The Commonwealth Games should have an under 21 football tournament in it. It would be a good experience for younger players from the Home Nations.

Kind of wish they would bring back the World Cup winners automatically qualify for the next World Cup.
Though in fairness I would be extremely shocked if Germnay didn't qualify for Russia

And the only one they missed was because of suspension directly after World War II.

Still can't believe Germany beat Brazil 7-1. As far as I'm concerned, that was the real final.

Argentinan coach started his interview by giving excuses and saying the result is only secondary. Yet, had they won, we would've never heard the end of it. And so the best team in the tournament takes it home. Amazing World Cup with an amazing winner. I'll say what happened to Argentina in the game. They played Extra Time to get to Penalty Kicks and it came back to bite them in the ass. And during the game, while Germany was passing the ball, Argentina was going just for quick breaks. Also ref was allowing Argentinian players to beat the sh** out of Schweinsteiger out there.

Up until the point where Argentina lost their s*** and started playing so dirty, I was ok with either team winning. On the other side, it made the ending feel more wrestling-like to me. A babyface comeback after dirty heel tactics.

So what better way to celebrate Germany's win than a little bit of Rammstein?

I'll miss watching The FIFA World Cup Brazil 2014.
MLS doesn't have the quite the same excitement and USA barely get any of the other leagues (English Premier, for example) shown often on television here.

I like international football, because success really has to be earned. You can't just buy it like in club football.

Yeah, and if your sports package has BeIn Sports you get Serie A, Ligue 1, LIGA BBVA. The only top league NBC or BeIn doesn't have rights to is Germany I do believe.

After the JR commentary vids for the Brazil game, I want to see one for this, where Schweinsteiger gets a crimson mask.
