Not a viewpoint I could ever see myself agreeing with...
Well to each his own.
Agreed. There have been some fabulous goals in this tournament, but (IMO, anyway) none better than Cavani's in that game. Both quite brilliant.
I just hope Cavani recovers in time for the match against France.
Uruguay will need Cavani if they're going to have any hope of beating France. I think he'll be back.
Supposedly this was Messi's final World Cup, but if he keeps himself in shape it's possible he could still be in good enough condition to go again in 2022, though he'd be 35 by then. Ronaldo is already 33, but he's such a freak of nature and keeps himself in such good shape, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he comes back for one more go in 2022.
Messi could have played for Spain had he chosen to do so, many years ago. I appreciate that he decided to represent his country of birth and where he spent his early years, but I sometimes wonder if he regrets not choosing Spain. Barcelona took him in and paid for his medical treatments when no Argentinian team would or could, and he's lived there now far longer than he lived in Argentina.

Works for both teams (and probabbly a lot of teams).
Apparently, Spain is not very liked in my neighborhood
This half of the bracket is so much more interesting than the other half. Belgium and Brazil are probably going to win tomorrow, which would mean one of Uruguay/France and Belgium/Brazil will go to the final. Out of those four, I hope Belgium goes through. They look really strong and they also haven't won the World Cup yet, so that's a bonus.
Meanwhile on this half of the bracket, only England have won the World Cup previously. I like this English side, but I'd still prefer a new winner. I think Belgium vs. Colombia would be a fun final.

Denmark scores! 1-0!
Croatia scores after only 3 mn. 1-1.
I feel like this game may have a lot of goals.
