World Cup Group F contains current World Champions Germany who are looking for a 5th title. Mexico, who have a talented team looking to make a deep run, Sweden without its talisman Zlatan and the Korean Republic.

I think Germany and Mexico handle this group, but both Sweden and Korea could create some upsets.

Group F Standings:
--------------------------Pld---W---D---L---GD----Pts
Mexico------------------1----1---0---0___+1----3
Sweden-----------------1----1---0---0___+1----3
Korea Republic-------1----0---0---1___-1----0
Germany---------------1----0---0---1___-1----0

*I will make the threads for Group G and H when those games come around on Monday.

Normally, I would never root for Germany. But today they play Mexico, so unfortunately I have no choice. I think today will be a massacre. Prediction: 3-1 Germany

Or a tie...a tie would be better

Every little run down deep has 6 green shirted arms going in the air making the universal sign for "I'm beat bail me out"

Good lord. The ref just pushed Kroos backwards with 2 hands to the chest. What is he thinking?
LeonardSkinner

Foolish by Kroos. But he wasn't wrong wrong. That might be the first time I've seen a referee physically push a player away.

Why didn't Chicharrito freaking attempt on goal there?
LeonardSkinner

I'm surprised Little Pee didn't eat grass on that. Prime diving opportunity.
LeonardSkinner
How long do you want to ignore this user?
That seemed like it could've been a yellow. Tactical foul on a counter opportunity, and then kicking the ball away.

I actually thought that he might have drawn a PK if he had gone down. He was fouled.
LeonardSkinner

Germany just doesn't seem crisp. Especially on that last horrible giveaway.

Flop. He didn't get touched and was already going into the dive anticipating contact.

The ref has his hands full. Lots of full speed play and contact.

Seems pretty one sided thus far

Not sold on the ref yet.

Extra ball on the pitch right by the goal on the free run there. Little league stuff.
LeonardSkinner

Germany's defense looks a little out of sorts. The way they're playing in front of Neuer is at times reminiscent of how the USMNT would play in front of Howard.

There's open dissent by both teams on every call.

I feel like I caught a vibe of "I'm not going to be intimidated by these guys" from the ref, but that hasn't worked out, and there's almost zero respect between them.

Yep.

That should have been 1-0 Mexico. And there it is anyway.

I'm quoting myself. Die Mannschaft needs to get their **** in gear.

He needs to start handing out cards on both teams. Now.

Too late, I think. He's toast, and has to be hoping he makes it to halftime with no further issues.

We're putting in the same amount of effort that the German players are.

Germans screwing around in the box instead of putting shots on goal and getting absolutely punished on the counter.

Pathetic defending from the champs.
