My husband likes it to watch soccer games with his friends at a bar
but I'm so nervous, that I don't like it to have so many people around me while I'm watching a soccer game
I need a lot personal space to jump around and scream at my TV
My younger son has watched with me today

Wow, so many upsets in the opening matches. Even the Brazil/Switzerland match.

I’m sure that Germany will do better in the next matches, Sonja, so yes don’t be too sad about it.

That’s awesome, Paulina! It must be awesome to watch with others in pubs for example since everyone will be hyped up and excited.

What a football filled weekend LOL

Switzerland did well against Brazil
And out of all the games I've watched, I'd say Spain-Protugal definitely was the best level of playing
(although those endless rounds of passing the ball with no forward momentum by Spain bores me to death )

I also rooted for Iceland
And well done them

Paulina, I was actually checking and was suprised to see Poland had not been in it since 2006
I hope they do well this year!!

Happy Monday, everyone

Happy Monday, lovelies! Such a sluggish one for me. I need to do better tomorrow.

Happy Monday my lovely Kru!
The Brazil/Switzerland Tie was really a surprise ... Well done Switzerland!
Thanks for comforting me, Sarah
I don't give up the hope until it's over and I hope we'll see a better performance from the German Team against Sweden
Yes, like I've said it before ... the Spain-Portugal game had the quality to be a Final
I could watch such games every day
Germany plays the same boring system ... I could scream "Do something! Play forward! Play faster!" at them the most time
Okay, it was better at the 2nd half, but they have started to play faster much too late
Spain is successful with that system, because they keep the ball better

It's really surprising how the defending champions/typically strongest teams aren't starting out too well ... but I must say, as someone who's not invested in any teams per say, it makes for more exciting viewing. But nervewrecking for actual fans, I'm sure.

I was rooting for Korea in the Korea/Sweden match (because yay, Asian team!) but unfortunately, they were outmatched there.

sonny1

You're right, Sarah ... the tournament is more interesting when the teams are at a similar level

I'm sorry for you that Korea has lost the game
I had hopes, that Korea will make the 1:1 Tie ... that would be better for Germany
Now we have too win the next game against Sweden ... If we lose, then it's over

Tomorrow you'll root for Japan, Sarah? I think they'll have a tough game against Colombia

destroyer of worlds

Yes, I will. Side note, Richard is rooting them on too. He was wearing a Japan jersey recently.

And thanks. It's just nice to see an Asian team do well (when it's usually European-dominated) but the Swedes were just too good.

sonny1

Okay, then I'll root for Japan tomorrow with you and Richard

Thanks, Sonja. Hope that you enjoy the rest of the matches tonight, heading to bed.

Sleep well Sarah

I swear trying to buy this condo will be the end of me! Once it's (hopefully) over soon (hopefully) I'll explain why it's so annoying

destroyer of worlds

Ugh, I know (at least part of) the hassle all too well, Lisa. Hang in there! Hopefully, the rest of it goes smoother.

Nasty set piece strike by Germany to win it!

Wow, that was amazing! Germany couldn't buy a second goal... post, Swedish goalie being Superman, incredible stuff!

That direct Free Kick Strike right outside the box was one of the best set piece shots I've ever seen. Bang!

Congrats, Sonja!

Thanks so much Michelle

That game has almost killed me, not gonna lie

Great goals from Reus and especially from Kroos

WE‘RE BACK BITCHES!!!
