European domination so far. Only tiny Iceland failed to beat its non-European opponents.
Disappointing start by the other continents.
Uruguay could won for 2-3 goals if Suarez didn't fail everything

Peru had bad luck. They were way better than Eriksen's gangs... Argentina tough :sergio: and the rest is just as u said, dissapointment

Obviously Europe >>> all, but from those we've seen Russia will now have to play decent opponents, Denmark probably lucked out and at least one of the Balkans is bound to self destruct :D

Lets see how good we are. Latest friendlies were far from impressive.

If Mexico have a good start and come out guns blazing, they might stand a chance.

I'd like to remind you that Denmark beat them 2-0 weeks ago, so no pressure germans

Everything can happen, but I still expect Europe to go strong. Sweden and Poland are in very tricky groups, while a European team in groups with Brazil and Argentina (Croatia/Iceland, Serbia/Switzerland) getting eliminated won't be a surprise at all. Russia will make the knockouts, this way or another. Denmark did 80% of the job with the win over Peru.
In 2010 and 2014 only 6/13 Europeans made the knockouts. This year the number will most probably be (much) higher. Maybe 11/14 or at worst 10/14.

that's the point i guess. it's basically a tournament held in europe so i expect european teams to do well. i wouldn't be surprised if brazil were the only non-european team to make it to the semifinals.
Even if you're joking, that's impossible because there are 2 groups with only 1 European team, which means that at least 2 non-European teams will make the knockouts :D

We cause i'm german.
I think you feel with the german NT like I feel with the danish one.

Its a pretty "meh" feeling. The Danish NT never really interested me much. I wish them to do well, but I dont feel that hype from them as many other danes do.

So many German flags in Russia, reminds me of the good ol´ days in 1942.
