I just read that Altidore is playing again. Is that true? Would be great, always liked him when he played over here.

Aye I can go with that one. The rumours that he's going to Liverpool please me none.

VIVA CHILE

ha ha ha ha

no, if chile wins there will be riots

Belgium have had some problems with their defenders; a bug here, a knock here, a strain for a third guy...
USA stand a chance, considering how Belgium looked numb in the first days.

and yet, van buyten came out looking as one of the pretties defenders in the fantasy thing

i have filled my fantasy team in the most cynical way. i'm sure i'll pay for this.

!@#$%! · 06.28.2014, 11:21 AM

mena's hand --> free kick --> corner kick --> david luiz or jara's own goal?

MENA GRANDíSIMO UEÓN

demonrail666 · 06.28.2014, 11:54 AM

Own goal for me but either way, fantastic first half.

!@#$%! · 06.28.2014, 12:52 PM

the 2nd not so much

if they go to penalties, julio césar loses

!@#$%! · 06.28.2014, 01:21 PM

!@#$%! · 06.28.2014, 01:56 PM

oh damn! damn damn damn!

i need a nap now.

demonrail666 · 06.28.2014, 02:00 PM

Wow. I'm actually exhausted after that.

Bertrand · 06.28.2014, 02:17 PM

Damn it...
Brasil scored, then stopped playing an attack-minded game, got punished... and didn't do a thing during the second half.
Fernandinho looked exhausted, Oscar had nothing left in him.
Too bad Chile lose.

For Brasil, I thought David Luiz was really cold headed and a reassuring presence.

Still, I wished Chile had won it.

***

To juppjuppjupp... what do you mean, a cynical way?

My fantasy team:
Bravo (10) / Manolas, Gamboa, Duarte / Borges, Valbuena, Cuadrado, Rodriguez (captain) / Martinez, Benzema, Neymar (5)
Warming up: Cillessen, MBolhi (they won't leave the bench) / Mertesacker, Halliche, Bouguerra and the ghost of Sadeghi / Bentaleb, Lacen, Bedoya, Di Maria (most probable sub) / the ghost of Heydari, Müller (to replace Neymar most probably)

EVOLghost · 06.28.2014, 02:30 PM

Got damn. Unfortunately I had to listen to the radio broadcast but fuck that was exciting. Fuxkin' Chile man....

!@#$%! · 06.28.2014, 02:41 PM

cynical: yesterday i had to run errands all day. left home at 8am and came back almost at midnight.

and i needed to sleep, and i had to transfer, so:

i picked my team by the math in about an hour.

no heart, just numbers.

i wanted to have alexis and medel on my squad but the numbers said no. i was too tired to argue. (probably a good thing? don't know their points)

i feel a bit dirty, but my new captain neymar didn't score and has low points (cosmic justice). so now james is in.

my current squad:

karnezis
manolas--marquez--hummels--gonzales
james ©--mascherano--cuadrado--herrera
neymar 5--müller

subs
mbolhi--enyeama
halliche--medjani--van buyten
bentaleb--maniatis-- tejeda--beikzadeh(is out but costs $1)
slimani--musa--benzema

i have no love for the greek team and yet i have 3 of their players.
i don't think nigeria will go through but musa is in
algeria, same thing (i had halliche + bentaleb in the previous rounds but they turned out great "fillers")
i like van buyten from bayern and i'm happy he's doing well but i want the usa to go through
etc.

!@#$%! · 06.28.2014, 02:58 PM

the uruguayan national anthem is kinda funny

the music sounds like a rossini overture (awesome)

but when they start to sing nobody can keep time

demonrail666 · 06.28.2014, 03:49 PM

Maybe the intensity of the Brazil Chile game burnt me out a bit but I'm really struggling to get into this one. Rodriguez's goal was a peach though.

!@#$%! · 06.28.2014, 04:08 PM

THANK YOU JAMES

colombia plays so purty. that passing combo was gold.

glory.

in the previous world cup i recall an announcer proclaiming that uruguay certainly has one of the most moving national anthems

SuchFriendsAreDangerous · 06.28.2014, 04:38 PM

Chile played a GREAT FUCKING MATCH...

Just had some bad luck to post on a potential game winning goal in the final seconds AND post on that last kick in the shoot out which would have taken it to Golden Goal..

I don't think Brasil took their feet off the gas on their attack in the 2nd, its just that Chile's defense stepped up big and shut everything down mostly midfield at that! I saw so many red jerseys popping up in every Brazilian with the ball's face that I thought I was watching 2012 Miami Heat super trap-oriented swarm defense!

I think that Brazil should be very fucking worried if they actually plan on a deep run here.. In case they didn't notice while the crowd was INSANELY loud it didn't phase Chile ONE SINGLE BIT..

!@#$%! · 06.28.2014, 04:54 PM

and this is why in conmebol colombia qualified 2nd and uruguay merely by a cunthair.
