last time i host one of these bitches.

a lot of us scored 12/16 but only [mention]melatonii[/mention] got a whooping 14/16 correct in pre-game predictions for the group stages! JJJ was also the only to score 13/16.

group stage player pre game prediction scores:

France vs Argentina - 0-1
Uruguay vs Portugal - 2-2 (portugal on penalties)

4 years should be enough for you to change your mind.

I was thinking of hosting a euros 2020

another fun fact, [mention]wolbre04[/mention] was the only one to predict a South Korea upset against Germany

I would love this if Mexico beat Brazil.

I don’t see it. Mexico will always let you down.

But I’m rooting for a Croatia vs Belgium final

Looks like those that predicted Tunisia Panama 2-1 got two points instead of 3

I'm sorry. I am numerically dyslexic. I've kept record of all predictions in first post to check whenever I have time. I'll do that later.

I'm assuming we're just predicting the scores after 90 minutes? Put predictions for the final result next to the draws just in case not....

France 2-1 Argentina
Uruguay 0-0 Portugal (Urugauy win on penalties)
Spain 3-1 Russia
Croatia 2-0 Denmark
Brazil 1-1 Mexico (Brazil to win 3-1 AET)
Belgium 3-0 Japan
Sweden 1-1 Switzerland (Switzerland to win 2-1 AET)
Colombia 2-2 England (Colombia win on penalties for M A X I M U M C O M E D Y)

Argentinaaaaaaaaaa

Holy crap it's already 3-2 welp gg

Dis game

Argentina has 4 minutes left and they chose to spend them kicking a ball on a fallen opponent, then bitching about a yellow card.

The ref did not compensate the time they blew.

Welp. Hope Argentina has grown up by 2022.

Rip to my dreams. Time to cheer on Sweden.

Argentina deserved to lose, but boy they know how to put up a fight. That was great watching. France can definitely win this thing.

Portugal/Uruguay got pretty sloppy. Portugal totally lost their composure and I thought the better team won.

Spain 3 Russia 1
Croatia 2 Denmark 1

Spain 2-0 Russia
Croatia 2-1 Denmark

Spain 2-1 Russia

Croatia 2-0 Denmark

Sadly I'll be doing stuff with humans who don't care about in the evening and will miss CroatiaxDenmark but I am expecting a tight amazing game.

SpainxRussia.....I should probably predict more goals. When Russia is losing, they are sloppy.

Let's go 4-1 with Spain vs Russia

look at Mother Russia now

Russia is a boring upset. I still just assume they're all doping. They're not a fun underdog to root for.

Crushed Portugal is out, too bad about Argentina, but goddam it I totally nailed the prediction for Spain 1 Russia 1 (Russia wins on pens).

I agree, but hey I’m fine with them taking Spain out. They need to lose the next one.

lol I paid the German team to lose :P

I do apologise I forgot to do this so Ignore the ones that are live or have started Games in Chronological Order

Monday 2 July
Brazil vs Mexico - (Match 53) 3-1
Belgium vs Japan - (Match 54) 4-1

Tuesday 3 July
Sweden vs Switzerland - (Match 55) 3-2 I can't believe that I'm predicting Sweden to fucking advance again
Colombia vs England - (Match 56) 2-4

If my newfound faith in Sweden fails me:

I love these black Croatian uniforms.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Sun Jul 01, 2018 3:37 pm I love these black Croatian uniforms.

Yeah they’re good stuff.

Whoa, last minute penalty miss.

I was all in on Croatia but I sort of want the Denmark penalties win after that save.

Holy shit these penalties

Subasic the hero

That was fantastic. Subasic already looked like a candidate for golden glove after pool play but he definitely does now.

Already have the same points in these last two days I got in all of the third round.

Golden wrote: ↑Sun Jul 01, 2018 4:36 pm I was all in on Croatia but I sort of want the Denmark penalties win after that save.

This is exactly how I felt. I’ve adopted Croatia as my new team, but after that save I found myself kind of rooting for Denmark. It would have been awesome. Great game either way. Both teams could have won and it would have been well deserved.

Mexico 1 Brazil 1, Mexico wins in penalties
Belgium 3 Japan 0
