Gotdamn we are fucking boned in that Group of Death.

there are two ways to look at this
a) if you make it, you have bragging rights about surviving the Group of Death.
b) if you don't make it, you have a viable excuse to say that you had the hardest Group.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

BTW that minute silence for Mr Mandela was a disgrace.

Blatter desperately trying to popularize the 10 second silence. They needed the time for interpretive dance.

Except for one thing.

Mexico always beats Brazil.

(and always loses to Argentina).

Thats their trump card.

The Mexico-Brazil-Argentina thing is almost like Pokemon, lol.

Mexico > Brazil

Brazil > Argentina

Argentina > Mexico

 

[AranhaHunter]

I really hope this is fake, but I don't think it is lol. It looks so stupid and forced. Dilma is such a dumbass.

True. REVENGE AGAINST GERMANY for 2002!

 

[vctor182]

Wait so Group G is the Death Group? I though it was D

 

[Sr Kitsune]

I was actually rooting when were almost disqualified but USA brought us back.

A lot of people, including half my family and many friends. I wasn't rooting for Mexico to disqualify, but either result was good. If we didn't qualify it will be good to clean all the rotten shit, if we qualify I was fine with it too.

The Mexico-Brazil-Argentina thing is almost like Pokemon, lol.

Mexico > Brazil

Brazil > Argentina

Argentina > Mexico

And don't forget Germany > Mexico.

 

[The Incarnation]

Group C: Colombia, Côte d’Ivoire, Japan, Greece

I'd actually say that is an easy group for Ivory Coast. I'd expect Greece to bore their way into second.

 

[Staal]

Lovely draw for us, Holland.

Immediately the Final of 2010. And then 2 good but beatable opponents. And then possibly Brazil again. Holland vs Brazil are always among the best games.

My sentiments exactly. Looking forward to some good games.

What does this mean in English?

Uh, so what does it say? This is an English board man.

 

[Roronoa95]

DAT GROUP E !

And don't forget Germany > Mexico.

I actually think thet last 2 matches were bought, there's a lot of money in play and if we didn't qualify everything would've been lost. It's just so bizarre how USA managed to scored those goals at the last minute that saved us.

It's funny how Mexico can beat the team who beats the teams who beat them.

 

[twdnewh_k]

Unfortunate for Ghana. They certainly do have the ability to pull an upset. USA will prolly go 0-3.

 

[ElFly]

Jesus Christ

Chile got fucked.

Even if we manage to win the second place in our group (against the champion and the runner up of the previous cup) we get to play against Brazil.

AGAIN

FOR THE THIRD TIME

And that's the best outcome.

 

[AranhaHunter]

Uh, so what does it say? This is an English board man.

I don't wanna translate all that, sorry I shouldn't have posted it. Dilma is just being dumb trying to get insights from Ronaldo and Neymar on if playing in front of the home crowd makes a difference and if getting easier opponents first makes a difference. It felt really forced and stupid.


Also:

Olé (Argentina): El grupo de la vida (Group of Life)
http://www.ole.com.ar/mundial-2014/sorteo-minuto_0_1042695953.html

Argentinians seem very happy with the drawing, calling it the group of life.

 

[Tugatrix]

I really hope this is fake, but I don't think it is lol. It looks so stupid and forced. Dilma is such a dumbass.

just wait a second your "Presidenta" has Twitter and exgange tweets with ex players and ex-players? I can't picture Cavaco doing that, point's to Dilma.

Yes is contrived but at least she tries, i can't say the same for mine...

 

[Jigolo]

Mexico was in the same group as south Africa and now mexico is in the same group as brasil? Fuck FIFA.


Hope my people make it out of Brasil alive.

 

[criesofthepast]

Jesus Christ

No the best outcome is you win Group B and play Cameroon, Mexico or Croatia. All teams I'd put Chile ahead of. Dream big, amigo.

In short: "chance to prove ourselves but honestly were fucked lol"

 

[ShaoranWright]

Damn, Chile

 

[Tawpgun]

Every time.

Yup...

Soccer rooting Hierarchies

Intl:
1. Poland (from poland)
2. USA (Live here)
3. Germany (Bunch of Polish players and awesome team)

Clubs
1. Liverpool
2. Borussia Dortmund
They're in different leagues so it doesn't conflict much.

 

[ilMikhail]

Mexico will win against Cameroon, tie against Croatia and lose vs Brazil. We will advance as 2nd place and will be buried by Netherlands or Spain. Same boring shit as always.

I think Mexico can tie against Brazil , Mexico plays really good against brazil, but in the end you are right , Spain or Netherlands will rape Mexico

 

[MrKaepora]

Wait so Group G is the Death Group? I though it was D

Joke post or are you serious? England doesn't stand a chance against Uruguay and Italy. Costa Rica is fucked basically.

 

[PsychBat!]

Holy shit.

 

[aggro crag]

It's nice to have dreams

I'm open to pretty much anything happening in the World Cup finals. Still a lot of time between now and Brazil. With players still fighting for spots on their national team squads, injuries are bound to happen, or spikes in player form.

[Eyeh4wk]

Considering her "speech" at the draw , I guess it's possible.

 

[Gurthang]

England are done

 

[lupinko]

I like TSN's headline front page about the US being in the Group of Death.
