am i seeing correctly

did i miss one of the best upsets yet

WHYYYY

Colombia played like shit.

Japan did their best which isn't much but is enough to beat a team who is playing like shit.

Colombia used their hand to stop a goal that was probably doing to be defended anyway. Got a penalty and a red card for the trouble.

1,50m Japanese player scoring a head goal over Colombia's barrier.

All three goals were on dead ball plays because neither team was competent enough to score otherwise.

You didn't miss much tbh.

Yikes that all sounds pretty bad. Red card 3 minutes in is pretty deserving of shame.

Welp. God damn these upsets. Nice job Japan.

Russia 2-0 Egypt
Poland 0-1 Senegal
ColoJAAAAMMMEEEEEEESSSmbia 4-0 Japan

Syndicator to win it all: Isn't this saying that someone else's predictions will be more accurate than mine... so I guess I can pick someone else to make up for the points if I do badly on my own picks? I guess? hmmm i'll go with wolbre.

You can pick yourself if you like.

Yeah I thought about it, would make some sense but it also works as a fallback if I end up being very wrong lol

and sloon yeah I like to try to get a couple unconventional picks in cause it's fun to root for upsets but still play it reasonably safe

Golden Ball: Neymar

Golden Glove: Muslera

I mean, fuck, the Dutchies didn't qualify? It's a different world these days, man...

I haven't followed football much at all since the last WC so I probably have outdated perspectives on who's good and stuff lol. I'll have to do some research on who's still playing that I know of and who the new hot names are
