Just looked at odds to qualify bookies not giving anything away

Sweden-1/25
Mexico-5/6
Germany-8/13

Mexico 5/6 aint bad seeing as they only need one goal to be almost certain, or the status quo.

Korea aren't through now even if they win so I'm expecting their challenge to die. Attack vs defence for Germany in the last 20 mins.

For someone who has stopped gambling you look at odds and bookies far too much... surely that cant help.

Dunno bet they'd love to have the pride of beating the World Champions

oh dear mexico

3-0 Swedes!!

Mexico Mexico Mexico....

Laddick01

So many poor teams in this tournament it’s unbelievable

Callumcafc

Now Germany only need one to go through UNLESS Mexico score twice.

ForeverAddickted

So Sweden have won the Group then... Still means the Germans will likely face Brazil even if they do score

Manicmania

5/6 looks a bit crap now...

What minute for the Germany winner then. I'm going with 87.

Given the drama of the last couple of nights i can see them struggling and Switzerland smashing Costa rica

Wouldnt surprise me in the slightest

Manicmania

so sweden/switzerland most probably in the last 16 - It kind of rankles with me that either of those 2 would be quarter finalists tbh

Pierce - "Never count out the Germans"

Except in World Wars

ForeverAddickted

At the moment there are Office workers every where simply stunned

Bet there were a good few who when they picked Germany at the sweepstake thought they were guaranteed the winnings

Laddick01

Germany are genuinely lucky they have played some truly awful counter attacking sides. They should’ve conceded 2/3 here

paulie8290

South Korea had a couple of great chances to win this

Manicmania

if Germany got a goal in the 95th minute ruled out by VAR I would take back everything i've ever said about it...

He came on on
86th minute
87th minute
78th minute

And yet for me Brandt has been their best player this World cup, they look so much more attacking with him why does he not start

i hope Germany go out they bombed some scousers chippy

Judging by the size of Karl I think the Scousers have recovered.

I’ll agree with that. It shouldn’t of been a question of Brandt or Sane. Taking Draxler was the unforgivable error

Chris_from_Sidcup

Korea have absolutely no composure once they get in the final third

ForeverAddickted

Well you cant say they've not learnt from History

Germans are making a much better effort of getting out of Russia this time round
