I love how the World Cup is like "Say no to racism" so they put several countries in a fight to see who's better at the sport

How is that racist?

Im not saying the organisers are racist, im just saying its not very smart considering the fans would be racist to countries that they beat/lost to

It's not like they're pitting races or religions against each other.

Racism is a very serious problem in Eastern European football especially. Many Black players there are harassed by fans, and get thrown things at. It's a horrible, horrible thing.

No one is going to a World Cup final with 7 injuries.

Portugal is better then the US and Belgium, and arguably around the same skill-set as Argentina and Netherlands.

We could've gotten SILVER! :C

They would've crushed Argentina, Netherlands and Germany in that order. Portugal only does well after the group stages.

And if Brazil had no injuries/ cards... Would've been so different.

Not so sure about that... I think they would have lost either way, just not 7-1... that is just too big a of a beating to use they didnt have Neymar as an excuse. Not hating on Brasil, but I think with him maybe it would have been a closer match but if they played so bad, one single player would not have made a difference.

They also didn't have Silvia.
