diamond_ace 3,112 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I was hoping France would miss, for karma's sake after the Henry handball last time (I still wear an Ireland track jacket every time France plays, and I'm not even an Ireland fan). Oh well, clearly the better side won, can't just fluke into 3-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spangle 49 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Gutted for Burkina-Faso. Almost made it to their first World Cup today, but lost on away goals to Algeria. Horrible way to go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I was rooting for them. The amount of money they would receive just simply for going would've been huge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Victor 10,937 Posted November 20, 2013 Author Admin Share Posted November 20, 2013 Iceland also missed out on being the smallest ever country (population wise) to make it. Overall, few of my preferred results took place. Still, hyped. Groups picked on December 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No to a country that has no business being their. If I remember correctly USA plays up to competition greater and down to competition lesser than them.

If I remember correctly USA plays up to competition greater and down to competition lesser than them.Last time they lost to Ghana who were a penalty miss away from the semi-final (granted the draw and results guaranteed a semi-final place for one of South Korea, Ghana, USA, and Uruguay). So either there's a lot of competition that USA can't compete with (like 20 teams)... actually that sounds about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't compete with: Germany Spain Brazil Argentina Portugal Italy Belgium Netherlands Favored to lose to, but could feasibly pull a result: Russia England Uruguay Chile Ghana Ivory Coast Cameroon France Colombia Denmark Can beat the other teams.

Guess what, even a great goalie can't stop the trouble headed towards him when Spain/Germany/Netherlands/Belgium/Argentina/Uruguay and others start shooting.

He bolded "goalie" and "field" because they're not the "proper" terms keeper and pitch. It's funnier at home because there's more of a story that goes with it.

Spangle 49 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Ya, I'm part Costa Rican. I'm in shambles at the moment. Both of the teams I wanted to do well just go fucked over completely. Looking at Groups E, F, and H pisses me off at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Spangle how is group B the strongest? Netherlands and Spain battle it out for ½ and the other two teams die off. Australia will be the worst in the tourney and Chile are a one-man show. Also Victor, Bosnia could go far but unfortunately Argentina and Nigeria are there. Nigeria is no slouch.

They're the 12th ranked team and played against Spain last time and IIRC, gave them a pretty good run. Ultimately, I think Spain/Netherlands/Chile is stronger than Germany/Ghana/Portugal/USA. But, I could see it the other way around as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
