What a Freekick!!

Leagues ahead of Ronaldo - I'm sorry but Messi is just a different level of player.
I wouldn't say that. He's not exactly playing World beaters and even then he's been generally poor in this group barring the goals. Today he's been slightly better but he's not exactly dominating the Nigerian defense

He's been excellent.

Argentinas midfield has been rubbish. Despite that he's scored 4 in 3 games.
 
Shaqiri with 2 goals for the Swiss. His first is among the best in this WC so far too.

Messi has been given man of the match in all 3 of Argentinas games and is currently leading the goal scoring charts. Not sure that he could be doing much more... If he's poor then what are the rest of the players?!
 
Ghana bottled it. There for their taking and they bottled it. Germany will have a easy path while USA will probably bow out to Belgium
 
Three out of 4 Concacaf teams advance in 2014, including "whipping boys" Costa Rica winning group. I mean, USA even beat CR during qualifying. USA wins group in 2010. Advances from Group of Death in 2014. And you can't even blame it on Giroud, Kyle.

Where will you be watching the game on Tuesday, Kyle?

I think the Spain,Netherlands and Chile group was more of a group of death personally. That is to take nothing away from the imperialist Yankees though <ok>
