Iceland has never come out and really beaten a good team, they just sit back and pounce on mistakes and then stall the last 70 minutes and move on without a good reason why Nobody can really tell how good teams are from Africa, Cameroon a few times has gone far into the playoff rounds.... It's a surprise, but finally Iceland has been exposed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cugalabanza Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I was rooting for Iceland, but Nigeria was really good in the second half. Argentina has a sigh of relief with this result, but they still have to beat Nigeria and that won’t be easy at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeginnersMind Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Loving VAR. Great move and I hope it becomes the norm in all high level matches. Cleaning up a lot of controversies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleaning up a lot of controversies. But replay causes a different and worse problem when relied on, the NBA had four vital and bad situations by relying on replay in the semi finals and finals I rarely cheer for a team or athlete, I just want to see the best play, and I’m routinely ticked off by the inconsistency of use and how they don’t call what is clearly there. Or they have ready excuses to ignore what is clearly there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 German-Sweden match was excellent. Germany was behind most of the game. Sweden got jobbed out of a penalty kick, and played great. Chippy play. All 3 goals excellent. Game winner game scored with less than a minute of stoppage time left. Just an incredible strike! Sweden-Mexico will be excellent game, and probably an elimination game. Wednesday should be fantastic soccer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wednesday should be fantastic soccer Especially, because it will determine where Brazil and Germany will end up in their respective group. It is pretty likely that both make it into the next round; but if one of them ends up at #1 of their group and the other one at #2 (a scenario which is rather probable), the Brazil - Germany game that many pundits expected as the final will be played in the round of 16 instead.
