[Achilleaze]

Whether you like soccer or not, you have to acknowledge that the World Cup competition in Russia is the Bigliest International THING going down right now, and global eyes are watching intently.

right now Mexico (representing North America) is getting its green clock cleaned by the yellow-blue of Sweeden Late in the game, Sweeden leading 3-0.

2. We'll know in six minutes

If South Korea keep this as adraw Mexico and Sweden go through. If this goal is good Germany is out - yep the goal counts
Korea 1

5. An amazing day

Don't see Mexico beating this Brazil side but the ball is round.

8. They almost made tragic history today

It would have been too cruel.

9. 3 of 4 of Brasil's back 4 are dodgy. And the best one of the 4

BY FAR, LB Marcelo went off injured. Zero clue why they dont play Marquinhos at centre back, he is top 6, maybe top 4 in world, yet they go with old and slow Miranda and Thiago Silva. Germany did same thing by force-playing a massively sub-par Boateng and they are going home.

I am atm in Sweden so it was pretty crazy here, especially after we choked v Germany on last kick of game. It got all racialised too, with mad race hate directed at Jimmy Durmaz after he made the stupid foul that gave Kroos the winning free kick.

4. Mexico WINS for losing !!!

Despite getting their culos kicked by Sweeden (3-0), Mexico is jubilant and will advance to the Group of 16 thanks to South Korea ecstatically beating defending-champion Germany (2-0).

Dirty Donny, the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief and fear-besotted Wall-Building Moral Midget, will likely be pissed. As usual.

6. That's the part I like most

7. The Draft-Dodging Moral Midget (R) part?
