

You all are just jealous that we are god's gift to soccer.

 

[UrbanRats]

If I was italian now, I'd be so ashamed.

Nah we're used to the shitshow.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

There was a fight in the tunnel.

 

[Gandie]

So the only team not to have come down to earth (yet) is Germany?

Second game curse will strike again.

 

[Sadist]

Needs Martins Indi face stat

 

[CelticKnight]

Italy won't lose, it will end up 1-1, because Pirlo is still a god.

Really? 'cos he looked decidedly human in that first half.

 

[ICKE]

Because losing against Costa Rica would be shame? Are you bashing CR here?

It's not just losing, Italy came to this game like they already have 3 points in the bag. It has been a shameful display, because you would never expect such carelessness from experienced players.

I would expect them to bring their A game now though.

 

[Skellig Gra]

I am shocked and pleased. The coast is rich indeed.

 

[derwalde]

Second game curse will strike again.

ghana is too bad though.

 

[GHG]

There was a fight in the tunnel.

Between who?

The CR coach and the ref?

 

[Acorn]

How does Savage seriously get to commentate?

He has dirt on Lineker

 

[RedBaron17]

There was a fight in the tunnel.

Oh snap, really? What happened?

 

[$200]

not enough to beat that CONCACAF power though

 

[Duxxy3]

NO ONE will be able to handle that...

I don't see Qatar happening unless they airlift the country to another part of the world

 

[Bold One]

Or how about we start giving CR some credit? They are actually quite good and have a good tactical setup.

England wont beat them either.

credit to CR obviously but we all know Italy is better than this.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Between who?

The CR coach and the ref?

Oh snap, really? What happened?

The two teams walking in got into some shit.

 

[The Omega Man]

not enough to beat that CONCACAF power though

that's an amazing gif

 

[oni_saru]

Yep looks like the teams were arguing in the tunnel. Univision briefly showed it

 

[CraigerGamer]

I think Italy came into the game overconfident and thought they would sail through.

 

[KingSnake]

They don't deserve it so far.

In the entire history of World Cup Italy has more undeserved than deserved wins. It's their specialty.

 

[pulga]

Hats off to Costa Rica, showing amazing balls!

 

[Shoogoo]

No way England can beat CRC, not with what theyve shown so far

 

[Herr K]

They don't deserve it so far.

that's exactly why they'll win.

 

[thelurkinghorror]

I don't see Qatar happening unless they airlift the country to another part of the world

They have enough money for this

 

[Gandie]

ghana is too bad though.

They are. Need to keep the concentration up!

 

[kamorra]

It's not just losing, Italy came to this game like they already have 3 points in the bag. It has been a shameful display, because you would never expect such carelessness from experienced players.

I would expect them to bring their A game now though.

I'm not sure how you came to this conclusion but if you read this thread you will see that most Italy fans predicted this. No need for any shame, we're used to it.

 

[Sadist]

6 European teams are... It's a bit silly, but whatever, don't give a shit, cheering for football federations is weird as fuck and I would rather see half the European teams out.

You know what I mean

I only cheer for my team, but goddamn don't spread bad facts about Europe.

Thanks Bad Europe!

 

[Suen]

You know what? Pirlo does absolutely fuck all to even try and help Italy defend.

If he only helped with defense like Gerrard does.

Spoiler

I love you Hitcher

 

[GHG]

credit to CR obviously but we all know Italy is better than this.

Better than what? They are off the pace and for the most part have been stifled tactically.

Just like how spain were "better than" their heavy defeat to holland.

 

[offshore]

Sod it, I want Costa Rica to win and go through.

 

[KingSnake]

Really? 'cos he looked decidedly human in that first half.

Gods only strike once. They don't need to run or defend.

 

[krishian]

Oh shit it's Cassano

 

[LNBL]

Every chance for Italy is starting with a great pass by Sandor Clegane, let's see if Italy can step up their game

 

[Ingeniero]

not enough to beat that CONCACAF power though

Excellent gif
