Final score doesn’t tell the story of that Senegal Netherlands game.

On one hand, Senegal have to be disappointed with the result, on the other hand they played well. Going to be an interesting match between Senegal and Ecuador. Winner of that one will likely advance; as expected from the start.
 
Y’all countrymen or nah?

34 minutes until opening kick!
 
Gotta like what you see so far. USA have definitely been in control of this match.
 
Wales have had a lot of dangerous crosses in the first 17 minutes of this 2nd half.
 
At least we can get a point out of this match
 
USA is missing a Depay/Dempsey/Ronaldo/Kane/Benzema
 
I guess that's why I don't really like watching soccer (despite playing regularly for 30 years and loving every minute of it). Only two goals scored. game ends in a tie. Tie is result of a penalty kick. Not any really brilliant plays.

Argentina :lol:

They didn’t take Saudi Arabia seriously, and that’s what happens.

Something like 20% of the time a team loses their first match and advances from group. I like Argentinas chances to be 1/5 teams to do so.

Was surprised to see the result. Huge disappointment.

1-1, 0-0 draws are what make the sport what it is. It’s great in my opinion.

Can’t agree more. The game lacked in overall excitement.

You’ve got a nice perspective having played it for that long. So you know what the game is like as a player.

I only played when I was young.
 
Japan Vs Germany was the match I was torn about.

Must say, I’m content with the result.
Japan 2
Germany 1

Konnichiwa Japan!

Wow, impressive. Always nice to see traditional powers receive more than they bargained for.

Announcers kept mentioning Germany’s loss to Mexico 4 years ago and the German’s disappointing 2018.

Going to be tough for them now. Will need to beat Spain and Costa Rica, while hoping for the loser of Japan Vs Spain to have a tough game against Costa Rica.

*Spain currently up 1-0 against Costa Rica*

Germany won the World Cup like 12-16 years ago. I think Thomas Muller was on that squad.

Edit: They won it in 2006 and 2010.
 
I think France has been the most impressive so far. The defending champs looked like such.

It’s got to feel good to be an England fan and see that last cups golden boot winner H.Kane didn’t even score a goal in their 6-2 thrashing of Iran.

Those two teams are going to meet rather early if things go both Nations’ way. Might bode well for the runner up in the group.
