Newbie (1/14)

  1. Could it be John Lennon? The nose is very much his, glasses too.
  2. The last I checked, the classic Coltrane Quartet albums were still in print and readily available.
  3. I like Hermann Scherchen Brandenburgs.
  4. Alas, Joseph de Maistre's "Every nation gets the government it deserves" rings true for both countries.
  5. I wish Croats all the best, but it might as well be a high point that would take them a while (if ever) to surpass. Remember that they weren't even the top in their qualification group (Iceland was). The keeper seemed like he wasn't feeling well, maybe his injury in 1/4 final with Russia finally got to him. If so, it was a big gamble for Dalić to let him play. He could have clearly tried to save the last two- yet he was standing still as the ball whizzed by.
  6. Perhaps just so that Americans won't mistake those for Paris, TX, Berlin, NH or London, OH, etc
  7. What a start to Croatia- Denmark game. 1:1 after only 4 minutes of play.
  8. До свидания, España! Gritty win by Russians- probably the only way they could pull it off. Glad Spain is out- their game is unbearable to watch. 1000+ passes = 5 shots on goal hardly makes a winning formula.
  9. Btw, the first goal by Koreans is a good pro argument for VAR.
  10. Too bad Koreans had no chance to advance. But Mexico owes them A LOT. Didn't see that game but looks like Sweden just torn them apart...yet they're still marching on...Probably not far with a game like that.
  11. Perhaps the worst day for Germany since May 9, 1945. Meanwhile, Mexicans totally owe their good fortune to Koreans. What a start to a day! Is it too much to ask for Serbs to play like Koreans against Brazil?
  12. I was watching Portugal- Spain game in the main public square of Lisbon (Praca do Commercio). The vibe there was unbelievable, very positive, even when Spain took the lead.
  13. France-Denmark- what a disgrace! Hope both will be eliminated in the round of 16.
