Sorry to be positive on this thread but the corners by the left footer Andersson are brilliant. 3 assists and counting in this match. The Italians need taller defenders and keeper. Always play to your strengths and Sweden do.
Colombia's national anthem is rather jolly isn't it? Wonder if the respective approaches to singing will be borne out on the pitch. Suspect Germany will do Germany and score a handful
I watched the last 30 minutes (with AT) and that was a great climax. The WC needed that and could well alter the route of the last 16 and what we expected.
Watched the 2nd half of the Germany v Colombia game. Wow! Great technique for both the Colombia goals and very entertaining to watch, compared to the pathetic game between NZ and Switzerland.
Two great goals from Colombia and good to see skill after the poor quality of the earlier game. Excellent play by Germany for their goal and skill on winning the penalty.
@Leuth please watch and try to say positive things when they happen to counter balance the poor shite that you like to share.
As Hayes has just said many of the Colombian women play in Spain.
Also agree Spain and Japan are the best so far with skill and movement.
Sad to see the Philippines go out thanks to a suicidal decision by the coach to go 442.
Totally the wrong tactics.
Their fans were amazing and still made lots of noise. The atmosphere at these World Cup games has been pretty awful in general. I can understand it in NZ as they only have one football team so fans don't know how to get behind a team. However the England game in Sydney, I expected more.., but it was embarrassingly quiet.
I went to England games in the Euro's and the support was good but it's different from the men's game as you have some young girls and women watching who have only come for the Mexican wave !
Chatted to other women that not only played but were very technical about the way they saw football.
Very family orientated yet when Stanway's hit the winning goal in Q.final the noise was loud but not behind me and my son as there were 12 señoritas.

I've said some nice things here and there!
I seem to have gotten the worst of it with the games I've watched. Feels like most of the good games are ones I've missed. That first Colombia goal was great

More than USA v Holland.
Seem the way to go in this World Cup
Norway decided to play as a team instead of individuals and no surprise they hit 6.
New Zealand scored a cracking goal in their first game with the cross on the deck and a good finish. Since then they have been clueless.
Even if they lose this game the Germans should end on 6 points with South Korea their last game.
Colombia now favourites to win the group and likely means a France v Germany match up in the last 16.
The WC needed that and could well alter the route of the last 16 and what we expected.
