D. Sanchez looks like Ledley King.
Mina resembles Danny Welbeck
2 of the finest indigenous coaches Nigeria ever had lost in a space of 4 days. Dear Lord, is this a sign that you are taking away from us what we failed to appreciate? I pray for forgiveness of our sins. I pray for the humility to recognize our wrongs and the humbleness and wisdom to right our ways.

I’m not watching but I love Colombia. Damn good footballers over the years. I too have fond memories of Higuita, Fredy Rincon, Valderrama and co.

Hope they can pull this out. I’d like to see them achieve their potential. And stop brain cramping.

How Poland is ranked 7th shows the ranking system is biased towards Africa.

Yes.

I felt bad for them last WC. Brazil goaded them into a classic South American derby. Colombia took the bait. Killed Neymar but abandoned their skill game.

I hope they maintain composure and grind for this out. My sentimental favorite in my his group. Discipline has been their issue over the years.

Yeah but remember Higuita and a certain microwave named Roger Milla?

;)

Jokes aside, this is why you don’t engage in such antics unless the game is well in hand.

Poland's biggest problem is lack of a good playmaker......................that's means that their best asset( Lewandowski) remains useless.

Lack of clinical finishing is what will be Columbia's undoing against Senegal.

Poland are just a one trick pony. Pass to Lewandowski.

Lewandoski almost gets behind the line. Well saved by Ospina.
