Ndegwa Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Supporting the US tonight Love the energy and work-rate they possess, don't care if they're not the most fluid side in possession, they do enough to make it entertaining. I'm quietly enjoying the rise of footy out in the US and seeing all the pictures of (cheesy) American fans going nuts in big cities like Chicago and New York...the camaraderie between them is fantastic and to be honest they've shown more passion than England have for a while. So go...err...team USMNT Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Belgium haven't impressed. However, USA's horrifying lack of attacking options and Belgium's solid defence means this has 1-0 Belgium written all over it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Lukaku off the bench to get it please. Actually, a 2-1 USA win with Lukaku scoring the one would be fucking exquisite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Can't believe how much I bum Algeria. Brilliant team: heart, workrate, great on the ball. Just lack that cutting edge to be a top side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Can't believe how much I bum Algeria. Brilliant team: heart, workrate, great on the ball. Just lack that cutting edge to be a top side. they benefit from having a strong backbone. M'Bohli, Belkalem/Halliche, Brahimi and Slimani down the middle. Feghouli is class too.

Ketsbaia Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Brazil v Argentina in the final would be amazing - the clash of two sub-plots. In their first Maracana WC game since 1950, Brazil will be desperate to finally avenge Maracanazo. The pressure on them is enormous. Then there's Messi, who everyone says has to win a WC to be considered the best of all time. He's dragging them there so far. If they do meet, one of these has to give way. It'd be a huge and probably thrilling final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 That's exactly the final that I want like, with Argentina winning. If that happens, it's literally the last 'but Messi hasn't...' thing left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 The things that's surprised me the most in the World Cup hasn't be the thrills and spills and all that but just the general level of football. It's been right across the board aside from maybe 4 or 5 teams, at a really high level of quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Germany v Algeria was class, was also a great atmosphere in Porto Alegre drinking with the German fans. Today is my final day down in Rio Grande do Sul, had a great time including 3 games and 14 goals! Off to Rio tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 You're living the dream from the sound of it, Greg. It has been the trip of a lifetime so far, great to mix the World Cup with getting out into the countryside in Brasil and mixing with locals. Was even interviewed and on the Brazilian TV the other day. All the games have been class as well, massive drinking session party really. It's class being able to have a beer in your seat watching the match, I've only had one mishap on that front, poured a load of beer down the back of a Brazilian lass when Nigeria made it 1-1 in like the 4th minute v Argentina!

Guest firetotheworks Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Hahaha. Brilliant. Ah man, in Brazil, in the summer, amongst the locals, drinking in the stadiums at probably the best World Cup in our life time. Memories to cherish there like.
