Poor showing by Brazil. But now they will stroll through the remainder of the group stage and maybe they will come together more. Neymar was not much of a factor. Struck a poor shot on the goal and PK was not great and should have been saved. Croatia played well enough to win.

 

Spain Netherlands today will be fantastic.

Who else is getting a tramp stamp USA flag if USA wins the World Cup? ha

 

I'm in!

 

Did I hear the announcers correct? The USA team plays on this same field next week. If so, they're gonna have to undertake some serious repairs because it's getting torn up.

 

Yup, same field for USA on Monday.

Cameroon had a few nice opportunities in that game. The wingers crossing passes were a bit "overkicked" (a la EJ throwing fade passes). Otherwise, they played well.

 

Yeah, Mexico was by far the better team, but Cameroon had some good chances.

Horrible officiating once again in the Dutch/Spain game.

 

Is this the corruption we all heard about prior?

 

I don't think so. I think it's mainly because for the group stages, they use refs from more countries which aren't up to the standards of the top leagues in Europe. As the knock out games start, it should get better.

Automatic instant replay on a called foul for a penalty kick should be mandatory. It makes so much sense. Soccer refs are becoming as incompetent as umpires in baseball.
