1 Brazil
2 France
3 England
4 Spain
5 Portugal
Sleeper - Japan
everyone else

I wouldn't write off Germany to be honest. They were probably not on the levels of the top 5 but they were really unlucky against Japan. If they click, they can pile up goals

Look at the cumulative xG against Japan

in that time, they've not beaten any of the fellow big boys. Lost every time they've come across one. This year might be different, but honestly in all the past world cups of late they'd been just OK to garbage, considering the talents in the squad.

Even 2014 when they got to the semis, they looked shaky numerous times (Croatia, Colombia, Chile,, Mexico) before the Germany game.


nonsense.


But such are the expectations after winning 5 titles, I guess. :mjlol:

Brazil 2 - 0 Serbia

Орлови/Оrlovi (The Eagles) thought they could prey on the Canarinho (Little Canary) but the Canarinho (Little Canary)was way too quick and agile. Орлови/Оrlovi flies away with its eyes pecked out.
Breh reasons like he is literally on acid.

So every team has played their first match in World Cup.

The most impressive teams (so far):
England
France
Spain
Brazil

But it's still early days and who knows? Maybe Cameroon and Costa Rica could win their next 2 games?

I was talking shyt about Brazil in the first half because overreacting on the Coli is what we do :pachaha:

But if we grade the teams on a curve, wouldn’t we argue Brazil looked the best given the relative competition?

Or what I’d say is 2nd half Brazil looked monstrous
