The 2014 FIFA World Cup
-
The Italians being arch enemies of us Germans in soccer, I should be glad about their elimination. However, they were wronged in this game. The red card against them was a stark exaggeration, and that hearty bite deserved nothing else but being sent off.
Oh well, Italy and England being the two from group D who have to leave now, that's nothing short of sensational.
It's the Latino teams who prevail, and it may well go this way in other groups and in the knock-out stage as well. -
Suarez has earned himself a lifelong ban at this point
-
Life-long I don't know, but if FIFA know what they're doing, they'll keep him away from the remaining tournament.
-
I hate this player. He is a great striker, but the rest of him is just awful. Unsportsmanlike behavior, diving, cheating, whining. Why is he allowed to rot this game?
-
If he isn't banned for the rest of the tournament there is something wrong at FIFA (well, more wrong than the obvious).
Torn by the Japan Vs Colombia game, I have money on Colombia but I always support Japan.
-
Can we please drop a f#cking nuke on Greece already!
-
Oh this was heartbreaking to watch the Ivory Coasts team after this last minute loss via a penalty. Greece is the by far least deserving squad to reach the last sixteen.
Japan didn't show very much, our friends in Nippon clearly have other strengths. -
Now that Greece are through, it's going to be like Euro 2004 all over again!
-
Now, now, Maynard, let's not overreact and panic!
What it does mean at this stage is that either Greece or Costa Rica will make it to the last eight. My hopes are, and my money is on the Costa Ricans. -
3 times is enough. He should be gone. FIFA knows exactly what they're doing, which is maximizing hype and profit over all else. Which makes me think we will see more Suarez.

Things are turning up, two of three of my teams which i feel emotionally attached to have come through.
Seriously now.. no other sporting event, or event of ANY kind, has fucked my productivity like the World Cup. -
Obviously he's not eating enough protein before matches .
Suarez I meant , not Kiya …....
-
Does the Uruguay team not feed Suarez enough that he's always so hungry?! And on another note, it's sad to see Ivory Coast go. They had a good team and I at least expected a QF place from them.

@kiya: What is the third team, assuming Iran and the USA are two of the three?
@louisbosco: Totally am with you about Ivory Coast. It was fun to watch them, and I was so routing for them to advance.
Today am very keen to see how France and Argentina fare, and send some good wishes over to our Swiss friends, their great (German) coach deserves a good closing of his career! -
