The ONLY World Cup thread (merged)

Can't believe Mexico are in this position. After beating Germany and South Korea they could be out of the tournament. Still fully expect Germany to get the win.

Absolutely - it is both shocking and sad in equal measure cos they were great to watch for the neutral as well 8)

Normally I would like to see sweden do well, but I have tbh and admit that this sweden time is not that likeable and I cant explain why :? :oops:

Sweden are dark horses for this tournament......any team that knocks both Holland and Italy out at the qualifying stage can't be bad.

I genuinely thought that Germany couldn't finish ahead of Mexico because Mexico had beaten them...thought head to head took precedence over goal difference.

Should Germany fuck this up it would be what three times in three straight World Cups that the defending champions have been eliminated at the group stages.

It's looking irrelevant now. Still scoreless for Germany with only stoppage time left.

Six minutes injury time seems excessive
