The Football (Soccer) Thread - Season 2017/2018

I’m liking the USA’s chances of making it out this time. Hopefully we don’t choke!

South Africa is out first round no matter what group they’re in. Their team is garbage.

This is the key part.

Most of you already know the groups. No real group of death this tourney. Brasil, Ivory Coast, Portugal should be decent. Also Australia might have a chance but “should” be out classed by both Serbia and Germany.

I’ll cheer for the Aussies to get through that group just because I like Scott MacDonald, and don’t really care about the others.

mexico is opening the World cup

get hype

I think Groups B E G are the toughest

Group E should be some very interesting matches.
Japan got heart, Cameroon never get tired, Denmark & their worldcup tradition, Netherlands is Netherlands.

Group B? Depends on Nigeria want to show up or not.

Group B should be Argentina and Nigeria. E should be Netherlands and Cameroon, but that is a tough group. Netherlands is by far top of the class in that group.

yeah they can fight for 2nd place, my Argies boys will take 1st place

Wow. USA has no other option but to get out of the group stage this time. They may never get another draw like this.

Well with USA’s track record i wouldn’t be surprised to see slovenia in the next round

Thank jeebus for the search function!

World Cup 2010 baybayeee get hype. Mexico all the way!

Also my favorite team evar(incidentally the best one too :3) is 7-0-0 right now in the Mexican League. :bgrin:

I fucking hate Maradona. I predict we won’t even make it past first round. We struggled to get a win from Jamaica and they weren’t even using their main players for fucks sake.

BUMP!!! for champions leauge.

My gunners spank Porto after the bullshit goal given to Porto at the end of the last game.

Two interesting matches today, Manchester v AC Milan and Real Madrid v Lyon. Lyon has a 1-0 lead on aggregate. As long as they lose by only 1 they will go throw on away goals(a 1-0 loss will go to penalty shots). Very interesting, always liked Lyon even though they usually are outclassed in the Champions League by the Big clubs.

Olympique Lyonnais :clap: :clap: :clap::clap: :clap:

Gunners were superb last night, great team work and even better display of individual skill!

Buu Lyon won q_q

LOL Holy shit. Check this out.

Sulley Muntari (Inter Milan) comes into the game in the 79th minute. 80 seconds later, he’s got a double-yellow. :lol:

MLS season has begun.

Yay Sounders! MLS cup is ours!

Nobody can stop the Two Freddies!

Fuck the MLS Cup, we’ll be winning the real championship for the third year in a row.

The heck? ROFL! First one is common business, 2nd one wtf lol.
