Well penalty shootout are more intense and mouth-watering to watch after all, it always leaves us at the edges of our seats in excitement. I enjoyed it fully....2 penalty shootouts in a day....in short it was amazingly intense stuff to watch.absolutely can't believe the croatia v denmark game... so much in the first five minutes and then, just... absolutely nothing. for ages. this world cup is getting odder and odder with every match.
I guess you mean Asian.Brazil still in it boooo
Japan to cause an upset and win. Our first Asain champions woo!
Wait, did we actually just win a penalty shootout?
This World Cup though
I was at Wembley with my mum in January, just before I moved to Japan, for the match when harry became Tottenham's highest ever scorer in the Premier League. The whole stadium started singing "one season wonder". It was a great moment!Loved seeing one of my favourite players in this World Cup Harry Kane score and get further ahead in the race for the Golden Boot.
Obviously it's a bit hard to sink in...especially when England finally broke a long, long going tradition of suffering heart wrenching losses in penalty shootouts. TBH how much nervous did you feel when Henderson missed a penalty strike to give Colombia a 3-2 lead?It's been days and I'm honestly still struggling to believe it. I can't believe I'm saying this but . . . it's coming home!
I see. Anyway Harry Kane sure is one of the upcoming greats/legends in the world of Football, I don't think there should be any doubt about this after this World Cup at least. He makes sure never to miss a penalty! At this point it just seems unlikely to even think about the Golden Boot going to anyone other than Kane. Even the nearest still active player in this World Cup, a.k.a. Lukaku trails him by 2 goals and I highly doubt that Belgium would make it past Brazil.I was at Wembley with my mum in January, just before I moved to Japan, for the match when harry became Tottenham's highest ever scorer in the Premier League.

And just like in everything, the real enemy is capitalism!
The fact is, the European Leagues are taking players away from South America and Africa as soon as they show any sign of professional level talent, so the youth aren't staying in those countries to cultivate a team spirit or national identity. England Players mostly play in England, or at worst a short plane ride away in Spain. Brazil or Uraguay's players are spending most of their year half a world away.
