2014 World Cup: News & Preparation for Other Nations

5x3 is not an embarassing score at all for Flu. From the start they were the "franco atiradores" in this game, having nothing to lose. This score should be raising more questions about Italy's defensive depth than Fluminense's.

Biggest winner of the day is definitely Immobile.

 

Flu were also missing Diego Cavalieri, Fred and Rafael Sóbis.

Goals:

 

To let the score go from 2 x 2 to 2 x 5 as quick as it did was pretty embarrassing.

 

What was the result of the USA/Nigeria match?

 

I predict USA getting second in their group, and then beating Belgium in PK's in round of 16 to get eliminated by Argentina in the quarters. USA always seem to pull miracles off.
