Also, love that there has already been a major upset, but disappointed that it was Argentina that suffered it--they are now under a lot of pressure to get Ws against two solid teams in Mexico and Poland. Love the ties in groups C and D--going to make for some drama in the next week.

France looked absolutely unbelievable today. England won 6-2, and even with that same effort, I don't think they'd stand a chance against France. Knockout soccer is a crapshoot, but that's assuming you can stay within a goal of a team. And I don't see how anyone stays within a goal of this French team

France didn't look great until they fell behind, then they seemed to wake up

They dominated 80 minutes of play, and Australia was lucky France only scored 4.  They could have easily had 6 or 7.  And even in those first 10 minutes, France had a couple of solid chances.  I'm interested to see how Brazil, Belgium, and to a lesser extent, Germany and Spain look. But France looked on a whole other level to me today, even above England

france is weak at the back, but their attack is unreal. but i could definitely see a sound england team that's finally putting up an attack beating them.

germany just lost to japan. 2 major upsets, though japan is no slouch and playing really well recently.

Qatar befitting of its role as Chaminade.   No UVA equivalent however.

Once they go to 48, they'll probably qualify anyway because that is going to be a joke of a tournament

Admitted non-soccer fan here but still loves great theater which the WC is....  Japan loses to CR and wins a group with Spain and Germany in it. Lol.

Also, for about 3 minutes CR was in a position to advance.  I've been informed Costa Rica is a trash squad.
