JadedWolf Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 What Keyrock said, but then the exact opposite. Argentina to steamroll all over Switzerland, Belgium to struggle but eventually win against USA Never attribute to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence.
Meshugger Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Brazil - Chile 3:1 Columbia - Uruguay 1:0 Nigeria - France 1:4 Germany - Algeria 2:1 Netherlands - Mexico 2:2 (3:2 after penalties) Costa Rica - Greece 0:0 (0:1 after penalties) Argentina - Switzerland 2:3 USA - Belgium 2:1 I hope that i get one right. I got 5 out of six correct (only one score though), so my current predictions still stand.

BruceVC Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Predictions for today: Switzerland over Argentina USA over Belgium This is a tough one, my predictions Switz vs Argentina 1-1 ( penalty shootouts with Argentina winning) USA vs Belgium 2-1 Exciting games either way "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Keyrock Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 The Argentinian keeper was so lucky. He made a horrible mistake by staying halfway out instead of coming out to get to the ball first (as he should have) or going back to the goal, but the Swiss player got a terrible strike on it.

Keyrock Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 The Swiss are coming apart at the seams. It looks like only a matter of time until the Argentinians put one in the back of the net. RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks
JadedWolf Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Is it too late to send these two teams home and give the quarter finals spot to Algeria? Never attribute to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence.

Keyrock Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Argentina wins. They're through to the quarters, but they look quite vulnerable. RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks
C2B Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 I can't be angry with the team. Great performance and we gave Argentina a run for its money. Good luck USA in your match.

Malcador Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Argentina wins. They're through to the quarters, but they look quite vulnerable. Same counter as last WC it seems, find a way to choke off Messi. Sad to see Switzerland lose, they played pretty well. And I hate Argentina. Why has elegance found so little following?

sorophx Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 how can you stand this travesty of a tournament. I only watched one game, Brazil vs Chile, and when I saw 3 players try and hit the goalie with the ball instead of the net behind the goalie I suddenly realized, that either this whole thing is bought, or football has degraded beyond repair. I mean, how retarded can you be to hit a low ball into the center of the goal, where the flipping goalie is standing? even if he moves, the ball will most likely hit his legs. and guess what? THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENNED. 3 ****ing times in a row! and then the fourth time! I will never believe that a professional player, who spends all his life sending the ball into the "9" or the "6" will just unlearn that skill in a crucial game. 1 Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland. And having been educated solely by mkreku in this respect I am convinced that Finland essentially IS the wh40k universe.

Amentep Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Well, not disputing that it could be bought (I have no clue if it is or not) but punching it to the goalie in the middle instead of the sides could also be from rushing shots, in my experience. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man
Keyrock Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 The US lucky to escape that half without conceding a goal. Their defense has been porous, to say the least. RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks

JadedWolf Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) How could the Belgians have missed that chance? Oh my, and another. How many 100% chances can you miss, Belgium? Edited July 1, 2014 by JadedWolf Never attribute to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence.
