  • If this french team turns up it'll be a great game. Brazil have been kinda flat and I think one might pick this french team as the favorite.

    • This is probably the best match I've seen so far (I haven't seen all of them though)

      Both team had spirits, both teams were really willing to exhaust themselves for the win, and both teams had excellent players.

      The same thing could have happened between Portugal and Netherlands, if it hadn't turned into a streetfight contest. So far, it's the only match in this cup that really gives the impression that the best teams and the best players are in the contest


      Oh, and the ref was excellent too, which really added to the quality. I hope he's there in the finals.


      And on for Brazil - France! Et Un, et Deux, et Trois-Zé-ro!!

          • It was actually a very good day for football. Brazil-Ghana was an absolute joy to watch (did I mention I called out sick today... well, I overslept or else I wouldn't, but I'm kind of happy I overslept now ) with attacking football by Ghana almost surprising the Brazilians. And then the back and forth showdown between France and Spain, making me very happy .

            My homerism says Italy-US was the best match I've seen, but I realize my bias .

              Brazil might have been kinda flat, but they won all their games with ease, except against Croatia. They've been flat because they could afford to.

              The same can't be said of France, which had a difficult match against Switzerland ferchrissake!
