M4x18 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 The only teams that have looked like serious contenders are the Netherlands and, sadly, Italy Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alcarin Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 So far: Best match (action wise and equality): England vs Italy Best goal(s): Sturridge, Marchisio, Van Persie(1st), Swiss winning goal! Yet to see a goal from free kick Ronaldo/Furlan style.... Must say even though there are really alot of goals(nearly record breaking) most of the goals are pretty boring to me so far....

M4x18 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 I couldn't believe I was looking at one of the heavy favourites be matched and outmatched by Bosnia. No disrespect to Bosnia, but a team that starts Aguero, Messi and DiMaria should run over anybody that stands in their way. Hats off to Bosnia.

Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Yeah so far the best impression was left by England, Italy, and the Dutch..... Everything else was semi disappointingly, especially the Spanish, Brazilian and Argentine..... Uruguay is forever paper champion anyway so i leave them out :P Next stop is Germany vs Portugal and Ghana vs USA..... see what these 4 can do....

Miami Bomb Squad Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 ok, based on what i saw out of Portugal, USA should go through to the next round. Germany, Italy, Holland and Maybe Brazil are top 4. Brazil had an off day. remember, They are still at home and can turn it up at any moment. Will be able to tell more when they match up against Mexico. Need to see Belgium Play tommorow!

For example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XINpVI_E_A0 (Could not find a better quality or english commentary that i listened to) This is one of the best goals I ever seen in terms of counter attacking....

kishidan69 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Leave it to the current generation of Germany to always turn up at the WC and get straight to business to execute the team action plan with efficiency and no sign of pressure or fear, doesn't matter which football 'giant' side they are playing. Barring injuries, their fitness was top, they broke fast and decisively (Ozil always finding space for himself), great midfield and forward mobility, Muller smart play and ruthless as usual, absence of Reus and Schweinsteiger not an issue Hopefully Klose gets to play in the next few matches - would love to see if he's still dangerous up front. May be up to the Azzurri again to stand a chance in containing them. And Merkel really loves her football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kishidan69 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Dempsey - great captain's goal to lead the charge. Ghana now settled and doing everything they can to get on the scoresheet - I feel an equalizer in the air.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kishidan69 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Why doesn't it surprise me that Portugal were going to capitulate like that against Germany....Coentrao unlucky with the hammy, but Pepe....disgraceful and totally unnecessary.
