    Again, it's another game lacking quality when it's needed most. Poor touches at key times in key areas.

    Both teams just didn't test the keeper enough.

    "Croatia HELD BY Morocco"....

    Nah.....Morocco have big name Pl. players and had for some time. This isn't their first Rodeo.

    Time to stop infantilizing these places.

    You need to start winning these games if you want to be taken seriously..

    The Netherlands ended up scoring two late goals but even they struggled big time. One of those where you're shouting at the television saying "just shoot would you!!" Taking too many touches. It was like they had watched Raheem Sterling highlights.

    Nice matchup of the Axis Powers of World War 2. Germany should easily beat Japan 3-0

    I wouldn't be shocked if Japan go ahead during the game and get something from this. They should cause Germany problems.

    If Japan show some intent to want to win, this might be a completely different game.

    Japan is still recovering from the bomb, the Hiroshima bomb.

    I guess 75% possession doesn't get you more than a 1-0 lead. Germany shit the bed in the 2nd half.

    2-0. Costa Rica keeper should be doing much better with that.

    Spain could win this by 7 or 8.

    6-0. I think we can now safely say Spain have the game in the bag.

    Costa Rica didn't have a single shot in the entire match. Pathetic.

    Can't even say how good Spain were because Costa Rica were that shit. Didn't go for it at all and didn't put Spain under any pressure whatsoever. Embarrassing.

    Hopefully this teaches FIFA that expanding the World Cup field would be a waste of time.

    Hard to rate Spain because Costa Rica are just that bad. There was no quality on that team. Did they even have a shot on goal?

    The 2008-2012 Spain team probably scores 15 against Costa Rica.
