FIFA 2014 World Cup all-purpose thread

[Alsacs]

Man can they just give Argentina their medals so they can leave the pitch. They are motionless. I gotta say I love the FIFA music they use walking out to matches and in this postage.

Champions Tournament in USA is going to be awesome. USA @ Czech Republic September 3rd.

Sepp Blatter is getting the Gary Bettman treatment LOL

I feel for Messi...

No help

 

[Alsacs]

Messi getting golden ball was a joke but his reaction was sad he just didn't care.

 

[mountaincuse]

What an awkward trophy presentation.

Vladmir Putin next to Blatter so many one liners, so little time. I wish I could be in that box.

After the goal, the box filled with dictators + Blatter was my favorite TV shot of the entire final.

ImperialOrange - congrats to your team on the win. They were the best side in the World Cup.

1.) Best team won the whole thing
2.) Mascherano was unbelievable.
3.) Schurrle was all over the ball night. Great to see him set up the goal.
4.) Goethe looks like one of Harrison Ford's neighbors from "Witness"
5.) Best I can tell, there are six cameras in a world cup game. Five take shots of the field. One looks for hot women in the stands. Interesting to see if this can be duplicated in the US now.
6.) Agreed Messi had no help. They traded support for sublime defense.
7.) Germany could very easily repeat.

I fixed it for you but that shot was funny.

I love how the cameramen always find the hot women from each country. The Argentinian hot blondes depressed after the goal were great shots.

 

[Alsacs]

IMO the only team that can beat Germany at EURO 2016 will be France and that is because the competition is in France.

CANADA OR UKRAINE will win 2018 world cup!

Does every Girl in Argentina dye there hair blonde or is it just me?

Their were atleast 3 dyed blondes but their were all hot and in shock.

It was awesome discussing the world cup with you guys! My family (other than the ones still in Ukraine) knows dick all about Soccer so it was nice talking about the matches and stuff with you. Thanks!

 

[cmr27]

Forget to add that Neuer reminded me of the discussion about whether NBA guys could play high-level soccer. If it were possible, it would probably look a lot like what we saw from Neuer tonight. He was so quick to the ball and covered so much ground in the box. Great job all around.

Likewise. This has been a great thread. I've really enjoyed it. I look forward to picking it up when the big leagues start ramping it up again. What to do with my sports viewing time now?

Looks like the ABC affiliate in the Souther Tier made a boo-boo during the game, and the viewers ripped them on Twitter.

 

[ImperialOrange]

the team I cheer for for never wins in soccer lol.

Have you ever considered cheering for both Manchester clubs?

That's a classic.

This thread should just roll over as soccer thread as club seasons will be starting in August and their will be a lot of interesting preseason matches in July in the USA.
Bayern Munich is playing the MLS All-Stars. Man U hammered the MLS All-Stars 2 years in a row.

 

[ImperialOrange]

Bastion is pissing me off...

I was getting mad at Argentina for time wasting and then Goetze scored and all the sudden they were fine and the Germans couldnt get on the ground fast enough.

I'd rather see the European teams play straight-up MLS squads. All-Star teams are never coordinated enough to put together a good showing.

What an awful foul called on Higuain there. Are you kidding me? Looney tunes.

I liked It. Manny went shamwow on higuan, higuan got up and whined about it then dropped and started rolling around again.
