Less than 5 hours to go

OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD

Pressure is gonna get to us and we're so gonna get kicked out by the fucking usa aren't we. Well at least it's early in the cup and hopefully depression/bitterness should be mostly gone by semis and I can enjoy the last few matches.

Although it's making me feel dirty and sick, I'll be rooting for you.
 
Huh, has this been posted already?

wuuuuuuuut
 
US-Portugal is going to be a 2-2 tie, just to keep everyone technically alive and the whole group confusing.
 
I don't see the logic in playing the final match ofth Group A, after the final match of Group B. There is no logic in that.
No, group A should go first, just like they did the previous two rounds. By exchanging the order now, Brazil can pick their opponent.

Logic is one thing, fair play is another. Saying it's not fair play assumes some bad things happening. Like what? Brazil will play against Cameroon differently? Why? If Chile beats Netherlands would they want to rather play against Chile (the stronger team)?

I would say that this statement sounds like he wants to avoid Brazil, and that would be truly lacking fair play.
 
Still thinking about yesterday's GER-GHA game, man what an awesome game that was. If Ghana had played like that versus MURICA, they would have won 10-0.
 
So Van Gaal wants special treatment or what? It was always like this at World Cup, only the same group final games are played at the same hour. Or it would have been more fair-play if it was the other way around? What does he imply there, that they will arrange the game? It's a quite bad statement.

Brazil always plays to primetime Tv hours. Thats all there is to it.

Like it or not, it's still strange that they have changed the order of the matches after the first 2 games. And well... V.gaal has these moment, i'm sure you will hear him say more stuff like this next season at MU

If Chile wins against Netherlands, Cameroon will win against Brazil, I'm calling it now.

He is right its bullshit, A should always go before B. It doesn't surprise me though, this tourney has already been skewed towards Brazil.
