Of course it's easier to say it after the result. That said don't be so sure that Portugal will win in regular time either Haven't we seen enough upsets already? Anyway my main point was to mention that a player who isn't such a fan of football has reached so far in Bench World Cup Edited December 9, 2022 by Athenayama Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ganzohnesushi 419 Posted December 9, 2022 (edited) For me it was clear that (almost) everyone would set Brazil at no. 1. Guess how I was rooting for Croatia to keep a clean sheet after 90 minutes. And now of all players it was Neymar who scored, for me the most unsympathetic person in football. And yes, Portugal has not won yet. But it would be nice to win this fight with only 3 remaining teams vs. 6. Ganzohnesushi Edited December 9, 2022 by Ganzohnesushi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Athenayama 476 Posted December 9, 2022 @Ganzohnesushi God, I just realized you are Yarimotsu's opponent, my mind was "somewhere else"! I understand all much better now. Well I won't debate about Neymar as I'm a Paris St Germain fan, he has his flaws as qualities as every man. Anyway I have no problem with a Portugal win (or all my Portuguese friends will kill me!). May the best (luckiest?) of you win ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ganzohnesushi 419 Posted December 9, 2022 Woohooo! Brazil is out. Yes, sometimes they can play fantastic, but there is always some arrogant attitude shown by the Brazilian team. That's why I don't like them and thus I have not picked them in my team. Now I'll have a beer. Prost! Ganzohnesushi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ganzohnesushi I was hoping you would set your teams in that order so I could guarantee my chain to continue if Brazil did not lose in 90 minutes. Now if Portugal do not lose in 90 minutes I will need England and Argentina to win for me to be clearly ahead, but I'm not sure who wins if we go 1-1. Penalties, I guess. For the record I'm not exactly a fan of Brazil either, I just thought their team would do well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Athenayama 476 Posted December 9, 2022 Could you imagine a World Cup Final Argentina - Portugal with Leo on one side and CR7 on the other? That would be something historical. Regardless the debates about their age and current performances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing historical, as we had such constellations already in the past, i.e. 1954 Ferenc Puskas/Fritz Walter, in 1974 Franz Beckenbauer/Johann Cruyff and 1990 Lothar Matthäus/Diego Armando Maradona.

Ganzohnesushi 419 Posted December 9, 2022 (edited) How many of these awards were really deserved? Ask Robert Lewandowski or Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
