Oo
The next worldcup will have lots of new faces
The games have been great so far and I've really enjoyed how this sport has brought people together. I was disappointed in Russia losing to Croatia as they have made it this far, being the worst team to qualify and they were hosting the games. It would have been fantastic seeing them win and go to the Semifinals. Sine they've lost, I'm not as interested anymore. I guess I'll route for England.
it has been quite the tournament...so many classic moments...
What a game! So exciting!!
