Sakai, their RB who plays for Marseille is a player very underrated. He put Neymar in his pocket in a 2-2 draw vs PSG
Day 19: Brazil vs Mexico and Belgium vs Japan
- Thread starter K2K
- Start date
If they get past Colombia then they are for sure. Big IF though as I'm expecting them to get beat.This WC is trash
England amongst the favorites now
Kompany having a shocker here. Keeps presenting the ball to the Japanese and they don’t get it back for 5 minutes.
Belgium will either score or get a player sent off and meltdown in next 5mins
This is incredible. Belgium being outplayed
If you'd gone into a bookies pre WC qualifying and said you wanted to bet that the QFs would not include any of Italy, Holland, Germany, Argentina, Spain, Portugal or Belgium (fingers crossed), they'd probably have smiled at you as if you were an imbecile and give you some ridiculous odds.
Love this WC.
Love this WC.
Belgium are gone here. Their heads have totally gone
Belgium are shitting it, you can read it in their faces.
Japan absolutely destroying Belgium on the wings.
That and because SouthGOAT.
One of the most enjoyable WCs in recent memoryThis WC is trash

Sour grapes?
You not tried German wine?
It actually is, but forgiveable if you didn’t know. You can thank US domestic policy in the 40s for that.
Bill Parcels (former NFL coach) got in a lot of trouble for having a set of trick plays that he called Jap plays back in the 2000s.
No idea why people think England gunna win it, Brazil will wipe the floor with them.
so many people underrated japan. they are a good team who, on their day, can cause anyone problems.
No idea why he still has three centre backs on the pitch.
Such a shame Shinji didn't work out for us, a great temperament and a good player at

I’m loving this World Cup, it’s been breathtaking. Why focus on England? They may as well go out tomorrow.This WC is trash

Oh, didn’t realize you were a bitter German
Anime and manga are so proud of you lads.
I love how Japan adapted footbal to their unique location and culture - I don't think any other country was making 'sports fiction' animation like Captain Tsubasa in early 1980s! Its pretty rad imo
(actually I know there are some older Dutch cartoons but still)
Because they have individual talent. Even Portugal with Santos has more mental toughness than them. Soft. Remember those times when everybody liked Portugal because they were labeled with the "Golden Generation" tag or "Sexy Football".
Whatever that means.

It's not trash. The "favourites" don't have a divine right to beat everyone. That's such an arrogant attitude to have. Japan have mastered Belgium so far. They deserve to be ahead.
Why did they not start with boyata. He's been solid.
Not even sure they'll wipe the floor with Japan after this.
Japs is pejorative in North America. Not in the rest of the world. Just wanted to point that out to those who seem so scandalized.
Japan providing the blueprint to how to stop KdB. He's looked utterly useless and clueless.

Didn't Brazil just beat Mexico, and most of the wins have not been upsets to be fair. If Japan Hold on then I would say Russia beating Spain was the only one where it was a surprise and even that was on penalties.
Jap is an English abbreviation of the word "Japanese". Today it is generally regarded as an ethnic slur among Japanese minority populations in other countries, although English-speaking countries differ in the degree to which they consider the term offensive.
Who is saying England are going to win it?
That Japanese guy when he saw himself on the big screen
If they win today, a new season of Captain Tsubasa will be under production!
Will Martinez not even take a defender off and put a striker on? What is he playing at? You're 0-2 down !!!!
Japan's players master the basics of football. How I wish some African teams displayed the same
Belgium's 3-5-2 been ruthlessly exploited in this game. Carrasco is even worse at coming back to defend than Marcelo.
Fellarz does look a bit like Godzilla, it might scare them.
All I know is this doesn't say, Potion, Phoenix Down or Blizzaga.
I need to stop drinking.
I would take Kompany and Witsel off, and bring on Fellaini and Dembele.

The Belgians have been waffling for 60 minutes.
