Germany playing like shit but I wonder how long Mexico will last before breaking down. They've been running full speed on counters pretty much the entire first half. Better hope they get some legs under them at halftime or it could be a blood bath. [Reply]
One thing I've noticed about watching international soccer, premier league, and La Liga is that the equatorial players are the biggest floppers. [Reply]

"Soccer officials" should be brought in to defend the calls/non-calls in the box. The Geman dude clearly dragged-down the Mexican in the box, it was a clear attempt to disrupt a very possible scoring play, no call.
Perhaps the most consistently subjective play.call in sports. [Reply]
Germany deserves to lose this game. Playing so lazy.
I really dont understand how Ozil still makes the national team. Everytime he's out there it's like watching one of the least impactful attacking midfielders. [Reply]

I say this every world cup, but soccer in english is so fucking boring. The commentators have no life. I watched the Mexico game in spanish, i have no fucking idea what they said, but it was so much more exciting. [Reply]
