It took me 8 matches but finally got one right: Croatia - Nigeria 2-0
1/8, quite sure a monkey could have a higher score than this.

Sorry to ruin it here, but your streak just ended. What a game!

Argentina - Island 1-1 Argentina - Croatia 0-3 I'm sure there is a serious strategy behind all this  I hope it will start working soon  |

I think either Germany or Brazil will succeed this year. Quite hard to guess, with so many good teams playing in this World Cup. I'm hoping to see some smaller teams surprising in this edition, like Costa Rica in 2014  I would say the favourites for this year are Brazil, France and Germany(most likely), Belgium, Portugal and Spain(Not very likely), and England(least likely out of the favourites, but can still put up a good fight). It seems to be happening in some groups now. Senegal and Japan won their opening matches and Russia (ranked 65 in the world) is already assured of a spot in the round of 16. Doesn't appear to be happening in most groups though |

Doesn't appear to be happening in most groups though I frankly think that Russia is ranked 65 because they didn't take part in the qualifying campaign. But nevertheless, usually big teams are slow starters(Spain 2010, Brazil 1958, Uruguay 2014...), so I think when the decision really comes, bigger teams will prevail. But it looks interesting, either way. |

But it looks interesting, either way. Germany and Brazil won their second matches so that is a possibility, and England and Belgium are through group G, so maybe you could be right in a way |

Because of the Albanian showing signs provocating (Albanian eagle) to serbs after he scored the goal, the transmission of the match was stopped. Because of the loss of Serbia to Switzerland, a resturant had to suffer being set on fire as they were run by Albanians in my city. Just wanted to point out how agressive someone can go just because of a football match and recent history mixed with some stubborness.
