⚽ FIFA World Cup 2022: Tournament Discussion Thread for Qatar 2022

[rdluffy]

What do you think about my opinions:

Switzerland 1-1 Cameroon
Uruguay 1-2 Korea Republic
Portugal 2-0 Ghana
Brazil 3-1 Serbia

Did you put any money to these bets? Or is it only for fun?

If you are gambling for real maybe take another look on Uruguay match, they are in a better level than South Korea
Of course there's some strange things happening in this cup, but I don't think Uruguay can lose this match.

Another point, I don't think Brazil will score 3 goals, Serbian team is pretty good, I believe in the minimum score for Brazil victory, 1x0

About Switzerland and Portugal matches, I have the same thoughts, a draw for the first, and a victory of Portugal


My only real bet for tomorrow is for Brazil's victory and the match will have 2 goals

I agree with only one of your predictions, and that is the one for the Portugal vs Ghana match. For the match between Switzerland and Cameroon, I believe that the former may win comfortably. And Uruguay is a very strong team and they are likely to destroy South Korea. And there is a small chance of upset during the Brazil match. Serbia was in terrific form during the world cup qualifiers and I am sure that Brazil will struggle to win against them. Aleksandar Mitrović and Dušan Tadić are in good form recently.

Uruguay 1-2 Korea Republic

You have brave to choose Korea, I don't expect Korea is the same as Japan even though they won against Iceland and Cameroon, (and draw against Costa Rica) in the last match. Uruguay is Uruguay, the same as other Latin clubs which I think will not give up easily to that Asian team win. Uruguay will win, and the veteran (Suarez and Cavani) will create a goal, this is the last chance for them to create the story before retiring.

Just for fun 



These are the results from the games played today:

Switzerland 1-0 Cameroon
Uruguay 0-0 Korea Republic
Portugal 3-2 Ghana
Brazil 2-0 Serbia

Ronaldo became the only footballer in history to score at 5 different world cup, an astonishing record. Portugal beat Ghana in a thrilling second half. In the other game Brazil beat Serbia as expected. This tournament is gaining momentum now because each team has played one game. The biggest surprises in the opening games have to be Argentina losing to Saudi Arabia alongside Germany losing to Japan.

These are the games being played tomorrow:

Wales vs Iran
Qatar vs Senegal
Netherlands vs Ecuador
England vs USA

Here are my opinions on the games, what are you views?
Wales 2-1 Iran
Qatar 2-1 Senegal
Netherlands 3-1 Ecuador
England 2-0 USA

[nullama]

It was worth noting that the only goal in Switzerland vs Cameroon was from a Cameroon born Swiss player.

He didn't celebrate the goal out of respect to his motherland.

Hehehe, happy here because I made some money with my bets, for real
My bets were Brazil victory and match with 2 goals, precisely  

I'm participating in another bets with my friends and I won too  

I don't have any idea about the goals of tomorrow's matches, but I believe in:

Wales victory against Iran
Qatar and Senegal - Draw
Netherlands will win against Ecuador
England and USA - draw, maybe this is the most difficulty, but I think this game can be my real bet for tomorrow

I thought Brazil might struggle somewhat because after watching Argentina and Germany lose games (they would normally be expected to win), maybe Serbia would go after another shock result. In the end I was not impressed with the Brazilian team even though they won 2-0 because if they were facing a stronger opposition they would have certainly found it problematic.

Here is my prediction:

Wales vs Iran: Win for Wales
Qatar vs Senegal: Win for Senegal
Netherlands vs Ecuador: Draw
England vs USA: win for England

Senegal is in good form, although they are suffering from the absence of Sadio Mane. They were very good against the Netherlands and lost that match only due to some bad planning towards the end. I want Ecuador to win against the Dutch, but given the current circumstances that maybe quite difficult.

There were some more surprises in the games played today:

Wales 0-2 Iran
Qatar 1-3 Senegal
Netherlands 1-1 Ecuador
England 0-0 USA

Qatar managed to score their first ever goal at a world cup but ended up losing the game to Senegal. Ecuador managed a draw against Netherlands but right now any two from three can qualify from Group A.

Iran managed to beat Wales in a thrilling game and England met a very determined and strong opponent in USA and they could not find a way to win. The USA needed to win the game to ease pressure on themselves but they failed, now the only way they can qualify for the next stage is by beating Iran because a draw or defeat means they will be knocked out of the competition.

Iran need just a draw against the USA which would mean them qualifying for the next stage and at the same time send the USA home. As for Wales, the only way they can qualify for the next stage is if they beat England by at least 3 goals and at the same time hope that the Iran vs USA game ends in a draw. Mathematically all four teams can qualify for the next stage but it seems England will qualify alongside either Iran or the USA.

This is what Group A and Group B look like with each team still to play one game:

Qatar managed to score their first ever goal at a world cup but ended up losing the game to Senegal. Ecuador managed a draw against Netherlands but right now any two from three can qualify from Group A.

It is a difficult situation for Ecuador and Senegal as they face each other in a race to qualify alongside Netherland, who is already a step to the next round, and they play a weak Qatar side who are already out of the world cup but will be looking for at least a first world cup win before returning home.

Iran managed to beat Wales in a thrilling game and England met a very determined and strong opponent in USA and they could not find a way to win. The USA needed to win the game to ease pressure on themselves but they failed, now the only way they can qualify for the next stage is by beating Iran because a draw or defeat means they will be knocked out of the competition.

Mathematically all four teams can qualify for the next stage but it seems England will qualify alongside either Iran or the USA.

