I mostly like several German biathletes, the day I cheer for the German football team is the day I jump off a bridge.

Besides, Germany has never really done that well in Russia

Hope!

Well crap

To be fair, it still has to grow. I'm sure in four years it will be much better. At least football is finally starting to do what other sports have been doing for years

Why do Pospisil and Roman both have number 18?

Yet with 6 points after two matches there's not a lot to complain I think

Tried that last year for the 24 hours of Le Mans, then started to get sick in the morning (although in other years I had more success)

F*cked

I thought Tunisia qualified after a 0-0 draw against Libya, but I do remember some shady stuff going on in those qualifications

Lukaku is on fire

Literally

Neymar can take an example from Lukaku: falling in the penalty area but immediately raising his hand to signal it was nothing but simply a fall.

Many websites also noted the penalty was, when looking at the replay, a penalty. Maybe there's a lone referee here and there who would have decided otherwise, but it's not even close to a robbery or something.

What does Lukaku have with Congo DR apart from having a dad who lived there in the first part of his life?

I highly doubt it.

It definitely was. The foul was clear and it was right on the line, which means inside the penalty box.

Me too! I think during Belgium's last match, I remember thinking what on earth Belgium or Panama would have with Kyrgyzstan

Has anybody else noticed the random appearance of usually a single Uzbekistan flag in the stadium (behind the goal now, other times it's somewhere in the stands) at basically every match so far?

Maybe they can wait until the two teams meet in the quarter finals or something, and then let them continue as one without having to play the quarter final.

Game of Thrones spoiler-like meme (hence the spoiler), but I liked it

And then they lose their challenge if their wrong, they won't take that risk that easily.

Crying wolf scenario or not, Neymaring his way through the game or not, that moment where two Swiss players pulled him down as if their lives depended on it was a very clear penalty and that's exactly the kind of thing VAR should take care of. Yet another reason why, in my opinion, using the VAR should be partially in the hands of the teams. As in, give both teams 1-2 uses of the VAR per match/half, which they get to keep if they are right and they lose if they're wrong. Much like in hockey.

Yeah because Brazil easily beats Switzerland and will never have a problem with Costa Rica of all places

I swear I'll paint the walls white if that happens.
