The world can survive the war in Ukraine. Im not so sure about a potential World Cup final between Portugal and Argentina.

Ronaldo: "Hi coach, will I be back in the starting XI against Morocco?"
Santos: "Going into a tunnel now krdbiybmktvhefghtthhtjioywwdf sorry gotta go!"

Poor Luís Henrique...

I really hope they'll dare to play as free flowing as they have in this game. There's nothing more depressing than imagining Argentina-Brazil in a semi final and it ending with no goals and penalties. Hell no. You described Argentina vs Netherlands in 2014 semifinals. Terrible game. This time will be better.

So I'm going to summarize the predictions by me, oasisserbia and RocketMan, and I've put together some sort of system. Correct winner - 1 point Correct winning margin - 2 points Correct result - 3 points And from that system we have this ranking: RocketMan: 8 points funhouse: 8 points* oasisserbia: 7 points *I gave myself 2.5 points for predicting the correct score in Arg-Aus, had to take off half a point for guessing it would happen in extra time. In regards to Morocco-Spain I'm not really sure how 0-0 and a win on penalties should count, but my 1-0 prediction being so close resulted in me giving myself an additional half point, very objectively of course.

This feels rigged but since I’m leading i won’t complain (yet)

I never would've guessed Morocco wins on penalties. Their finishing was awful so I didn't have big hopes for them being good at penalties. Luckily I was wrong.

Other than Brazil, I think all the games will be fairly close which is exciting, but also hard to pick
Argentina-Netherlands 2-1
I don’t know which fuckery Louis Van Gaal is trying to pull off but I think the Messi factor will carry Argentina through
Brazil-Croatia 3-1
Brazil is the best Team left while Croatia is old and just comes off a 120min game
Morocco-Portugal 2-4
I think it will be close throughout but Portugal wins it comfortably in the end. They look pretty good without Ronaldo and to have Leao on the bench is almost a cheat.
England-France 2-2 (0-2 extra time)
Cant wait for this game. Could go either way but it’s really time for England to show me something I haven’t seen before. They had a cakewalk in 2018 and then dropped the ball in the semi final, they had a semi home euro last year and then couldn’t get it done in the final. Time to finally show up against a big name in a big game. this is a subjective guess

Argentina-Netherlands 1-2 Brazil-Croatia 1-1 Brazil on Pens 3-1 Morocco-Portugal 2-1 England-France 2-1 Most of mine have been taken so I thought I'd go a bit left field. I don't actually think England are going to win

I don't know if Croatia has the magic they had in 2018, but I trust them.
Don't count out this team.
Croatia-Brazil 2-2 (Croatia win 3-2 in penalty kicks) Netherlands-Argentina 2-1 England-France 1-3 Morocco-Portugal 1-3

Trippier is in the Guardian today, briefly talking about Jordan Pickford listening to “horrific” rave music. As a reference…