It's strange how weak Iran was able to defeat Wales; after their fantastic performance against the USA in the first game, I was surprised they couldn't do anything against a weak Iran side that conceded five goals against England. To make matters worse, I bet a few dollars on Wales to win at 2.22 and spent the entire 90 minutes watching a different Wales side, with zero creativity and zero desire to win.


I was not impressed with England's performance yesterday, which was below average; I had no idea the USA could dominate them tactically after the impressive 5-2 win over Iran. Group B faces a difficult final round, but England and the United States appear to be favorites.

Hehehe, my only real bet yesterday was England x USA draw, and I won again, pretty happy here
I won Brazil x Serbia, 2 bets, and now this is the third bet

For today I didn't place any bet yet
Australia 1 vs 0 Tunisia surprised me, because Australia is not so weak as we saw against France

France x Denmark - France victory
Poland x Saudi Arabia - Draw
Argentina x Mexico - Argentina victory

Today I think I wont do any bet for real because I have some doubts, not easy to guess about Argentina, so today it's only for fun

England won the game against Iran 6-2 (not 5-2). As for you saying Iran being weak, they are not a weak team they dominated the second half of that game against Wales and deserved to win. If you saw the game after placing a wager you will know how brilliant the Iranians were, I would not be surprised if they beat the USA in their final game.

Here are the results from the games played today:

Tunisia 0-1 Australia   
Poland 2-0 Saudi Arabia   
France 2-1 Denmark   
Argentina 2-0 Mexico

The is how Group C and D stand after the games played today:

[Roman_Picisan]

Argentina was able to win the tournament tonight very nicely, Leonel Messi contributed 1 goal and 1 assist, they have opportunities depending on how they deal with Poland in the future, Saudi Arabia suffered a defeat, they also have the same opportunity if Argentina wins then they must win, if Argentina  lose to Poland then they need a draw, and.  if Argentina draws vs Poland then Arab must win.

[nullama]

That first goal from Morocco against Belgium was, I think, the first goal directly from a free kick.

Also it's worth noting that this is Morocco's first win in a long time, I think something around 25 years.

It's a bit incredible to see Belgium, who most people regard as a very strong team, lose against Morocco, which most people would regard as a weaker team.

But football is full of surprises, and now Morocco after two games is standing in second place, undefeated, just below Croatia because of goal difference.

And Canada is already out of the race.

Very surprising turn of events for group F

[JollyGood]

These are the results from the games played yesterday:

Japan 0-1 Costa Rica
Belgium 0-2 Morocco
Croatia 4-1 Canada
Spain 1-1 Germany

It would be fair to say Japan was expected to win the game and qualify for the next stage but they lost to Costa Rica, that was a surprise but a bigger surprise was Belgium losing to Morocco. Canada cannot qualify for the next stage after losing both of their opening games.

The is how Group E and F stand after the games played yesterday:

[Agbe]

These are the results from the games played yesterday:

Japan 0-1 Costa Rica
Belgium 0-2 Morocco
Croatia 4-1 Canada
Spain 1-1 Germany

Japan was beaten by Costa Rica shock to me because I trusted Japan very well. Morocco beaten Belgium was another shocked again. Well football is not like that. Spain and Germany, well Germany tried.
Cameroon and Serbia played, Cameroon 3 - 3 Serbia which was a good game for Cameroon.
South Korea 2 - 3 Ghana. South Korea players were in full control of the ball at the last few minutes, but Ghana did not give them chance to score again. So the match end with 2-3.
Today's matches were interesting. The second legs in the tournament is favoring the African teams. The knockout stage will tell us more

[JollyGood]

These are the results from the games played today:

Cameroon 3-3 Serbia
Korea Republic 2-3 Ghana 
Brazil 1-0 Switzerland 
Portugal 2-0 Uruguay

Cameroon vs Serbia was a brilliant match to watch but that was followed by another great match when Ghana defeated South Korea. The best part of the Brazil game was to see how well Switzerland played. As expected, Portugal have gone through to the next round.

[Sithara007]

Argentina was able to win the tournament tonight very nicely, Leonel Messi contributed 1 goal and 1 assist, they have opportunities depending on how they deal with Poland in the future, Saudi Arabia suffered a defeat, they also have the same opportunity if Argentina wins then they must win, if Argentina  lose to Poland then they need a draw, and.  if Argentina draws vs Poland then Arab must win.

Winning one match against Mexico, and that too after losing to Saudi Arabia in the first match is a lot different from winning the tournament. They have one match against Poland remaining. And even if they win this match, there is no guarantee that they will be able to secure qualification to the pre-quarter final stage. Before the start of the tournament, Argentina was being considered as one of the favorites to lift the trophy. Now we are doubtful whether they will be able to secure qualification to the next stage. Feels bad for Messi, as this is his last world cup.

Brazil 1-0 Switzerland 

I know it's going happen because Brazil squad is very solid from each line. As we can see how they play on the 1st match versus Serbia, seem like they don't have any deficiency, and that happen again last night, the is nothing shoot on target from Switzerland, and Allison (a goalkeeper) take a rest during the match, their defense is capable to block and reverse the situation to be the goal even with or without Neymar, because Brazil no shortage of attackers and playmaker, they are a complete team atm.

I will bet them until the Final.

Uruguay is a life and death match for them because they must be required to win the match against South Korea, because there is a chance for Uruguay in the match against South Korea, and these two countries still have the same chance to qualify for the next round, I hope that South Korea will qualify and win the game later when facing Uruguay, because Uruguay has been inconsistent from the start of the opening of the World Cup.
