I'm not watching but will tune in if this turns to be PK shootout. recent Germany PK shootout=heart attack inducing, LMAO but other than that its fun to watch.
2nd worst, my beloved Swiss are worst ever 2006 WC, they play 4 matches concede 0 goals and then PK shootout in R16 and 3/3 misses. both are WC records for a NT, going out of WC conceding 0 and missing every PK in shootout, LMAO.
given their size and height, is it surpising that they lack power in their PKs. Just looking at the players coming to take PK I had a feeling they would flop. this is a good example of why I miss Germany 90s-00s players. Current generation all around are shit at PKs and not very convincing. Even Crotia PKs weren't that great.
Korea and Morocoo are now only non-Europe/South America teams left. continues to show how these are the 2 main continents. Rest underperform or bomb every WC.
So Argentina vs Dutch England vs France Croatia vs Brazil looks like 3/4 if we get Portugal vs Spain that's 4 interesting match ups. Although I'm team Morocco tbh.
I hope tomorrow Morocco honour the memory of Abd el-Krim and kick those fvcking Spaniards out of the World Cup.
Does anyone think these round of 16 games overall haven't been fun to watch? probably one of the worst round of 16 games in a while.. no thrills or nervy games most have been over by halftime
its why some have us have been right to call this worst WC in quality since 2002. even most GS=dull worthy.
Brazil goal celebrations are v cringe. But all the goals have been a joy to watch. Simply superb football.
