While I will obviously support my team, since this time French aren't ridiculous, if Germany wins the World Cup, I would be happy as well!

Even if we survive against the French, I don't see how we'd have a chance against Colombia or the Dutch.

The Dutch are favored?

Just think what Robben would have done against our defenders last night.

Franz, don't underestimate so much your team. Maybe they haven't been great against Algeria. But the match against Portugal was splendid!

It's perfectly possible we'll start playing competently again and beat France. Only saying that this must happen or we're more than screwed.

I don't see why you're being so hard on Germany. They weren't at their best level, for sure, but they did what they needed to win. Besides, it's always fun when matches get to the supplemental times.

And Neuer is a real badass. Cheesy

I'm really liking both Argentina and Switzerland here. Should be a fun one!

There's a chance that this is the last World Cup where Belgium exists.

Argentina's team is overrated and made it to the knockout rounds by the happenstance that the best player in the world happens to be Argentine. Being annihilated in the octofinal would be golden (and give the US a solid shot to Semis Cheesy)

Another damn 0-0 and extra time. And we were doing so well avoiding that this Cup.

Considering that the Swiss team contains nine players of foreign ancestry, wanting them to lose because of xenophobia is quite hilarious.

Albania Switzerland is an incredibly grating team to watch. Hopefully they go the way of Greece.
