I just think the teams are not as strong as they were in the past and this World Cup is wide open.

Belgium's result was surprising and I didn't see them losing to Morocco. The African countries are showing determination and I hope to see them spring surprises in the worldcup

The world cup this year is entertaining, you can't guess which team is going to outclass the other. I can't believe De Brunye was right about Belgium, and I am now convinced Canada deserves to win that match when both countries faced last week. We might still be in for a shock this week as the final group stage matches approach this week.

<p>Painful. As soon as he opened his mouth, I knew we (Canada) were going to get destroyed. &nbsp;You are right, outside of Davies, our squad just isn't up to it…Hopefully it's a better showing next world cup.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>!CTP</p>

Ahah, nice picture of the Belgium team, they deserve it a little 🤣
Yeah, that's the craziest world cup of all times I think, we are going from surprise to surprises.  
For me Switzerland will pass but we'll see.

No one seems to be criticising KDB for what he said. As you said it demoralised the players. He should have waited for them to lose before talking crap about his team. 

English pundits are bunch of jokers to me. They always seem to undermine a team which doesn’t come from England as they seem to forget about the problems they have and only talk about others. 

Am glad Croatia showed their class even though I was not rooting for them to win😂. I was happy Davies got his goal but then I didn’t want to get knocked out so I was wishing they could do it. 

Cameron and Serbia taught me a big lesson. At 2-1 I thought it was over and I left only to come back at 3-3. What’s a game😂

How do you feel about VAR playing such a crucial role in things?  I'm feeling as though it has improved play even though much more added time is happening as a result.
