Are Colombia doing a Pierre Menard Portugal's world cup campaign of 2002? Shock slightly farcical opening defeat. Second game, dick all over Poland. Third game...

In Poland's previous two world cups, they were indeed eliminated after two games, but won the ensuing dead rubber Game of Honour, so watch out Japan

Colombia went to quarterfinals last time w/o Falcao, and w Quintero still in diapers. I'm picking them for winner this time.

never happen but nothing wrong with a hipster pick regardless

I signed up but the piece of shit erased the first team I agonizingly selected so I gave up before the tournament started. No idea how I even earned points lol.

A friend of ours is in Colombia right now and sent a video of the reaction to the first goal and it was just off the scale.
― Matt DC, Monday, 25 June 2018 08:58 (five years ago) link
the revelation of the finals so far for me is that in spanish they call the last 16 "octavos de final" so i am lobbying for english to either adopt "eighth finals" or "octavos" for this otherwise inconsistently named round of the competition.
― Roberto Spiralli, Monday, 25 June 2018 13:41 (five years ago) link
with semis and quarters, octavos makes a helluva lot more sense than 'last 16' tbh. i'm in favor.

Iranian fans tried to keep the Portuguese awake, blowing their vuvuzelas at the Portugal hotel. Cron responded by signing ppl are asleep, it seems. Though I've no idea why he taps on the window.

Salah should have two. Misses when straight through on keeper
― groovypanda, Monday, 25 June 2018 14:25 (five years ago) link
And an embarrassing miss in the exact same position.
He will get three at least if KSA defend like this.
