2014 FIFA World Cup (the Teams and the Groups (of Death))

I wouldn't be too sure about Mexico. Not that I don't want them to win, but Mexico are stepping into Brazil's turf, and I'm afraid it won't be frosting on the cake for the Mexican team. No offense. :P

 

To be fair the lead-up to Mexico's qualification to the World Cup was almost a disaster. They finished fourth behind the US, Costa Rica, and Honduras, and very well could've fell behind Panama in the standings. They can probably also thank FIFA for being paired with New Zealand for the final qualifier games they had to play.

 

So yeah, you have a point. Though, I will bring up the Summer Olympics again as the previous tournament was also held in Brazil, and Mexico beat them on their home soil. Again, yes, I know that they're two different teams, but again the principle is there. Mexico can do it; especially as Brazil were not that convincing against Croatia.

 

Speaking of CONCACAF as a whole, Honduras aside, it hasn't been a bad showing at all!

A draw, it was a nice game. Ochoa, was completely amazing that match. He made some incredible saves.

 

I'm happy to see someone put Brazil to the sword a bit; though I wish they could've scored one. Ah well, onto Russia & South Korea!

That was some serious goal-keeping by Mexico. Really saved the match for them. Who would have thought a draw would have been so exciting?

Most disappointing game of matches so far. Ochoa was excellent.

Fun fact:

Ochoa has 6 fingers on his right hand, therefore he is not allowed to play in England because it "gives him an unfair advantage". He almost signed for Fulham a couple years back before the move was blocked.

he actually doesn't, it was a photoshoped image that is recirculated.

Ochoa was incredible, AKinfeev for Russia on the other hand was a complete liability. His handling was shocking!

I haven't been able to watch the match itself, but going by what others have said Chile has been playing quite the game. They could likely give any other team a lot of trouble.

England vs Uruguay tomorrow. I'd like to see England win, but it doesn't matter that much.

How about you guys.

I don't exactly have high hopes for this game, hopefully the team (England) will surprise us in a positive way for a change!
