What a tale of two halves between Croatia and Portugal

Boring first half but very thrilling second one

Really tough ending for Croatia.

I officially hate any offsides calls now. It's evolved to dog shit. They just cannot get it right.

The rule should simply be If a guy has his feet positioned even or on the midfield side of the defender, he's onside.

Now it's his head, ass and who knows what else that makes him offside!!! hate it. simplify and give the edge to the offense.

@rockchalkjayhawk Yeah, wouldn't it be fun to watch basketball or (our) football if a player was considered out of bounds when any part of his body was outside the line? None of those fun shots falling out of bounds...no reaching back to hit the pylon while helicoptering outside the goal line... Anything requiring super slo mo to detect should be eliminated. Just like the PGA eliminated penalties where the only person to see an infraction was a so-called fan calling in to think he would become an important part of the game.

Good one going on between Argentina and Cape Varde

Can CPV do the unthinkable?

AsadZ

CPV,, what a story

Gave Argentina run for their money

Their second goal is one of the best in this World Cup

Cape Verde played very well all tournament. It is a shame that they lost. On the other hand, Messi keeps playing on.

@patoh3 What a skilled player he is, I believe he is now GOAT

For fans who haven't watched CPV's second goal, I highly suggest watching it, you will not be disappointed

Messi has been given more favorable rulings than anyone else and it's not even comparable. The fix is in.

@rockchalkjayhawk I hope he can show something but I don't see it. This next round is a sign for real progress from usmnt. The tournament would be a success if they make the quarters

@RockChalkinTexas-0 highly suspect, so was the last wc as well. He is very good too, doesn't need the extra help. Fifa is as corrupt as they come
