I like Jesus, but Firmino should be starting for this Brazil team. I'd probably put Firmino in the hole where Coutinho is and. Move him out to the right and put neymar up top. OR maybe that's dumb. But Firmino is just too good to be on the bench. I'd also start Fernandinho over Paulinho
 
that's a penalty imo. Defender has two hands around him and clips his leg

side not is that Neymar has been so ass this match. I'll write that and he'll probably score the winner though

Belgium and England both finishing out the first rd of teams playing. Like both of those teams potential. Not sure either team has the experience or managers to make it all the way though. Who knows though. Kane, sterling, De Bruyne or Hazard could just have a hell of a tourney and propel their teams far. I like this england team but think their midfield sucks

didn't watch the first game, but watching this match now and the gulf in talent between Belgium and Panama is enormous. This one could get ugly

Belgium running away with this like you’d expect. A better team will take advantage of Belgium’s lack of fullbacks though

Wasn’t really excited about either of the first two matches today. Sweden/Korea just seemed like a boring matchup based on some of their previous performances. Belgium-Panama is just such a mismatch.

Interesting backline of Walker, Macguire and Stones. All are good with the ball but Stones is an accident waiting to happen
 
My god. Sterling with one of the worst misses I've seen. Looked like a child that had never kicked a ball before
 
Both Lingaard and Sterling are great at getting themselves in the right positions but neither fan finish worth ass
 
Boring second half so far. England seem like they don't give a shit and are fine with a draw
 
Leaving Kane alone at the far post. Karma though for the way Tunisia has literally been tackling him on all the set pieces so far this match. Looks like England have this one
 
Wanna see Ian Wright's reaction to the goal.

he was wide open as hell. But fair fuggs to Kane for having the composure to put that header right in the corner
 
No priority games tomorrow. Kind of curious if Columbia is still the force it was in ‘14. Egypt with Salah could be a different animal too. But all the opponents are uninteresting

Lol. Idiot from Columbia getting a stupid red card. I don’t know the tournament rules but he could miss the next two games too
 
Surprised to see that Colombia still looked like the better team down a man. I figured they'd be the better team 11v11, but it's really hard to still take it to an opponent being down a man for 40+ minutes. I wonder if that will catch up with them late in the match. Japan didn't do much to create many chances with the advantage.
 
weird one in a million kind of goal in that senegal match. Just happened to be on the sport's biggest stage. Can't fault the ref for allowing the player back on. He let him on before the Poland player made that back pass so it wasn't an advantage or anything. Just a freak play.
 
No idea why Spain starts Lucas Vasquez when they have Asensio and Alcantara on the bench. Costa is such trash too.
 
Got damn. three 1-0 games today. Kind of a boring day for the greatest tourney in the world. Kind of thought Iran deserved a result there but it just wasn't meant to be.

France v Peru and Argentina v Croata will hopefully be two really fun games tomorrow. Peru was playing some really open and fun soccer last match
 
Argentina getting their asses handed to them in this game. It's amazing that a team with so much attacking talent can look so hopeless offensively
