What is the story about?
The group stage and the R32 are over. The Scots have flown home, Balogun’s on a red, and everyone in England is becoming an expert on Aerology.
The R16 technically started already, with Canada and Paraguay falling to Morocco and France respectively. Today, Brazil take on Norway while England face a difficult match at the Azteca against Mexico. Tomorrow, the USA faces Belgium while Portugal play Spain in an Iberiaderby. Who will advance to the quarterfinals?
No matter which nation you support, feel
free to comment along here as the tournament rolls on! The normal match thread rules apply:
- Exercise common sense. We allow profanity, adult humor, and other forms of crudeness within reason, but of course there are lines. Hateful language will not be tolerated. Exceptionally violent language (especially directed at specific people) will not be tolerated. Before you type, ask yourself, “Would I have a reasonable expectation of being thrown out of a bar in an average city if I said something like this?”
- Be respectful. There will definitely be times when everyone is upset and disagreements get heated, and that’s fine, but remember that we’re all rooting for the same team. Keep arguments based on substance and not personal insults.
- No sharing illegal streams. NONE. Zero tolerance.
- No spam. I have no interest in whatever crypto scheme you’re shilling. You will be banned.
