Why am I even watching this. Fucking football.
Piss poor World Cup. I get shouted down for saying it, but I'm right. It's basically a bunch of supremely fit athletes now.
I'd say it's a case of boring tactics, or rather, the lack of any tactics - no team has any real identity. I hated Spain and their tika-takka football towards the end but at least they set a stage and tried to build a game. Chile and Costa Rica had an identity as did Columbia, despite having inferior players, and their games were worth watching as result.
This is just a confused mess heading towards penalties. Replace the kits and it could be any 22 players out there.
