Co-signed. I have no idea why everyone seems so sure that Germany will beat France. Just because it's Germany? lol

Until they prove otherwise I will keep backing them to do well every WC and Euro.

lol, I know Germany has a record of making the semis but did we all forget that France won in '98 and made the finals again in 2006? I could also say that France does extremely well every other WC and this is their year again. I haven't really been impressed by Germany this year unlike last WC where they really shouldn't have lost to Spain. We shall see.

I am going to be EXTREMELY shocked if Colombia doesn't win against Brazil!

@Ka-pi96

Believe me, I know it was mostly thanks to a guy called Zinedine Zidane and he has retired.

@Rol

KK, could you translate? The rhythm thing was BS. I mentioned it as a statement to the fact that every team needs to be judged by what they put on the field every 4 years not necessarily former glory. It wasn't because that was some meaningful justification for France moving forward.

You guys may think I'm anti-Germany or something but I actually argue that they are the most successful team not Brazil but folks only count complete victories. It just seems like their bandwagon has become too big or something. I'd even favor the Dutch to win over them this WC. The game will decide tomorrow. Should be a good match.

We have a prediction league here (well, sort of; there aren't any real updates). So it's not that people are fans of Germany and want them to win, but rather that they are going with the safer bet.

Ah, I completely missed the context. It all makes sense now.
