The Official Brazil World Cup 2014 Discussion Thread

[EnriqueBrah]

I agree about Belgium being "chit" but you know they can resolve a game in a blink of an eye.

All it takes is Hazard to do some magic up top and Belgium will go ham.

they wont be able to go ham against a good german team or US/ghana

team that finishes first or 2nd. have great chances of gon through to quarters. they rpobably would have played tougher games in group stage than they end up playing next.

its the top groups like, brazil, mexico, chile, netherlands.. are gettin fked over big time. playing hardcore teams right of the bat.

fifa fuked up with the ranking system setting up groups.

groups are set up randomly

[Briisk]

Was it a good time? Was thinking about going for the usa vs germany game when i fly in.

Dude, it was fun and cool but it was seriously like sardines in a can. Whoever organized the event screwed up big time. They should have expected lots of people because it was a Sunday and it was sunny out. Hopefully they change it and put the damn projector screen in the park instead of the street for Thursday, but then again I think there will be a lot less people Thursday so they might not. I was somewhat in the front, but if you got stuck in the back, it would not have been as cool I think.

Just go, but get there at least 2 hours prior, and not 1.5. hrs hours, I really mean 2 damn hours. I might go too, lemme know lol.

thats interesting.
here most of us pay for tv (basic free tv sucks ass), and many of us pay for sht tons of premium channels. hell my internet/cable bill is $185/month, +all kinds of weird fees annd sht, so really $215.

You mad I pay only $30 for IPTV and internet. Over 10 soccer leagues, NFL, NBA, NHL and many other sports are included. Such is life in Croatia.

Alright, interesting.

So from my understanding, to advance the US needs one of the following to occur, in order of preference:

1. Beat Germany
2. Tie Germany
3. Portugal and Ghana tie
4. Lose to Germany by a small margin and Portugal beats Ghana by a small margin
5. Lose to Germany 0-1 and Ghana beats Portugal 1-0

Feel free to correct me if I got something wrong

Yeah basically. I'm just irate they couldn't close it today.

[aristopF]

Look. At this point, we all have to pray that Germany takes 1st in our group, then beats Algeria in the round of 16, and that Nigeria takes 2nd in their group and beats France.

So that for 90 mins, on worldwide television, the scoreboard will read NIG-GER

Copied from my friend's FB post lol

Da fuk? 4 matches tomorrow with matches being played at the same time?

To prevent match fixing and rigging after Germany and Austria frauded their way to next round in the 1982 world cup.

Wow didn't know that. Interdasting..repped.

Thoughts on Mexico vs Croatia?

Do you see Croatia beating Mexico?

It honestly can go either way. Croatia has the BIG names and arguably 2 of the 10 best midfielders this season and have star forwards in Mandzukic and Olic. Their defense is impeccable, Srna is gonna marshall that back line like the GOAT. Honestly, I really want Mexico to win or at least tie....but the odds are against us brah. Footballing-wise and talent-wise.

I hope Gio do Santos delivers. I would be more confident if Vela had played for Mexico...arguably the GOAT Mexican player currently playing.

Gio-Peralta-Vela

I hope we start Aquino tomorrow.

HNNNGGGG

They've always done this. Tomorrow morning will be boring as we already know which two teams made it.

it is going to be a very difficult game for Mexico, but it may be what Mexico needs, winning vs Croatia will boost Mexico's morale and make the "si se puede" chant a reality once and for all and reach at least the quarter finals once again since 1986.

[Skinnygeorge]

if i was there i would just drop on my knees and suk his dink srs no homo

[Radioactive Man]

anyone going to have trouble going to sleep? or even living?

I'm going to be pissed for a few days but I'll get over it. If the USA doesn't get out of the group stage, then I will be irate because of this.

[seembrah]

Thought you ameribrahs had it. Very exciting game!

In4 WW2 Rematch!

[TokenV]

belgium is chit
couldnt do anything to any team on their group
i think either team is easy for group g

quoted for 2nd round, lol

[LamboBrah]

Can someone explain how Portugal was that bad and how Ronaldo cant score a phucking goal? the entire Portugal team looks demotivated as phuck. srsly

[woodsmash]

There's obviously team chemistry problems. They look all over the place and Ronaldo's body language throughout the game shows that

[cr9messi]

Missing their two best defenders, including Ronaldo's left-wing accomplice.
Cristiano Ronaldo is playing with an injury.
Portugal sucks, not even close to 2006-2008 Portugal.
Bento is a shiet coach. Quaresma>Nani.


Ronaldo said it best today--

"There are no miracles. We knew we would have a tough group, with perhaps teams better than us. I never thought we could be world champions, we have to be humble and know our level. I'm not a hypocrite, I never thought we could win the tournament "

[EnriqueBrah]

quoted for 2nd round, lol

Belgium should have dominated/destroyed/raped/molested/demolished South Korea Algeria and Russia but they didn't. They had difficulties. Any team that has to face them from group g will beat them

[awwchit]

Still think France has looked the strongest.

then again im just repeating myself and lol'ing at nobody predicting France to be a powerhouse before the world cup started.

[CfcTorres]

The same could be said about Argentina and Iran. I think Belgiums style of play is too slow to be effective against weaker sides but might work against some tough opponents.

Noone expected it because they barely got through their playoff
