Lets hope. I have Mbappe to win the golden ball
Dude he’s so dirty. That last goal yesterday where he just pulled up cold 1v3 and drilled it so hard into the top corner it didn’t matter if the keeper got a hand on it was just ice cubes.

Croatia beats Japan 4-1 on PKs. The Croatian keeper makes 3 saves on what quite frankly were pretty terrible takes from the Japanese.

No pretty about it, they were bad. Seemed to be too worried about placement but had no power on those shots at all. I also keep seeing players do that stutter step and just about stop before taking the kick costing them momentum and power.

Yeah, my 14-year old has taken much better PKs lol. And on that note, what was 3rd Croatian player doing? I've seen guys be nonchalant about it but that was a bit extreme.

How the hell is it that I found out from ESPN.com that Neymar scored before hearing it from Pedro?
Glen Davis and Cerrano are fighting to the death for the job. When we have a winner we will finally get our updates

For like the 10th time in this thread I'll say that I dont watch football outside the WC. It very easy to see the clear difference in class of him vs \other teams stars. At least as a finisher.

Pulisic won't ever be at that level for the simple reason that his shot isn't a rocket. He can finesse with the best but he just isn't going to take a shot from 25 yards out and score a galozo. Just not his game. Reyna has the physical tools. Will he develop the technique and mindset remains to be seen. But what we need way more than power is guys who can clinically finish.

Not to be outdone by the Japanese, Spain with one of the worst PK showings I've seen from a soccer power. 0-3 from the spot in the shootout.

Ronaldo on the bench for Portugal's knockout round game.

Yeah, Christian is more of a playmaker, he scores a decent clip, but I think that's more from having no one else besides Reyna than him being that elite.
Can't get guys to finish if they are sitting on the bench

Portugal 0 - 0 Switzerland
Ronaldo will not earn a cap this match

Does Brazil really have much of a real threat in their half of the bracket.
I'd expect them to get by Croatia but either Argentina or the Netherlands is capable of beating them. Prior to the Saudi Arabia game Argentina hadn't lost in 36 matches. They hadn't lost since summer 2019.

I hope you didn't wager on either of those two things because I suspect they will both end up being wrong.
