And the second set of games are on Sunday. Will cut you some slack, been providing great information during the tournament. 

Picks other than US. 

France, England, Aussies cuz why the hell not.

I think Australia is the only country in the world that has a better competitive culture than the US. 

I expect them to lose but they are something else.

I read an article last night about how this guy tracked Messi’s movement without the ball and his numbers were this incredible outlier because he rarely runs, if he does it’s supposedly aimlessly but he can turn it on like none other. Was pretty funny watching some videos. But after watching he beginning of this game, he rarely tracks back and unless he can shoot he can’t even trot.  (If this is some big known thing-obviously not a gigantic soccer fan) I’m not saying he’s not an amazing player, the article didn’t either, just have to wonder how much it’s saving, how about disinterest. I found it interesting

Messi is the greatest player to ever touch a football pitch and for anyone with a brain it's inarguable.  

What you're seeing is him being past his athletic prime. He chooses his spots.

That said - that's a great question and I repped you for it.

Lol Messi puts those in corners. Pulicic puts them right at the keeper. 

Dude shut the fuck up with that bullshit. The only reason you watched the US today was because Pulisic is on the team.

Boo. I want the Socceroos to advance.

Give us some new blood.

The only recent new blood was Spain. The list of winners is small.

France's kit is clean. Polish hotties in the stands. Nice way to start a Sunday. 

I hate how so many teams have shied away from the three color uniforms by fucking around with the short/sock color.  France should be blue/white/red.  Brazil should be yellow/blue/white.  Mexico should be green/white/red.

Poland with a present on this free kick and Tchouameni with an unlucky card.

Wow.  Much better from Poland.  No idea how two of those stayed out.

France Poland is a fun game! France is attacking hard. Poland holding their lines.

Agreed. It is a pretty fun game. Poland sure has had their chances in the first half.
