If you saw literally all my other posts on the USMNT you'd know I was being facetious.

Have to live stream BBC for this match. I can't stand ESPN coverage of the USA games.

Not trusting the guy who gives Brazil a 40% chance of winning it all.

Anyone who roots for Germany is a terrible, yes.

And I'm rooting for Costa Rica obviously, though Colombia is my second favorite.

Might not have anyone to root for in the semis. Sad

Horrific referee. A comeback by the good guys certainly in the cards for the second half though.

An update for those interested:



You can argue the sample size is still too small, but 538's probabilities have been very good so far.

Go away.

It's sad how much this World Cup went downhill after the group stages.

Does Phil consider every non-Italian national side in Europe to be "disgusting"?

Football is dead.

Traditional powers in the Semis. Beautiful.

You are a bad person.

Obviously the ideal is a Germany-Argentina final. The other two dirty bastard teams must not be allowed a chance at the trophy.

A good omen for the SA teams:

In WC history, no European team has ever won against a South American team on South American soil.

Netherlands-Chile? Switzerland-Ecuador?

There's always one half of the knockout rounds bracket that is weaker than the other. Even yesterday's Brazil could have defeated these two pathetic excuses for football teams. Argentina will really need to step it up (or Germany will need to choke, which is more likely).

At least the preferable teams in both semifinal matches won. I don't mind who wins the final now--I just want a good show.

Congrats to Germany, clearly the most deserving team, and respect to Argentina as well (especially for slaughtering the orange bastards Smiley).
