Damn Argentina what lucky schmucks you are  Grin And that Turkish referee blatantly supported Argentina in the last 20 minutes or so after Rojo handled the ball in the penalty area. Don Diego Maradona luckily spared himself a heart attack in the stands lol. I think France will tear them a new one in the next round though.

Referees were below par during this edition of the world cup. Remember the Switzerland vs Serbia match? It was a complete sham. Serbia was denied a penalty kick. And after the win, the Swiss players (of Kosovan origin) insulted the Serbian fans by doing racist gestures. But FIFA was perfectly OK with all this and they let off the players with a warning.

What are you smoking?

Since when is an eagle a racist gesture
You have it on your flag dude  Cheesy

Serbs were the ones whistling each time a Kosovar got the ball

england players are so happy with the loss against Belgium tonight they knew that getting 2nd place will made them avoid big teams there will be only Spain or Croitia will be a threat for them in semi finals. While in my opinion the most difficult way is the road of Argentina as in the stage of 1/ 16Argentina will face France and if they advance to 1/8stages it will be between them and Portugal or Uruguay and finaly in he semi-finals they are going to face either one of these teams Brazil, Belgium, or Mexico so i think that Spain is going to be a big competetor for WC this season despite the shacky start especialy when you see their defensive side

Germany has not been the same since Khan and  Schweinsteiger left, they were the leaders of the team, well obviously the were still doing good post Khan but lately this team is just not performing the same. They have Kloos but the whole team is not as efficient.

Croatia is now one of my favorites. It's playing solid, and Modric is on fire. Very crazy tournament overall with absolutely no clear #1 contender. Very exciting. Not so good if you are into safe betting tho.

The curse of previous world cup title holders have affected Germany's team today after it had hit Italy and France previously and we certainly will miss the stars of the team who would have certainly entertained millions of fans who are cheering for them.
Not a very interesting day for today's matchs except for the groupe H holding Columbia and Senegal who are still fighting for making the last 16 .
We'll certainly wait for Sadio Mané to make the show who will be leading Senegal's attack , matches by James Rodriguez who'll lead Colombia's especially that he was the play maker of Colombia's last 2 goals .
All group H's games have ended over 2.5 and you can bet on today's games on Sportsbet.io !
World cup curse never breaks and always repeats,such as Spain as the previous defending champion in 2010 could be defeated in the Brazil world cup four years ago, this time Germany exposed the world cup curse and stalled in group stage in 2018 World Cup Russia, this adds History of defending champion cup the world will certainly feel the curse.

Holy smokes this World Cup is going absolutely crazy! South Korea played for their honor with grit and determination and threw out a very weak Germany. I have no words. And on top of that Sweden defeated Mexico 3-0 and finished in the first place of the group. Fascinating  Shocked
My predictions are way off today haha.

We have 2 matches in Group E tonight. Serbia - Brazil & Switzerland - Costa Rica. Brazil and the Swiss have 4 points and the Serbs have 3. Serbia have to win their match in order to advance further. I am gonna play Brazil to win & both teams to score. I like BTTS in the 2nd game. Good luck everyone!

Messi's goal was amazing, the way he balanced the ball, excellent control while in motion then the aim to score it between the goalkeeper's hands, insane. Maybe Messi can recover from all the criticisms he's had, he was falling into pressure, let's hope this is the beginning of a better Argentina.

I would like to see Portugal vs Argentina to see Cristiano vs Messi, that would be awesome for all football fans, even if your country is not involved in the match.

I'm still struggling to find a sports package I can afford since my national TV will only broadcast very few games, towards the finals and with local commentary and poor quality which I don't really enjoy.

Anyone know a good place to buy streaming packages of high quality English language? Searching online isn't very helpful or I don't know how to find them.

You haven't mentioned the most important thing. Your location. Unless we know where you reside, it is impossible to give any advice. In some countries, streaming is available from multiple sources, while in some others none is available.

He can go for an IP tunnel if ever that his location is unable to be streaming, and if he is currently have a international channel he can request for a provider for a sports channel FIFA World Cup is big and I doubt that any sports channel won't be playing each game of the series even some local sports channel will be playing most of the game.

What a thrilling match and all credits go to Rojo, man where did you come from you made Argentina proud in this match. yes Nigeria had a chance to get one more penalty at the end but referee not given bad luck for Nigeria. I thought Argentina will go home but they are really lucky qualified for next round congrats.

A very dramatic day awaits us today with more crucial final matches in the Groups F & E of the FIFA World Cup 2018 in Russia.
Mexico is leading Group F with 6 points from 2 wins. Germany & Sweden have 3 points each. I expect Germany to win vs South Korea today and Mexico to not lose vs Sweden. Germany -2 and Mexico +0 are my choices. I will wait for more news and post picks for the later matches as well.

I think Mexico and Germany will qualify for next round.

What a shocker today will be if Germany can not defeat the Koreans who are such a poor team.
I dont even think S. Korea would be able to score on the championship German team but maybe today on this one.

Anybody thinking about having a bet on the top scorer for the tournament?
I was thinking about having a bit of a long shot which has good odds like Suarez, Firmino or Gabriel Jesus. Even Thomas Muller has some nice odds.

I think it’s too obvious to go for the likes of Messi, it never works out that way any way.

I'm still thinking about it , I may actually go for James Rodríguez
the thing about the top scorer is that you should look at both the price and the teams competing in group stage , and it looks like an easy group when you look to Colombia group since the teams are kinda weak and not defensive so we should expect goals
that's what bookieinsiders also mentioned , and the price of James is 75/1 which is really a decent shot

I'm loving the excitement and buildup towards the World Cup, do you'll feel Ramos could be booed what he did to Salah and Liverpool keeper? Both of them suffered injuries and Ramos latest statement was bit harsh. It's really difficult to pick a top goal scorer so early, will prefer to wait and watch before I decide to pick one.

So my picks are Spain, Germany, France what about you'll?
Including Portugal on the first place in FIFA world cup because they seem in more spirit and the club of Ronaldo has been the champion of many times previously. So they are in good position and the recent FIFA matches also proving its ability and potential. We can not say that which one team will win but I choose Portugal as my best team but I see Brazil as well besides Portugal.

Some highlights for the Iceland - Croatia match. Reportedly the manager of the Croatia national football team is going to rest some key players for tonight's game. Flashscore is showing 7 players. I am not sure how true that information is but I think given the circumstances Iceland might score a goal or even get a point or 3 from the match at best. Maybe Croatia will not play very hard and give them a pass who knows. I for sure will have a couple of bets going on Iceland most likely in the goal and AH markets. Cheers guys  Wink

It can be hard for Iceland to perform well against Croatia, after their brutal loss to Nigeria. And I am sure that Argentina will not qualify for the next round, as long as Jorge Sampolli remains as their coach.

That remains to be seen. Nigeria, Iceland and Argentina all have chances to advance to Round of 16. Nigeria needs a draw while Iceland and Argentina need wins. The most unrealistic scenario tonight would be Iceland winning their match and Argentina drawing theirs which would send the Vikings to the next round. I am rooting for Iceland either way  Cheesy I don't think it's the manager's fault that Argentina are playing so bad but the players'. However Iceland would need to beat Croatia with at least a 3 goal difference which is borderline impossible haha  Grin

Group D is very interesting Croatia already qualified for next round and remaining 3 teams have a chance to take 2nd place in the group. only a few hours left Argentina have a last chance to stay alive in this tournament I think this is Messi last world cup match. I have full confidence that they can give up and go home.
