Football 2014 FIFA World Cup

Everybody want to win upon Brazil or watch us losing. Being 5 times champion and the most victorious team is a burden.
We have good players to substitute Luis Gustavo, but Neymar is worrisome since he can't be substituted. It is an injure made by a blow in his thigh, but it will be recovered by Friday, hopefully.
Don't expect that they will have as much space as they had against Greece, Ivory Coast, Japan and Uruguay.

Since past year we knew that Chile's style wasn't favorable for us, at point that among Spain, Netherlands and Chile, Felipão said he didn't want to play against Chile. XD
Columbia has a style more favorable for us. Even so, we had to give our all indeed.

That´s not the reason, being a team of actors and drama queens for me is but to each his own as always

Before even reading your name, I knew this would come from a German...

Well it is the truth. The last time we won anything big was 1996... We are the most successful wc team (apart from titles) and nobody here would ever talk about a "burden".

Weirdly, this is the netherlands i was planning to see. Defensive and hoping on robben and van persie. Seeing the netherlands this good in group phase was a surprise.

About the weather, yes it s the same for every player and most players of big teams are playing in europe but there is something called genetics. The darker your skin is, the better you handle the sun. So, i do think it has a small influence. But still, those cooling breaks are weird. What are they going to do in qatar ?


Edit: that was a penalty. It s clear

As if European teams were albinos.

Mexico is better in the match, much better, controlling the match, attacking with more efficiency and defending well when it's needed.

I saw acting in every team in this World Cup, not only in Brazil. Our team is "acting" much less than many teams here.

You admited that your team didn't win anything since 1996, I'm amazed.
You guys can have more matches (2 matches, pff), but we have 6 wins more than you guys, less draws and defeats. Either we are more successful or math changed its rules.

 

[Hardy]

Yay Mexico, doing us a favour.

 

[Sky]

Niichan already did the math for you regarding semi finals, 2nd places, 3rd places, etc.

And you still don't get that I don't think that Germany is the best team ever. I , as usual, state facts, while you try to insult my team which I didn't even praise unlike you.
I am objective, you aren't. It is as simple as that.

 

[Zasz]

Since the day Italy was thrown out of the world cup, I wondered who I should have supported. LOL
Considering that Netherlands has defeated Spain, I wish it would win the match, but right now it's losing against Mexico. XD
And what's with this discussion about being the most succesful team?
I think it's a tiring debate on the long run...

Terug naar huis...

oranje benedeeenn, oranje beneddeennnn

The world cup where europe died.

And 6 fingers mexican josh radnor is still touched by heaven right now

 

[Hardy]

The Netherlands just got Ochoa'ed

 

[Sky]

Too bad no big club needs a new keeper.
So no idea where Godchoa might play next season.

No matter what happens, we still have Germany!

Or France and I would bet on France at the moment.

Well, you guys elminate each other, and then you'd have to play against the best team in the world or the locals

Edit: 2nd best team* USA is still the number 1.

 

[Zasz]

I just can't find the words to describe the miracle man that Ochoa is. LOL

If we beat France somehow and meet Colombia we would probably lose that match. Brazil would be way easier.

 

[Akainu]

Don't forget Switzerland, Belgium and Greece

Seriously though, Netherlands is disappointing. Feels like they don't even try to attack and the few times they do - Ochoa.

 

[TheMoa]

Robben has to practice his divings... that one was awful

 

[Hardy]

Fcking Netherlands

Robben has to practice his divings... that one was awful

He's Brazilian, he knows about this stuff.
