If this tournament continues like that I will not be surprised to see a first time ever World Cup winner.

Agreed. If the big five (Spain, France, Germany, Argentina, Brazil) don't get their head out of their ass, I could definitely a Portugal Belgium final, which would be a delight to see. 



Germany was kinda meh today. Defense needs to be better - Mexicans had too many chances in their zone. Brazil also underwhelmed today. Gonna be very interesting indeed.

Also realize its already been 4 years since the 2014 world cup. I feel old now



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Pretty exciting going to Russia. I have to go to the WC when its in NA in 8 years (probably not going any further than Edmonton though).

Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

People are knocking Brazil for drawing to a team who specialise in draws? Switzerland have had 1-1 and 0-0 draws in most of their games for the past 3 WCs even beating Spain 1-0 that WC where the Spanish won it, that match was not as easy and clear cut as some of you think as Switzerland are the only team who went out a WC with out conceding a goal.

That's their game plan score one and hold on for the whistle, what you saw today is how all their games this tournament are going to look, it's how all their games in tournaments in the recent decade have looked.

I don’t know about others, but we as Brazilians always expect our team to easily trump everyone. People here are only satisfied when the team scores lots of goals and win easily. It’s kinda like Real Madrid fans, they’re so spoiled they are only happy with great results. Based on that, you can figure how bad the 2014 fiasco was for Brazilians. But it was a well deserved one that helped changing many things. If we’re competitive now, it was thanks to that.

Even so the 2014 fiasco may have been bad but ultimately they still made it to the semis, football has come a long way since the days of the usual suspects dominating and scoring 5 or so goal many smaller teams know they can't compete on the talent front so instead focus on hard work, game knowledge and organisation with Iceland being a good example. The won't be a case of what we used to see from the 70s to the 00s as now teams can grind it out against bigger nations all of this began when Brazil's Super Team from the 80s lost to Paulo Rossi's Italy as it show that even when you're being outplayed and outmatch grinding out a result is still very much possible and it's only gone and lead to what we see in this year's tournament.

The result today honestly wasn't a bad one and the reason people's predictions are ending up so off is because we all haven't fully realise we're not in the old usual suspects era so people are not looking at the teams on paper they're looking at the reputations and predicting a result from that rather than who is actually playing.
