Mexico beats the former champions in Germany 1-0 in their block game.

Also other teams.

[StarPanda]

So far Portugal vs Spain has been the best match alot of 1-0 and 1-1 games a big let down because the 2014 wc was a scoring fest, but it is soccer

Dam alot of good games lately

Argentina are in panic mode 

Germany needed a clutch goal to stay alive 

And Belgium look really really good 

[StarPanda]

What a day Germnay is out 

Mexico got saved 

Argentina nearly made it in

Brazil are in 

[Jman]

Uruguay is emerging as a dark horse.  So I must post this.

great matchup between japan and belgium. what a heartbreaking way to lose at the last second. 

the mexico v. brazil game went as expected. spectacular performance by memo but mexico needed those early goals when they had the chance.

Yeah Japan vs Belgium was better then expected

Now we have England, Sweden, Russia,  Uruguay, France Brazil, Belgium and Croatia left

I love watching Maradona, his play-style is so captivating

Kisses his uncle, elbows him in the face and puts it in, what a play.

[StarPanda]

So Brazil and Uruguay are out 

France vs Belgium should be good 

Now let's see whose else rounds up the last 4 

[StarPanda]

Belgium vs France should be great 

England vs Croatia another good one 

[Jman]

I was flipping out at the Russia/Croatia game, mostly because I wanted Croatia to win.  They sure waited till the last second.

[StarPanda]

Belgium and England are out 

I will be rootingfor Croatia in the Final but France has a great squad 

[Distortedreasoning]

been watching most the games. should be a good finals, croatia is very scrappy and france is really good. 

[StarPanda]

So it ends the game was good alot of goals Croatia deserved to win they played better overall but France capitalized on all their opportunities, that first foul the lead to Frances first goal should not have been a foul, other then that everything else was called right 

Now we wait 4 years for Qatar which could turn out to be a weird world cup if it will held from Nov-Dec, It should not have been held there in the first place
