Latin America is Central America, Mexico and South America all in one nice package. 

Sometimes the Guyana, Suriname and other Dutch/English settled islands are not included.

Japan looks good.  It would be nice if we had an American who could teach large groups of kids at a very early age how to play soccer.  That could help our long term prospects.

That wouldn't be possible, though.  

[Goo Punch 4275]

Colombia has been playing with so much urgency; props for their efforts.

[AUS-97HORN 11895]

now they give 5 mins of extra time..... 

 

japan going into the mother of all stalls

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

5 minutes of extra time. I guess that's a carry over from the first half?

[SpiralOut 1867]

Five extra minutes, wow.

Also, got to hand it to the Colombians.  They're not giving up.  Still setting up chances.

Correct, sometimes. They tend to be lumped in with the Caribbean. hehe, and the Cubans and Dominicans get left out. No one counts the Haitians.

Things that make me surly: The throw-in rules are never enforced.

I've always been it being more of a Central American term. Probably a not fully correct assessment.

If they are in the Americas and their language derives from Latin then they are Latin American. 

[Hagbard Celine 11025]

huge win for nippon

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

Tentacle porn for ERRRRYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a fun game.

Colombia down a guy from like the 3rd minute in and they kept it interesting.

I don’t think it was a corner. I think it was a throw in. 

[Bone3421 716]

The colombia games will be fun to watch
They will be playing for their lives

gotta be honest, the Columbians didnt seem like they were in a hurry there.  Maybe if the closest guy to the corner sprinted to take a shot the ref might have allowed it, but they were lollygagging getting to the corner....  

[PittsburghTiger 6253]

Nice job by Japan. They are an entertaining team.

Literally. 

[JNip 132]

Huge win for Japan but I still don't think that they make it to the next round. Gonna be a fun group to follow. 

[Bone3421 716]

Literally. 

To soon?

Has it only been that one time from 94 cup or others?

You guys do realize that Colombia really isn't dangerous anymore - right?

Hmm...maybe not.

Peñaranda too. But not because of football.

Editorial note: If you've never watched ESPN's Two Escobars, you've missed out.

[Hagbard Celine 11025]

nippon's prior world cup wins (excluding 2002 on their own soil) were in South Africa over Cameroon and Denmark.  that's it before today.

this is a bit of a breakthrough for them as Colombia, even down a man and with no James until late, is still a step up.

this group already figured to be wide open, now it's total chaos.

We need Senegal to snatch a point (or three) against Poland for TOTAL CHAOS!!!

The 2 escobars was a good one

I really hope Colombia can get their shit together and advance.  I know he hasn't been the quite the same since his knee, but old Falcao was a pretty fun to watch and he completely missed out on their run in Brazil.

[Bone3421 716]

I got poland winning...i already got enough stuff going wrong for my group predictions

Hoping salah scores a few today and egypt beat russia

[Bone3421 716]

I think colombia will be fine..played down a man all game and still was close to getting a draw

[JNip 132]

Carlos Sanchez doesn't stick his hand out and Colombia at least ties this one. I didn't see much from Japan, they were simply lucky. #notimpressed

User name confuses me.

jesus.... the Poland kit is going to cause me to have a seizure.   its fucking with my TV's HD receptors for sure.

[WBT 20783]

Colombia

Colombian

[Longboard Horn 41087]

Poland vs Senegal should be entertaining.

Also, I’m pulling for Egypt over Russia. They’ve never won a World Cup match and are due for one. Plus, imagine how pissed Putin would be lol

[PittsburghTiger 6253]

What station is the Poland game?

I’ve always wondered - why are there strict throw in rules anyway? Why not just let a player throw the ball in however he wants? One handed, two handed, underhand, overhead, who gives a shit,

He was limping during the game Sunday.

This WC's Neymar is last WC's Ronaldo.
