I'll throw those threads up in a couple hours then, just watching the Ireland-France friendly right now. I was surprised to see no Champions League Final threads to be honest.
By that time the World Cup will be up to 40 teams, so all the hosts getting a spot isn?t absurd. It would be interesting to see what happens to the rest of the concacaf teams should that be the case.
Huge boost for Peru with star player being reinstated for the tournament after being suspended on doping charges. Peru, without him looks good in warm ups, besting 3 European team recently, including a full strength Croatia.

Leroy Sane cut from German squad
Your joke doesn't work with the accent on his name. San?.
Overall a very entertaining World Cup so far with quite a few interesting results and scenarios playing out at this point.
I'm rooting for Portugal. I hope they win.
It?s been an extremely entertaining World Cup so far. I?ve managed to watch every game in it?s entirety so far (except for yesterday?s 3 matches where I caught extended highlights). It?s been the World Cup of penalties so far though. What?s been disappointing me is the lack of action/activity the World Cup has generated in the forums. I created a discussion thread for each group hoping that we?d have some dialogue after every game but it seems like fellow Dobberites aren?t all that interested in the greatest sporting event in the world. Time for me to get up, stretch and walk around as I wait for the next match to kick off.
Probably a combination of not too many footy fans and the forums themselves having their slower period in the hockey offseason. After this, probably one general sawker thread for any sawker talk at all might do.
Today’s games should be good. Particularly France-Peru and Argentina-Croatia later on.
