Random trivia: guess who was the winner of the german football league 1940/41? And yes, of course we played football during the war.

Answer:

Rapid Vienna - I've been using that factoid to trip up friends for years now :wink:
That's an interesting fact indeed 8O

Now, I know why ydays matches were played simultaneously.

Thank you teacher Gonzo!! :thumbup:

North Korea was in the 2010 World Cup. Didn't do so hot though...

Also, I'm so happy for Mexico. They really turned the team around in the past year. They nearly didn't qualify! I'm rooting hard for them in the RO16 against The Netherlands. GOOO CONCACAF!!!!

Also, Uruguay vs Italy today should be an intense match up as well... Uruguay has, and always will be, one of my favorite teams. GOOO URUGUAY!!!

Good matches with a very few exceptions. Watching this full Italy vs Uruguay game though the ESPN commentators are absolutely horrid. I don't understand Suarez though lol and how he's still playing

Indeed.
I am rooting for the Netherlands though but definitely see how much Mexico has improved and brought some game.

Yaaaaaay!!! :p

Also, just seeing Italy vs Uruguay, I'm disgusted by Suarez. So much for respect from him. Hope he gets kicked out of the tournament.

Suarez gets a lot of hate. He's a bit of an idiot, but he's an amazing player. I love the bastard.

Also, YAY URUGUAY! So many European countries getting knocked out! Didn't expect this at all. I'm glad that the other countries are dominating for once.

I hope Mexico beats The Netherlands in the RO16. *fingers crossed*

Celebrations seconds after Messi's 2nd goal against Nigeria in Cordoba, Argentina.
Spoiler: show
It might seem kinda edited, but ppl living there confirm that in important matches it's always like that.

Oh, man.. USA goes through to the RO16!!! SO EXCITED!

Korea didn't make it, but that was expected so I'm not as heart broken. USA wasn't supposed to make it out of that group, but here we are!

I'm confident about our game with Belgium and I feel like we could get up to the quarter finals. Here's to hoping!!!

First game of the Round of 16 begins! Who's excited???

Are you a neutral? Or do you have a team you're rooting for?

Brasil is already ahead by 1... Can Chile catch up?
