    One of the national team from our region has to get through, i don't care who.

    I disagree. They don’t have the technical capability to hold off a team like Croatia. Maybe not an all out press but the only way they were staying in that game was with their athleticism and speed. Croatia was just a horrible matchup. They needed to beat Belgium, who were a better matchup as they’re old and slow. Unfortunately for Canada, they’re just not a good finishing team.

    Worse, they’re not going to say a thing because anything else would show they gave a sh**.

    Costa Rica had 2 shot on goal these two first games with one being the winner against Japan. That might have saved Germany from back to back embarrassments.

    I wanted Japan to make it through but they blew it against costa rica.

    Unless a miracle happens, it's gonna b Spain and Germany going through.

    Japan needs to win, a draw ain't gonna help them. I fully expect germany to beat up costa rica

    international football is tough and this world cup being held during winter might be too much for players coming from top clubs/leagues.

    I just like how they press and how much pressure they put on the other teams - it is like Leeds United, very risky but entertaining....love it.

    Didn't say they would win.

    Actually, when exactly did Manchester United start sucking, and when did DD declare himself a supporter? Someone needs to check the timelines here.

    Just saw the last 10 minutes, but South Korea looks timid and dejected. They need to grow some balls.
