FIFA 2014 World Cup - Official Discussion Thread

This is the Spain we should have seen two games ago.

Too little, too late.

Get over it ...

Yes, life goes on. Anyway, I like that loyalty to the red colour. I'm rooting for Colombia and Costa Rica. Go Ticos!

The Suarez bite was...

...Cannibalistic. The man was hungry. Hopefully Colombia will finish Uruguay off and Suárez won't dare to bite another player, in other case someone is going to call Timochenko and that scares a bit.

You know, I don 't give a crap is we lose tomorrow against Netherlands. Today was good enough and I don't even like Germany. In fact I¡'mk afraid that even if we beat Netherlands, we will be destroyed by Germany in a bigger dissapointment than 2010.

Frankly I now wish that Germany beat us in the final. It will give us enough hope about winning the title while at the same time we can't complain that we did badly in the tournament and the government won't have that much of political propaganda to throw around.

So, tomorrow is a win - win for me

You must finish the Netherlands off to get crushed by the German machine in the final. There's no great risk of an Argentinian victory because there's no big difference between your national team and the Brazilian, aside Messi is better than Neymar. It's a pity, but a defeat tomorrow or on next Sunday won't help the opposition in your country. On the other hand, Scolari is not willing to resign. What a macabre and cheeky person

Did the DDR football team ever win something?

[Velasco]

Definitely I'll root for the DDR. Since that country doesn't exist -except maybe in someone's imagination- I think Argentina had enough prize reaching the final and the machine deserves to win. I'm sorry for my Argentine friends, but I want to see winning the team that doesn't mistreat the ball. With the due respect for Mascherano The Gladiator, whose work in the field is quite good, the Argentinian team is almost as horrible as Brazil.
