Greetings from the past! Another travel day for me means delayed viewing, I’m still in the first halves of the Group E games: #SER & #BRA duking it out to get to the knockout rounds; SUI looking for a result against already-eliminated #CRC. #AWCHQ #SERBRA #SUICRC ⚽️

Mein Gott! All context once again, and it’s the Korea vs Germany game I’d recommend. WOW. #AWCHQ #KORGER #MEXSWE ⚽️

Four teams, two games, round of 16 awaits one, adds up to: zero excitement so far. Okay, maybe not zero. Zero point six three seven excitement so far. Hoping for more in the second 45! #AWCHQ #MEXSWE #KORGER ⚽️

A new day, & two more groups to finish! Today we ditch alphabetical order & start in Group F, with Korea Republic vs. Germany (#KORGER, should be sponsored by Kroger) on one screen, with Mexico vs. Sweden on the other. Any 2 of these could advance! #AWCHQ #MEXSWE ⚽️

Wow. What a pair of games, All the teams playing their hearts out (except maybe #CRO; they weren’t taking the day off but they weren’t dying for it like the other 3). My recommendation is as easy as it is bandwagony-seeming: Nigeria vs. Argentina all the way.

Here we go with the second half and the final verdicts in Group D! For me these games have been thin on pure entertainment but full of suspenseful excitement due to context! #NGAARG #ISLCRO ⚽️

And here we go with the second pair: #NGA v #ARG and #ISL v #CRO. Lots of scenarios to juggle here, too. Will this be the final episode of The Messi Show in this 2018 #WorldCup season? #AWCHQ #NGAARG #ISLCRO ⚽️
