kactus Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 With all the big teams already out it makes it easier for weaker teams like England to have a chance and revive their 1966 WC dreams. Although have to be said said that some of their fans act like a complete jack a$$ and bunch of to$$ers... So far all my predictions turned out wrong...Germany, Spain, Brazil are all out. Croatia is definitely one of those teams to watch out. To me Belgium Vs. France already looks like a final even though it is semi final. The WC title is still up for grab by any of the 6 nations including the minnows Russia and England. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kactus Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 Great goal by Harry Maguire! Let’s hope England can keep the momentum... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-TSS- Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 When are they going to replay the Colombia-game? You know, Colombians have signed a petition to FIFA that the game must be replayed because they lost and that is not acceptable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CITIZEN_2015 Posted July 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 I hate any wins by England but it is happening again. This time though England was a better team not a lucky team as all previous games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kactus Posted July 8, 2018 Report Share Posted July 8, 2018 Croatia did play really well and as for Russia imagine if they had beaten Croatia. No doubt Putin would have definitely politicised the win and made a big deal out of it. Besides it would have killed the spirit of WC fever and literally 'choked' fans after the Novichok saga... I am kind of thinking that Belgium might just win over France but then again I was wring about all my other predictions....Let's see!

-TSS- Posted July 8, 2018 Report Share Posted July 8, 2018 Europe will take a 12-9 lead over titles after this WC. Unlikely that Europe will ever be caught again. Brazil still remains the most successful single country and may continue to be in the future as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capricorn Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 France goaallllll early in the second half. France is pumped! Mick Jagger spotted in the audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kactus Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 So France is through... What a game! Both teams were disciplined and played well. I just didn't get what the french player was doing towards the end of second half deliberately wasting time. Yellow card rightly awarded.

-TSS- Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 If England wins the tournament we'll hear about it for next 52 years. However, seems that there is no fear of that happening as the French seem to be above everyone else. Rather France than Brazil for me anyday. When Brazil gets knocked out any tournament is saved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kactus Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 Is this really a moment of deja vu? It was exactly 28 years ago when England played West Germany in Italy WC final. There is Croatia to contend with before getting into final. But it’s within reach... Ahhh....a bit of nostalgia from that era that finds itself in New Order.... Common En ger land!

Yes I agree it would be among the worst outcomes. The insufferable Anglo-pansies would have no end of pleasure and happiness if they should win. Buncha peacocks, they'd be hard to put up with at work... Edited July 10, 2018 by OftenWrong added mocking emoticon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be our usual, magnanimous selves. After a short period of modest, dignified celebration of course. Perhaps with a cup of tea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
