there is a 0 percent chance Japan beats Belgium but go ahead i guess

england lose with class

can’t understand all these play to always win statements. it’s a lot easier to walk into the semis and get lucky once or twice vs being the underdog in every single round. strategy wins trophies.

Yes. Chickens always win championships

Who’s her third place pick?

You know there are loads of examples of athletes using dirty tactics to gain success who then win, don't you?

Also none of us have said England will now win the World Cup.

or teams tanking in american sports in order to secure higher draft picks

pretty common tbh, weird to let your pride get in the way of tactical decision making.

That is the match I'm most nervous about. Belgium didn't want to win either but then again they did score a goal. Japan on the other hand laid down when they knew they clinched a spot despite losing (Happy for Poland though).


Yeah, they're called the New York Yankees.



I could use this as an analogy for more serious things to show why the whole world is screwed up, but I'll take my leave and look for a music thread. Good luck tomorrow (BTW: I actually like England. I just don't like their tactics).

Considering how fresh the squad are, I'd say they proved themselves by qualifying for knockout tbf.

Jesus just realised I missed the semis lol. Uruguay vs Croatia, and Uruguay win.

feel like goof has the wildest bracket but he tends to be right so maybe i should swap my picks
