Group F - Germany/Sweden/Mexico/Korea Rep

[Wallace]

Well second round has been better, first round was insanely boring.

I’m glad Sweden lost. Fuck the football they play. This world cup has been the worst world cup ever since I started watching football. Every single team parks the bus with the exception of 5 or 6 of the top teams. Everyone else just sits back and hope to score either from a set piece, penalty, counter attack or a fluke goal. It’s pathetic and boring.

Let's be realistic if Kuwait or Canada were in the WC would they attack against Germany or sit back and counter? You have to be reasonable with what you have, we can't buy players in national teams, this is the squad under the Swedish team's disposal he can't be blamed for choosing this approach which actually worked until kroos's brilliance, Germany was clueless and kept at bay.

The last time Germany played worldclass was 2006.

2014 was lucky and there were just no better teams (maybe only Argentina)

i even dont wonder if they still win this WC too with this luck.

i would think having like 16 shots on goal and the majority of the possession and still losing is the definition of unlucky.

Germany need a close. They seem to know how to get the ball to their players behind the parked bus but not a real finisher in the box. Mueller shouldn't be playing as well.

They do need a Kloser.

 

[Ziyad]

I actually wrote Klose...stupid autocorrect

 

[thatdude]

Has Mueller been shit for years now or is it just me?

 

[Besnik]

Can't believe a player like Sane was dropped. He would give Germany a massive boost of fantasy in their attack which is lacking so much in these beginning games of the tournament.

 

[chipschups]

World cup starting looking good now, I really enjoying this past 2-3 days. Some unexpected result coming and probably there is more. Germany x sweden games just prove different mentality between great player and the rest, Kroos made mistake but then he bounce back for the rest of the match. Argentina should learn from this games how big team act and having mentality as big team. Sweden ha d a chances to buried the games at first plave but then Neueur had superb games to made sure Germany not get kicked out too early.

Maybe because he broke out so early, he also declines early

What if Sweden beats Mexico 1 - 0?

Both will have 3 - 2 (+1) goal difference and 3 goals scored.

and what if Sweden beats Mexico 1 - 0 and Germany beats South Korea 1 - 0.

All 3 teams will have same points, goal difference, goals scored and goals conceded.. :chan:

Fucking idiot. 3-way scissor, paper, rock. Obviously.

Re: Sweden - They play some spectacularly boring football but you can't hate them for that. It's smart and plays to their strengths. Also, Berg is a fucking bum. Absolute crap player.

 

[crzdcolombian]

I feel pks should count less in head to head goals.

This WC they are giving pks out like its halloween

 

[wera]

Football is a simple game, 22 men chase the ball for 82 minutes and the Germans get a player sent off so 21 men chase the ball for 13 minutes and at the end the Germans somehow fucking win.

 

[Sokrates]

I pray to god that the germans go home today, fucking Löw - most overrated coach on earth.

 

[Native]

Damn… Who would've thought that VAR would make FIFA/this tournament look more crooked than ever...

Does anyone actually think Low is a good manager? I'm yet to meet anyone who does. Among the idiots who coach NTs he's probably one of the slightly better ones, but that's not saying much.

 

[Kev9Inter]

Really unimpressed with Timo Werner.

Really unimpressed with Timo Werner.

He's been dreadful.

 

[Kev9Inter]

What a miss from Goretzka

 

[Jnr]

Sweden 2-0!!!

How can Germany qualify now?

WELL DESERVED
