Sorry all, no wakanda forever tonight.

Bring on France, we're ready.
And if all else fails, we'll bore them to death.

Snooze fest. This is the first game I'm switching off. With my luck Senegal is going to score 4 goals now

Good night, sweet dreams, don’t let the bed bugs bite.

It sucks that the teams are not playing as well as they did in the group stages, USA, Aus now Senegal, silly mistakes, poor finishes infront of goal, even Poland were a no show today

Japan v Croatia ought to be a good one. I have no hope for the Portugal v Switzerland game though.

Hopefully Japan V Croatia is a good one, last thing we need is for you to be bored to death and switch off the tv.

Yeah, on paper the Portugal v Switzerland game is the dullest of the round of 16. Looks to be a close fought, scrappy match, with 2 very well organized sides.

Whats wrong with the draw, why are all the top teams facing each other in quarters?

Mostly because of some games going against the odds. Japan winning their group, Germany, Spain, Belgium exiting early etc.

Spain isn't eliminated

The good thing is that there's no Mickey Mouse bracket with all the small teams in it like the last WC, the bracket at England purposely lost to Belgium to be in but still failed at the semis

It's supposed to be like that. It isn't something that is wrong. It is by design.

Oops, sorry - I meant Japan winning their group beating Spain etc

Who switched off the TV? I switched the channel. I still haven't finished watching Andor, you can't tell me the last 30 minutes of that game was more exciting than Andor.

Yet. The word you are looking for is yet

 

[Splinter]

What are you on about?

Do you really need it explained to you?

 

[Icemanbrfc]

I watched a doccie on their stadiums and it seems they've promised to dismantle a lot of them and hand them to third world countries. It is ridiculous that they'd give the hosting to a non football nation. Even when we know the bribe must have been bigger than the usual FIFA.

Rather that, than sit with a white elephant

It would be great to see an African team make it to the quarters, Senegal is now out, so its all up to Morocco tomorrow, hopefully they knock Spain out.
