Tigranes Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 Every bad thing said about FIFA is true and this cup is particularly abominable in all the infrastructural, economic, political, organisational senses... but the football's the best it's been since 2002 (in a World Cup anyway, since world cups no longer showcase best football in the world in any sense). Â I hear the Ivory Coast comeback was delicious and the Swiss actually managed to be entertaining on the pitch for the first time in their history. And of course the Dutch rollercoaster. Â France have made the wrong decision in front of goal every single time, mostly due to Benzema and Debuchy, but now they've got a golden ticket to put a few more in. 1 Let's Play: Icewind Dale Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Icewind Dale II Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Divinity II (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG1 (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG2 (In Progress)
HoonDing Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 So inefficient. If Germany were playing it would be 6-0 already. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Keyrock Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 That would really suck in Bosnia winds up losing because of an own goal. Â They've been playing quite solidly so far. 1 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks
JadedWolf Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 I can't believe how much trouble Messi's Argentina is having with footballdwarf Bosnia. They seem to have left not just their A game at home, they did not bring even their D game. Never attribute to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence. Â

JadedWolf Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 Heh, 2-1. I will admit if Bosnia scored another it wouldn't even be undeserved. Never attribute to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence. Â
Keyrock Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 I'm still undecided whether Bosnia is actually pretty decent or Argentina is rather crappy. Â Outside of Messi's splendid goal, Argentina was mostly outmatched. Â Argentina opened up a bit after the Messi goal, but Bosnia still controlled most of the game even after that.

Keyrock Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 And 3-0 Germany. Â Down by 3, down a man, this is pretty much worst case scenario for Portugal.

IndiraLightfoot Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Goal!! 3-0!! Football is a game which ends with Germany winning after 90 minutes (or earlier)... Â (You know that saying I'm paraphrasing) *** "The words of someone who feels ever more the ent among saplings when playing CRPGs" *** Â
Malcador Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Am disappointed with the English commentator not mentioning blitzkreig, storming, bombing with regards to the German attack. 3-0 though, didn't expect that.

IndiraLightfoot Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 (edited) The Netherlands and Germany certainly look like candidates for winning the whole thing. 4-0 to Germany now.

Volourn Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 "Don't watch much football, do you?"Â I watch enough soccer, yes, to determine the better team usually wins.
