    Flawless game by Japan. Match of the tourney with that ending. Belgium had better beat Brazil now, make this magic mean something.

    After the 1st half, I decided not to watch the 2nd half but changed my mind. I've never seen the equivalent of a buzzer beater in World Cup before today.

    Belgium must play a lot better or Brazil will smoke them.

    Man they need to have Gus Johnson in the box just to go insane when somebody scores or makes a great play.



    Can you imagine him going nuts on the big plays today?

    Smashing game lads, much respect for Japan. Brutal way to lose.

    They tried Gus with soccer on FOX in 2014ish and he ended up stepping down from the position.

    Yeah that why I was thinking he could just go crazy for big plays and not call the whole thing -- three in the box with him as a hype man.

    No way Brasil is favorite against Belgium. Not only is Belgium playing well, they must be so full of confidence coming back 0-2 in the second half. Talk about a vertical game. Just beautiful to watch.

    In the earlier game Friday game, France vs. Uruguay. Another must watch game.

    Falk exclusively announcing that Löw has decided to continue til 2022, sucks. Really wanted a fresh start with Kuntz.

    Not sure about Kuntz. Never coached Bundesliga or somewhat compared, was only successful with youth teams. Gotta give Löw that one chance until 2020 to structure a new team.
