Deutschland 2-1

USA 3-0 (Shifty: if you guys don't beat the crap out of Slovenia, I'm changing your user title to "Arriba Mejico!")

England 3-1

 

[Coruja]

James... Thats taking away all the confidence on Green.

 

[Zlatan]

Germany - Serbia could be intresting. The other two matches...meh...

 

[ShiftyPowers]

USA 3-0 (Shifty: if you guys don't beat the crap out of Slovenia, I'm changing your user title to "Arriba Mejico!")

This would be a historic win and likely mean England vs. Germany in the first knock out round.

 

[KingPaulV]

Well It was a great day of World Cup football today! Glad the stupor of the first round seems to have passed, lots of goals today.....and better yet France is out..probably anyway...


So hoping for more of the same tomorrow...

3-1 Germany
2-0 US
4-1 England

 

[Reichsdeutscher]

Here's what US fans should do for tomorrow: first, make a giant cardboard cut-out of Slovakia. Second, write "SLOVENIA" on it in large block letters. Third, hold it up at the game behind the American goal.

Good idea.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Neuer
Lahm-Mertesacker-Friedrich-Badstuber
Khedira-Schweinsteiger
Müller-Özil-Podolski
Klose

 

[ShearerM4]

Klose to score a headed goal, obviously.

 

[Krypton X]

Serbia-Germany game is going to be a tight affair. Much of Germany's preparations leading up to the world cup had been centred on this game, so I think they should be up for it, but as it's a bit of do or die game for the Serbs, they might decide to come out of their shells, losing Lukovic is a big blow for them though.

Would be interesting to see if Germany can successfully exert it's usual dominance in the air against the tallest side in the world cup.

2-1 to Die Mannschaft (but still hoping for a bigger victory)

 

[Broodrooster]

Still predicting a 2-0 win for Germany

 

[Back Door Skip]

Oh ****. This group just got interesting...

 

[ShearerM4]

Ugh, so many idiots refs seem to think every foul is a yellow card. He's Spanish too which is no surprise, see them go card crazy in la Liga too.

Both Klose incidents weren't worthy of a yellow. Utterly pathetic.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

This is the worst reffing I've seen in a World Cup in a LOOOOOONG time, just cost Germany a win, possibly cost them any points at all from this game. I'm ******* livid right now.

Why do you have a Spanish ref do a game between two teams like Germany and Serbia anyways? It's not going to be a pussy little touch and go game like they play in Iberria, it's going to be physical. Can you imagine if pussies like this reffed historic games? Most World Cup Finals would have ended with 7 v. 7.

 

[mnj2x]

Klose was constantly fouling all the players. It was annoying but the sending off was a tad harsh. But who cares..the group just got interesting!

 

[Ubik Valis]

Hahah, Deutschland a man and a goal down...excellent.
