      Some great games today

      Brazil coming from behind to win in the last minute of stoppage time

      Germany getting knocked out by Paraguay

        Finally done catching up to the games today.
        Missed the Germany game, so not sure how they lost.
        Just watched both the Brazil and Morocco games.
        Wow. Can’t believe the Dutch lost! That was a U-G-L-Y pk shootout!
        Ha, but what do I know. I badly shanked my only pk attempt in high school.pressure!

          A full European crash out would be neat but France and Spain are too good sadly. Mostly thanks to colonization for France.

            @rockchalkjayhawk PG came with a great game plan and executed it perfectly. Germans just could not create good shots even when controlling the possessions.

              I tell my players if you don't make mistakes on defense you'll win the game. Japan guy made a horrible pass in stoppage time and 10 seconds later Brazil had their winner. I wonder if Japans coach tells them that?

                Exciting match today. Ivory Coast was quite the challenge for the Scandinavians. Looked like it might be going to extra time but an 88th minute goal by Norway sealed the deal.

                  How good is France

                  Looks to be the best team in the tournament

                      These players are so skilled, at a different level than others.

                        Mbappe is totally at another level. I know he’s been one of the best players in the world for awhile, but we don’t get watch him much. His technical ability is nuts. I was most impressed with the power and accuracy he can put behind a shot.

                          Kane was fun to watch oo la la! Lol
                          (Kelly Oubre.....traded to Pacers)
                          I want us to score early and again and let the crowd fire them up. No time like the present. USA

                            @RockChalkinTexas-0 yes

                            Stars have showed up big time in this World Cup

                            Kane, Messi, Mbapae

                            What a dramatic win for Belgium and heartbreaking loss for Senegal

                              Can't waste scoring opps by being offside.

                                  Not quite sure about the red card there, but I really don't care that much.

                                      USA! Victory. that's nice, especially with that red card. I was watching from afar, so it wasn't clear to me it was deserved. Seemed like he was stumbling and there was no intent?

                                        @rockchalkjayhawk I agree. No intent. It looked bad on the replay. A man down and we kept them scoreless. Matt Freese was everywhere!

                                            And yeah that red card was horse shit. The fall off to Pepi for the Belgium game is a real killer. He suuuucks.
