For a reminder, I did a ranking of who my favorite teams were by spreadsheet. This is difficult because Uruguay has lost probably my favorite player, in terms of maximum entertainment value, do to his antics, but continues to have Diego Forlán, so I think I’m going to leave them at #2 and not readjust everything. Also I’m lazy.
Updated list of 16 ranked:
- United States
- Uruguay
- Mexico
- Argentina
- Costa Rica
- Brazil
- Colombia
- Chile
- Algeria
- Nigeria
- Netherlands
- Greece
- Switzerland
- Belgium
- France
- Germany
Brazil v Chile (I’d be happy for Uruguay with a Chile victory, though)
Colombia v Uruguay
Netherlands v Mexico
Costa Rica v Greece
France v Nigeria
Germany v Algeria
Argentina v Switzerland
Belgium v United States
Can I add how exciting it would be to get to the next round with two african teams and no European teams. #BigDreams
