ok. ok. ok yes It's possible

let's wait and see. I just think Germany is too strong, a 4-0 against Portugal sends a pretty strong message

but ok I'll eat crow if France beats Germany :-)

Portugal barely qualified for the world cup and played with 10 men. Germany yet to be tested.

How can you ask that in a tournament where Costa Rica is first in a group of England, Italy and Uruguay. Where spain lost 5-1. Where there are upsets everywhere.

France beating Germany is not close to as big of a shock.

Which team should I root for in order for the Swiss to be kicked out of the next round?

jk lol, i know they're in regardless of the result of this upcoming match. probably why they didn't even bother with France.
 
Don't have a dog in this fight so I'm only supporting Ecuador for Tony V.

If the US can beat Portugal, that message won't be as strong.

I think Pepe's red card made it pretty easy for them tbf, they are still the favourites imo. I reckon a Germany - France game could be the game of the tournament
 
Honduras - Ecuador could quite possibly beat Iran - Nigeria for shittiest game of the cup.

Or it's going to be great if there's an early goal and we're getting a real scrap like you sometimes see in second/third leagues.

What the fuck is up with FIFA calling 7 Costa Rican players to a doping test? They only asked for 2 Italian players.

Take it as a testament to how stunning their performance was.
 
Don't forget as great as Germany were(they are brilliant), portugal aren't world beaters. Barely qualified for the wc and they were down a man.

Germany would obviously be favourites against France but France winning wouldn't be a surprise.

No way! :P

Not directing that at you, just people that keep saying it was wrong lol. When clearly, they are wrong and don't know the rules.

As if the ref was supposed to predict that Benzema would receive that pass from midfield and shoot from outside the box. Lol

It's just common sense, you DO NOT blow the whistle when a team is running down the pitch and on the attack, just pull up any random WC game and watch where the ball is and what the players are doing the seconds before the final whistle is blown...none of them I bet would've been on the attack, near the opponent's box like this scenario; Whistle is usually blown when the there are small passes being made in the midfield... Also it really doesn't matter if it's 10-15-20 seconds past the given stoppage time, sometimes the clock rolls, so what? last match ti was blown 17-15 seconds before the 4 minute given time, just saying.

My point is, if France was down a goal or if it was a tie game, you bet your ass, this would've caused a lot of controversy and outage among players, managers and fans and others...the only reason it wasn't really questioned much, was due to France already dominating the score board. All I am saying is, it was quite the unprofessional way to end the match, maybe he should've blown it 5 seconds sooner?

Can't remember the last match I saw when the final whistle was blown with the ball in the centre circle.

Ref usually blows when the attack is over. In this case he just put someone out of their misery. No biggie.

I did not word that correctly, not inside the circle really but around and near the circle.

I'm going for a Honduran yellow card in the first 15 minutes and at least 5 yellow cards for them in the match.

None of my other bets have come off today, though. So don't expect it to happen.

I don't understand why Madrid or Portugal play Pepe in games that matter.

He is a timebomb

It's the greatest mystery in world football. I assumed it was because of a Mourinho portugese bias but Ancelotti (who has played with and managed the greatest defenders of all time) has stuck with him aswell. I thought the first thing he would have done would be to sell him
 
I actually think Honduras may have a chance here. It's not like Ecuador are world beaters. Their all time record is also pretty even. Do it for CONCACAF Catrachos.
