Joachim Low? I doubt it. Dude brought Germany their first title since reunification
"Gamesmanship". I'm a soccer supporter and I hate this term. It's stalling. Just call it stalling.
Wouldn’t be surprised if he does. No matter how you slice it, embarrassing historic losses don’t sit well with Germany.

Seriously though it sometimes amazes me how quick they are to fire a manager in soccer. It’s unbelievable. Club level as well.
Crazy World Cup. USA and Italy didn't qualify, and Argentina barely did. Germany got knocked out in the group phase, and any of Spain, Portugal, Mexico, and Argentina probably should have.
Before the start, read a interesting article on the BBC about who would win - how to pick winner based on history. Well, no unseeded team ever won, no non-Euro team ever won in Europe, etc etc. So they narrowed it down to Belgium and Germany. They picked Belgium, because "Germany historically does not travel well to Russia" or something like that. Hilarious, love the English always taking the not so subtle jab at the Germans.
The other 2 comments I saw that were good:
"Don't mention ze VAR"
and
"People are really enjoying Germany's misery on going out. If only there was a word in English to describe that kind of feeling"

As it stands currently in Group H, Colombia is the winner, and there is a tie between Japan and Senegal, with a tie in goal differential I believe. Does anyone know how they break a tiebreaker tie?
I think you're right. I knew there was something, obviously, but just couldn't remember.
Looking at that, however, they have both scored 4 goals as it stands haha
