really enjoyed the Mexico game. What a great job of counter attacking!

Yeah I'm not Landon Donovan or anything but that was fun to watch. One of the WC favorites go down and get completely outplayed by a team who many said didn't stand a chance

I was just reading an interesting story about problems on the German team over immigration and the number of players on the team with a foreign background. Certain members of the German team were booed in Germany. Wondering if it could be affecting their play?

Since the US is not in the WC, I'm supporting England and Germany. I have a German heritage and I watch a lot of Premier League games and I'd like to see England get at least to the last 8.

For me it is England and Portgual.....and all the african nations

I am just going to say it after one half of watching....Belgium is grossly overrated. I have rarely seen a squad where the sum total of the parts is so much lower than the parts (players) themselves. There is just gobs of talent but they looked like lazy shit in that first half against Panama.

Yeah....I have been biased against them for four years. Not because they knocked us out, but because they were just chumps in doing it. At this point I feel its worth looking for a push at least from Panama in this game. I couldnt even entertain that an hour ago.

And they do that special blend of "bitch flopping" that is just disgusting.

What’s wrong with that? I try to support all the teams from concacaf, Mexico included.

You're crazy lol.

I'm fine with rooting for the other concacaf teams but not Mexico.

I rooted for Costa Rica today and rooting for Panama today but never Mexico

Belgium looks good in the second half. This could be their year.

They sure did show to be the team they were supposed to be against Panama in the second half. That first half was garbage. I just could not see it being their year if they lapse like that again against a good team. And this is not a new knock against them at all.

Belgium looked real good and could win it all. Certainly no clear cut favorite. Looks like we're going to have a real good tournament with very close games. 4-6 teams could win it all.

Iceland for the feel good story. Denmark because they are the tallest team in the cup. I’m 6’4. So I like power and strength. (Lukaku, Diego costa, strong cenbter backs)

Embarrassing losses for all South American countries. Don’t particularly care who wins since Iceland and Denmark won’t.
Germany’s midfield are a bunch of lazy assholes. Kroos gave up that goal with his lazy attitude and refusal to retreat back.

I don’t have beef with England, we will see if they can play together. They have had such uninspiring performances the last few years.
