I loved the game. Spain have obviously chosen to adapt to Costa. I was dubious at 1st (and still think they're an unnatural fit) but it largely worked today. And he was perfect for those kinds of almost-derby conditions.

Ronaldo got his hat-trick but Costa was my motm.

Blimey! I'm ranked 535099!

!@#$%! · 06.16.2018, 05:48 AM

france oozes individual talent but tactically shitty this first half: slow on the attack and lacking cohesion and conceding too many free kicks into their area thus creating australia’s only chances for them. come on already.

!@#$%! · 06.16.2018, 06:13 AM

shit ref corrected by video

“thanks” umtiti for ruining my varane clean sheet

!@#$%! · 06.16.2018, 06:56 AM

france wins with an australian og but massive disappointment for me and taking out griezmann for what purpose?

no creation in frances midfield a problem

dont know what to think right now i’ll take spain over this team to win it all

!@#$%! · 06.16.2018, 08:03 AM

american ref on argentina-iceland.

pray he dont fuck up

!@#$%! · 06.16.2018, 08:21 AM

el kun!!!

...

oh damn these vikings lol

demonrail666 · 06.16.2018, 08:37 AM

Loving how Iceland are showing zero respect to Argentina. Not even bothering to man-mark Messi.

!@#$%! · 06.16.2018, 08:51 AM

they leave him little space. then they trample all over the argentinian defense. then caballero helps them.

demonrail666 · 06.16.2018, 09:26 AM

messi messed up

!@#$%! · 06.16.2018, 09:56 AM

holy shit these vikings wow they shut them the fuck down

argentina’s defense also dismal

spain for champion? looks like it so far...

!@#$%! · 06.16.2018, 11:33 AM

peru-denmark superintense, i don’t think this pace can last all game

currently an injured dane being swapped out

—

african ref impeccable so far

denmark now in possession slowly getting control

demonrail666 · 06.16.2018, 11:43 AM

Yeah liking this one so far. Carrillo for Peru looks really good. Never heard of him before.

!@#$%! · 06.16.2018, 11:47 AM

lol cueva shoots the moon! lololol

—

speaking of ref, video assist is working great in all games so far

—

carrillo plays for watford?? on loan from benfica

!@#$%! · 06.16.2018, 12:09 PM

peru’s guerrero warming up. if he comes in up front does farfan go left and flores out? that’s what im thinking.

unless something else.

my fantasy team so far a massive dud.

—

“yurari” (who?) is poulson who plays for rb leipzig lol.

—

and speak of the devil. peru had been asking for this.

-

and now as predicted lmao flores is gonna leave. waaaaaah. should have picked carrillo.

germany my last chance

Bertrand · 06.16.2018, 12:25 PM

My friends don't like football and long ago I agreed to meet them at my place.
Hence I got to miss Portugal-Spain (from time to time I'd rise and take a look at my muted screen to see the score evolve that crazy way).
And today, the same for France.
I'm glad Deschamps introduced Fekir ; and Giroud did well for the winner.
Obviously weak, but, well... that should be it. Unless Argentina keeps on screwing things up and both teams meet too early. I'm still confident.
Ronaldo... what a player (I saw his three goals - not a single Spanish one). Amazing.

Bertrand · 06.16.2018, 12:29 PM

Poor Morocco...

!@#$%! · 06.16.2018, 12:56 PM

aaand poor peru. no way they can beat france, so denmark was their chance to move to the next stage. still could happen but very long odds.

really disappointed on all south american teams so far. brazil and colombia still to be seen.

So, rather than moaning about Putin and then watching the World Cup as if it was normal ive decided to initiate a fine of £5 to myself for every match i watch, which I will give to the Memorial Society. This basically means that the more i watch the World Cup, the more i am opposing Vladimir Putin.

Regretting watching this Croatia-Nigera game, its a bit shit. And i was in the bog when the Croatia goal went in.

PENANCE GOOD!

nobody expects the spanish inquisiton xD

ANYWAY tomorrow a big day for me as i have my biggest gambles in the game: timo werner, marco reus, juan cuadrado, and jámes. holy shit! my chnce to score.

in doubt about who to make captainn so i’ve picked timo. bitch best score a few goals!

ok now you owe me 5 libras.

just kidding.

no, it’s a good approach.

i keep thinking of chile’s prisoners under the stadium or argentina 78 with all the disappeared and yeah the world cup is a filthy fucking business but not really.

in the sense that the lotus grows out of the swamp, or some such shit.

well, forgive me for not feeling guilty enough. i hate putín too but remember how the argentinian dictators also fell, and then it was pinochet’s turn.

i am not giving the fucka any legitimacy i swear.

ok friend. but you’re doing a good thing regardless. smart move. i might copy in some way. i’m planning to do all 33 days of world cup so pls suggest me a budget-friendly move.

eta; what about giving your group 33 bucks??
