He is kind of right but

Buying a tshirt to destroy it is kind dumb. Specially if its oficial. They are expensive lol.

#352

I know. my brother's gf is Mexican and bought him an official Mexico one to wear ($95 US) lol. He will never wear it, I mean. What a waste of money. They'll probably break up today.

#353

Choutas

Brazil 2-1 Switzerland

everyone seems in agreement that Germany and Brazil are the clear winners in their games, but the Costa Rica x Serbia game has mixed predictions. a third are predicting a draw, a third a Serbia win and a third a Costa Rica win. So that one will be interesting for the leader board.

#354

Costa Rica 1 Serbia 2
Germany 4 Mexico 0
Brazil 2 Switzerland 1

#355

sorry Chout, I can't give you points for the first game since it's ~30mins in. I'll record the other 2 of course.

#356

looks like a 0-0 sorta game.

#357

now time for an equalizer pls, costa.

#358

SO NERVOUS ABOUT GERMANY x MEXICO

i'm so hesitant about that 1 goal i think mexico can score with this German side. i'm changing to 3-0 for germany.

#363

mostly because the central american/south american countries have underwhelmed me so far tbh (peru ily)

#364

Mexico is North American tho

#365

Rooting for Peru is the path of frustration.

#366

Yea but I meant the Americas

anyway Mexico have put me to shame. Holy hell they're amazing.

#367

Wtf. That should have been a PK for Mexico

#368

Ooooffff klose almost equalized it.

At this point I don't give a shit about my prediction. I want Mexico to win this game.

#369

Me gusta México

#370

That Mexican defence is as sexy as their offence

#371

muy bien

#372

I've never been happier so far in this tournament. If Argentina don't win this WC let it go to Mexico!

#373

Thinking of changing to 2-0 cos of neymar injury

#374

Ok changing to 2-0 for Brazil for sure

#375

I changed my mind.

3-0

Let's go

#378

Oh phew. I missed it yes. I apologize. Great!

#379

Updated. Sorry! xx

#380

No prob.

Mexico were amazing.

#381

If Argentina don't make it far, I'm rooting for Mexico all the way.

#382

I always have a soft spot for Mexico. hoping they make a good run this time.

#383

I like Coutinho more than Neymar tbh

#388

Angry cos it's tru

Same tbh. A lot more.

#390

I admire Neymar's skills, but I don't really like him.

#391

I think Neymar is autistic tbh. Or just abnormally spoiled. He doesn't seem "humble".

#392

Doubt hes autistic but yeah the media spoils him.

His girlfriend is one of the most famous celebrities in Brazilian TV despite having no talent. But shes Neymar's girlfriend so she gets all the best roles.

#393

Brazil scored one goal and now stopped trying too hard.

Classic Tite.

#394

I just think Neymar is spoiled, but in his defence it must be difficult to deal with being the center of everything since you turn 15

#395

Yea I suppose. I just also feel he forgot to grow up.

#396

I always feel like people give Neymar more shit than he deserves though. There is too much hate on him because he is rich, and Brazilians like to hate on other Brazillians who are succesful.

#397

I don't hate Neymar. But he did break my heart when he left Barcelona.

#398

(which in retrospect was a good thing)

#399

Barça are better off without him, Coutinho offers nearly the same end product with none of the drama.

#400

I agree which I why I said it was a good thing in the end.

I predicted 3-0 here and I just realized I predicted 4-0 on the fifa website lol.
