FIFA World Cup 2014

Imagine if all Americans rooted for the US vs the country they left to "live the American dream" or the county there family came from.

There'd be no room in the stadia for opposition fans

I plan to have both playing at the same time

Hope you stocked up on bananas.

Wimbledon started today I think, saw Murray on there. Don't think he'll do it again this year though.

the website for the spanish channel Univision will play the games online for free I think. Or at least they will play one on tv and one online.

It's been a long slow road for the US when it comes to local interest, but it's on the up - especially with you saying that local games are well attended. I thought '94 would've had more of an impact locally than it appears to have had from an outsider's point of view. I really hope that the ugliness surrounding Qatar's bid will see Qatar stripped of their right to host in '22 and the tournament awarded to the US instead.

It has been but I do really think we're making strides where the popularity will be in the same zip code as the other pro sports. People outside the US just have to realize the other sports have had a longer time building the popularity that they have. Yeah, it's a ***** to get tickets to games and most of them you've gotta get standing room only, which I won't do because me knees would kill me. That would be awesomeness! No offense to Qatar but if FIFA wants to see things continue to grow that would help. If KC was selected to host some of the games I'd make sure to go.

winning would have a huge impact, sadly now it could go the other way depending how things go. If we don't move on and Ghana does I think it will be a huge setback in the US. While some will totally understand the tie breaking here but many will just go back to the stupid game mentality when they learn we don't go on based on # goals for and against before head to head ever comes into play.

I don't know. I guess if we come out feeling robbed then it could do some damage to how some American view soccer. The rules I think are the biggest thing holding lots of people back in the US because they don't take the time to learn them.

Spain 1-up. Australia have got nothing up front, I can't see them getting on the board.

C'mon you Oranges

The greatest team never to win the world cup.

Possibly Brazil 82' might want that distinction?

The first half of Holland Vs Chile was scrappy, Holland don't look quite the same without the combination of Robben and RVP in attack and Chile players seem to go down way too easily once they're around the Dutch penalty area.

You'll see every goal but neither game

They are both qualified, it's expected.

The other game is pretty sloppy. Spain aren't looking great and Australia are looking terrible. There'll be a couple more goals I'd guess, both Spain's.

2-0 Spain, easy as you like.

 

[shells075]

1-0 Oranges

It's hard being up at 3:30am watching bad football.

..aaand another to Spain.

 

[Lejuan]

Into extra time. It's going to be hard for Australia to get back from here.

Well done Netherlands 2-0
