THEORIES ABOUT THE CHAMPION'S CURSE:

1. Champion's Curse is passed to the next team, but only once the last champion has a generational change. Both Italy and Spain changed their squads a lot for the next WC, but Germany didn't (just a shower thought I had)

 

2. France will be World Champion for the second time in a row. This means France can't be eliminated and because of that, the curse moves to the prior champion, Germany, who is affected twice in a row. 

France will then be eliminated in the 2026 group stage.

Schedule for Tomorrow:

  2. Ghana ?? vs. Uruguay ?? (10am EST | 7am PST)
  3. Serbia ?? vs. Switzerland??(2pm EST | 11am PST)
  4. Cameroon ?? vs. Brazil ?? (2pm EST | 11am PST)
 
Set your alarms everyone, it’s gonna be brutal for those stateside.
 
Like last time I’m not really rooting for anyone this time around, but I might drop in to watch a few of the games if I’m around.
 

My Predictions are:
  1. South Korea ?? vs. Portugal ?? 2-3
  2. Ghana ?? vs. Uruguay ??5-2
  3. Serbia ?? vs. Switzerland ??3-1
  4. Cameroon ?? vs. Brazil ??3-4
I’m gonna be up for a bit longer, so I can take some more predictions. Got a couple blokes prolonging my session, so I’m trying to make up for some lost time.
 
I decided to let my friend pick out the scores for me this time. Im curious to see if he gets one right before me. ?

South Korea look beyond tired but they've only gone and scored in the 90th minute.

South Korea 2 - 1 Portugal (Portugal playing a weakened team).

Uruguay & Ghana currently going out.

Ghana had a pen in the first half which was saved. A terrible penalty, should have blasted it.

Suarez reaction was priceless ?, when he found out South Korea is winning.

DREADFUL game, Brazil's B-team is trash. There goes our 9 points and to top it off I punched the wall so hard my wrist hurts.

On the bright side we still got 1st place and the "easier" (0 confidence right now) side of the bracket.

 

Funnily, France, Portugal and Brazil qualified winning the first 2 games and lost the 3rd.

Schedule for Tomorrow:
  1. Netherlands ?? vs. USA ?? (10am EST | 7am PST)
  2. Argentina ?? vs. Australia ?? (2pm EST | 11am PST)
Only game I’m looking forward to is the first match. Whoever wins it I’ll be content with, but I’m still hoping that Netherlands ?? takes it. Don’t care about Argentina ??, so here’s to Australia ?? taking it.
 

My Predictions are:
  1. Netherlands ?? vs. USA ?? 2-1
  2. Argentina ?? vs. Australia ?? 2-2 (Australia wins)
