The draw is not a bad result for either in any case.

Yeah even Cronaldo was smiling.

He's the first player to score a hattrick against Spain in WC 👌

Definitely, hoping to find some offensively massive screens in town to watch the games outdoors. Except for the one playing during breakfast, that is.

Breakfast??? It's at 12pm 😜 you lazy ass. It's going to be goal infested so a fun wakeup call.

We have no places nearby with offensively large screens so I'm not moving my ass out of the house for 2 days tbh :p

Take tips from [mention]melatonii[/mention]. He is in Australia and has a similar predicament. His solution is power naps and not sleeping but staying up for games. :p

Do you really think Nigeria is stronger than Croatia? I haven't seen much of Nigeria in the last 4 years tbh.

Croatia are definitely better. But I'm tired of spending years and years hyping Croatia as the dark horses for every competition and having them always let me down. And Nigeria are good enough to surprise them.

It's the trap of 3rd place. They got 3rd in 1998 and then it took me a while to accept it was a fluke. Same with Korea, which I thought was good after 2002. Meh.

The team is called Moscow Marauders, but I can't seem to get Fifa's site to work properly, always malfunctioning and timing out. FFS FIFA.

oh I tried putting the team together despite promising I won't cos I know they fuck me over with errors every time. It wouldn't even load properly when I tried to do it early match day so fuck that. :p

also OMFG counter penalty? really? holy shit. 1-1

after a boring first half this is crazy.

things I don't understand in football:

why do players try to change the refs mind after a yellow card?

every fucking time.

number of times ref has backed down = 0

I'll change my prediction for peru x denmark to 1-2 right now. I just feel it's gonna happen. Denmark are on fire atm.
