Yes - very entertaining and a good result.
The German team showed that they can compete with Spain, very good for their self confidence. Costa Rica will not be the problem, but you never know.
Given that Canada, USA and Mexico each already qualify as hosts for 2026, in what sort of "off-season" regimen is each required to participate? By the same token, did Qatar have to play in any kind of lead-up tournaments prior to the WC? I'm guessing all such prior matches are regarded as "friendlies"?....
The players just have to read IORR for the 4 years.
Meanwhile in Canada, seems we're going to have a national holiday because we finally scored a goal in a World Cup game!
According to Sport catalan media, Antonio Rüdiger might have spoken to his Real Madrid partner Dani Carvajal, to ask him after the game :
"Now, defeat Japan !"
Dani Olmo confessed that his Leipzig partners asked him for the same thing.
Well it just goes to show that Germany have their fate in the hands of their ennemies. Huge danger !
It's not over 'til it's over...
And in the end the final will be Argentina-Germany... (with Argentina winning, and Messi finally filling up the shoes of Diego).

Indeed...Germany will win number 5.
Could be wishful thinking on behalf of the Dutch team then. Just in case we have to face Brazil.

Germany is in great danger...it's been a very long time that they did not win any of their first two games in the world cup.
Now they must absolutely win the game against Costa Rica.
Wow, it's hot !

Yes clearly outclassed by Croatia...
But we did score our 1st world cup goal ever ! Alfonso !
great experience for 2026 I believe we are automatically qualified as a host country.
Yes to all.

yes it's very tight in most groups to know who will be the next qualified teams.
The last game will be the death game for lots of them.

Spain the best team for me so far. Brazil have a great chance to win it too.
France should make the semis. Then it's a toss up between England (if they play Foden), and maybe one of Argentina, Portugal and Germany if they get through the group stage.
But really, Spain have a young team, are attacking-minded, keep possession and play a strong pressing game.

yes agree for Spain, they have no weak point, defense, middle and attack work fine for the moment.
Spain, Argentina, England, Portugal, Brazil, France...four of them are likely to reach the semis.
