Oh the joy of Argentina getting the boot! Followed by Portugal. Mexico getting the heave-ho tomorrow would make my weekend.

With France's victory over Argentina, my wish for the WC final is now France vs. England. Two classic countries with a real rivalry stretching back hundreds of years.

As for Brazil vs. Mexico...what number will be higher? Goals scored or flops by Neymar? Las Vegas should have that bet on the boards. Someone needs to kick Neymar in the balls.

Trouble is, I hate the Mexicans. So I don't want to see them advance. But Neymar's flopping is worse than a European basketball player. If only both teams could lose tomorrow.

Well most of us want Mexico to win.  I think your France vs England final has a huge shot.  I love England to win their side of the bracket. Easily the best team but Spain is my only worry

A  good outcome for England, as Spain is out.  But as far as I am concerned its pure crap.  Spain are the better team, dominated totally, and lose because if incidental contact on a corner on the back of the guys arm.  He did not use his arm or hand intentionally.  Its a joke how they allowed Russia a free goal

Worst team always wins these PK games.  Because the goalie has had far more action during the game for one thing.  And its  a psychological advantage to an inferior team like Russia

Pique had no reason to raise his arm, in doing so he impeded the direction of the ball which was 99% certain of going in the back of the net, whether intentional or a stupid mistake the ball hit his raised arm therefore it is a penalty.

Spain may have been dominant in the attack but Russia were equally dominant in the defence it made for a slightly boring game. Anyway, Russia have progressed just as I thought they would.

Onward, sons of England!!! Crush the Cocaine-heads!

Only two things I know about Columbia...1) Americans went gaga over the guy with the floppy blond hair, Carlos Valderrama, during the 1994 World Cup; and 2) One of their players was murdered after they lost to the U.S. in the 1994 World Cup.

Amen. I am sweating this out now.  I hope England gets one soon.

One of these filthy Columbian's needs to be escorted off via red flag. Thank God the American ref is smart enough not to give in to their pandering.  

You are bang on there, where is the Red Card... My heart is in my mouth, come on England, hold on..  Ah, here comes Vardy..

Phew, F**K me England win a penalty shoot out. Onward we go, Sweden will be tough..

Man, sick over that. i thought we were dead.  Unreal.  Great freakin save by Pickford.  Dumb ass stupid shit letting them tie it with a minute to go.  That goal cost me money.  I had England to win in regulation and extra time.  Fuckers.  But I am happy they won, have them on parlays.  And I want to see them win it all.  Big time.  I say they can beat Sweden.  It was smart coaching putting a ton of second stringers in vs Belgium. If not, instead of having to beat Sweden and likely Croatia, they would have had to beat two out of three of Brazil, Belgium and France.   No fucking thank you. 

How do you pack 70,000 Columbian taco benders into a Russian stadium across the ocean when England had about 1/7 of that in the stands?  Lots of "white lobsters" found on the beach!😀 Ie  a kilo of coke, tickets, both airline and stadium funded by drug lords.  A good  cause I guess?  LOL.  When that taco bender hit the crossbar I think the Lord was smiling down on us.  I mean, whew!!!  When you go down a goal in PK's kiss your ass goodbye in most cases.  Pickford was great.  Denmark to me has the best goalie.  That guy stopped 3 PKs at least, and one in the opening game to advance that was miraculous.  I forget who it was against.  The division Croatia was in.  

GO ENGLAND!!!!!!!!!!   🥅

Have you forgotten who Denmark's Goalie is. He's Leicester's Goalie Kaspar Schmeichel.  He helped Leicester to the Championship title just much as Vardy by keeping the ball out of the net, he made some fantastic saves in that title winning season, saves that have just as much value as Vardy's goals..

Yes and I believe he is the best there is.  Truly.  If England had lost this I would have lost all interest.  Man what a finish.  Now lets kick Sweden's ass
