World Cup 2014 discussion thread.

Wow, that was shambolic by the Ghana keeper.

Some group of death, half of the teams are in disarray.

Ronaldo taketh, and giveth.

Ghana, you're killing me! Two stupid goals given up.

Fucking hell, at least we can be sure there was no collusion.

5/6 teams that played in Manaus lost their next game.

#CONCACAF tho

Congrats USA. Has to be said that Portugal and Ghana were much poorer than expected, but you deserved it in the end.

When will African countries get their shit together? Cameroon fighting over money and each other, Ivory Coast choking at crucial moments, Ghana with off field problems like Cameroon and stupid defensive errors. Nigeria are lucky they are through to the next round. Algeria has a chance to advance today, but I'm not going to bet on it.

It's the blacks, they always end up dragging things down.

Win -> Draw -> Loss

This is 2002 all over again, so we'll beat Belgium 2-0 and lose to Argentina 1-0 via controversial call. Sounds alright.

Messi hand of Jesus confirmed.

I had to make sure several times that I wasn't reading an Onion article.

America y'all. Doing just enough to get by since  1776.

Why the fuck would you even look at an Ann Coulter piece.

Because someone posted it on Facebook. 

Algeria equalize which means they are advancing and will play Germany if the score stays.

If they score and win and South Korea beats Belgium then Algeria finish first and Belgium second.

lmao that article is great. It's like what would happen if you gave a youtube commenter on a video titled "American football v Rugby hits" the platform to present an entire article on soccer.

You can't use your hands in soccer. (Thus eliminating the danger of having to catch a fly ball.) What sets man apart from the lesser beasts, besides a soul, is that we have opposable thumbs. Our hands can hold things. Here's a great idea: Let's create a game where you're not allowed to use them!

  Such a troll.

This is why I hate Algerians and other North African teams. They are super time wasters.

They've (bitter anti-soccer trolls) have always used the no hands thing as an argument. That makes the game a bit more animalistic then I suppose, which makes it that much better.

You might be right Steve, actually if anything we should be commending Luis Suarez for making the game more interesting, not punishing him.

bye bye communists

And it makes van Gaal's ridiculous comments look even more delusional when you also consider Brazil have got the hardest draw.

His comments were true but Brazil, to their credit, didn't take the choice presented to them and did their best to win.
