I keep ticking off these big Nations thinking "ooooh, it's ours!" Then remember, it's also making it easier for Brazil and France, Who were my top 2 favs to win it.
I wouldn't say that this early. They do have Hazard, De Bruyne and Lukaku. Who can all score from absolutely nothing.
Well, Colombia are a more dangerous side than Japan. So we can judge that after tomorrow night. If we beat Colombia, and this stays the same. Then yes.
Colombia conceded a Pen in the 2nd minute, and the CB got sent off. Japan scored that Pen. Colombia then outplayed Japan with 10 men and got the equaliser. Then second half, I think their players obviously tired a lot for playing a whole game with 10 men. Japan got an undeserved winner.
I can't tell if that was a fluke. Commentators say it was, it looks like a header no one would ever make and think they could score though, surely? The way he heads it, and flight of the ball, doesn't look like a fluke though. I can't decide.
...Yes, but what I'm saying is. they beat Colombia 2-1 in the group stage because they played against 10 men for over 90 minutes, and on of their goals was the Pen. Doesn't mean Japan are better than Colombia.
Reminds me of South Korea and Portugal in 66 Anyone else remember that? Have Belguim got a Eusebio? Yes they have 3-2
