FFS I nearly bet on Olic to score first then thought na hes a playmaker he'll no doubt get the assist. Cuntflaps. Past 2 days have been dreadful.

Is it just me or are Croatia managed by Jospeh Gordon-Levitt?

I missed the France game how did they look?
edit; forgot Germany they looked decent.
France & Germany the only ones looking strong. Valbuena is a monster, Benzema finds the net; defense okay. Not sure if Sakho would be a better D than Kosc against more technical teams. Evra was a liability as always. Varane looking strong though, as did Griezmann and Pogba. Sissoko and Matuidi good, especially the latter with two or three nice plays. Giroud without any influence in the last 15', but I guess that was to be expected. Cabaye solid.
I feel like Italy has readily available potential though.

Haha no surprise about Evra.. I rate Matuidi a lot.. look forward to seeing their next game; see if they flop a little like holland or if they can keep up the pace.
Shame about the 4-0 Croatia result, the scoreline reflects the red card more than how the teams played.. Cameroon gave it more of a go than Spain did so fair play.
Finished on a high, had Manzuk to scored and Croatia to win.. when he scored to make it 3-0 I stuck him in as next goalscorer 4/1 and he got the 4th

We didn't look very good but it doesn't happen often that we win after being set back + having to break through 11 players on their half,.. still expected more
edit; not talking about first half obviously
also yeah Germans wtf, even when thety don't play full throttle it's still
also; quite impressive, didn't even have to look

Brazil held, Spain out and Ronaldo injured.
Not a bad couple of days.
My money is still on Germany though...though the idea of them playing Netherlands with current form is just amazing.

Dope photo on the front of La Marca today
Still fucking love Iniesta>> that shot near the end was gully + so many little glimpses of quick feet/mad passes, pity the rest of the team were nowhere.
Dont know the reason behind leaving Xavi/Cesc out but a CM combo of Busquets/Alonso aint going anywhere

Yeah France looking good, the only thing is I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we don't get any serious injury in the starting 11 'cause there's a couple of positions where our bench is really weak, especially in the middle.
