    I get a kick how they play on as a players lies on the field seemingly injured. Imagine that happening in the NFL.

    Seems the excitement level is ramped up for round of 32. Canada and RSA are playing hard and seem to be equals.

    I'm surprised they don't break out in fist fights on them corner kicks. They push each other hard.

    If you only follow soccer every 4 years like me, now is the time to start watching. That was a great first half.

    We’re about to see if Germany is for real.
    Down 1-0 at half.

    Is this like Brazil earlier?

    Germany looked dominate but Paraguay up 1-0. Was a great header for goal. Pulling for Paraguay in this one but wouldn't put money on it. I expect Germany will put a ton of pressure on them. Should be a lot of attacking.

    Germany gets a great header goal and ties it at 1-1. IMO Germany will win this game. To much for Paraguay.

    Wow! I thought it was a good goal in first OT for Germany but it was called back. They said goalie was interfered with. On to second 15 minute OT.

    Germany disallowed goal was SOFT...so dumb. And I hate PKs to determine the winner...sucks for both Germany and Netherlands but such is life.

    I’ll go outside right now and fire the ball at the net and not miss, as long as there’s no goalie.
    Hahahahahahaha!

    Another good game with Norway coming out ahead. They really embrace their Viking heritage.

    No way in hell Sweden beats France. I hope it stays close but I doubt it.

    France scores to go up 1-0. Score could be a lot worse for Sweden. Sweden defense is nothing like Paraguay's was yesterday.

    Steelers should take a lesson from the soccer teams. When they have a lead they keep trying to pour it on

    ND/BRD both hold a soft spot in my heart
    1978/1982 runner ups
    Good friends from both countries at that time I first moved there.

    France goes up 2-0. Boring game unless you like seeing France totally dominating the Swedes.

    Looking forward to tonight's game. I've been there many times so I'm pulling for Mexico. They play Ecuador at 9:00 this evening. I'll be nodding on the couch I'm sure.
