Football is such a great game, I really enjoyed the Austria v Algeria game :)

Afternoon all,
It was a tough night for Ivory Coast, Sweden and Ecuador, but never mind!
Move over the free-flowing attacking football of last night. Now it's time for a nervous and inconsistent display that satisfies absolutely no-one but the Scots.
Will you be watching England tonight? What sort of England will we get? Will DR Congo get crushed as England rampage into the last-16 or will they sidestep a sputtering England performance and immortalise themselves at the expense of the Three Lions? Or instead will we get something lukewarm and in between? Perhaps an dismal England performance with a set piece goal that does just enough to put us into the last-16 against Mexico? Yeah, that's what I thought!
5pm (BST): England (@Tony60 and @Ainger13) v DR Congo (@bri1959)
9pm (BST): Belgium (@Richard_Scope) v Senegal (@Geoffers58)
1am (BST): USA (@Shar17on) v Bosnia and Herzegovina (@LilMissOops and @Smartbutcasual80)
Who have you got?

C'mon, you beautiful Belgians!

Hello :) I think England will win but I hope not as I was completely turned off by their dire performance against Ghana and their tv interviews before games and tournaments were they talk a good game and fail to deliver every time. Iโm supporting Congo tonight :)
Iโd really like Senegal to win but I think they will narrowly lose to Belgium
And I think Bosnia will beat USA. I just feel Bosniaโs negative style will suck the enthusiasm out of USA

Hopes: wins for England, Senegal, B&H
Predictions: the opposite of all of those 3 !
If England play badly again tonight, then I will probably switch allegiance half way through and start supporting DRC to win anyway! I can be a very fickle fan. ๐

Shocking @Scooby222! ๐ฎ
You're not supposed to enjoy England, you're supposed to endure them! For some reasonโฆ ๐

I've got Bosnia in a sweepstake, so I'll be routing for them to completely smother the US and grind out a horrible, ugly win.

I reckon Senegal might have this one I'm afraid!

Oh, believe me, over the years I've done a lot of enduring! ๐

Switched allegiances yet? ๐

Is this going to be a DR Congo win? It could easily have been two goals at half time.

This was one of my favourite games so far!

I'm still holding out hope England will recover, they're looking a bit more energetic this half at least!

Finally feels like they're starting to believe they have a chance, nice goal finally

Iโm sorry for Congo, I think England are very fortunate to get through

Yeah I always get a bit sad for whoever doesn't win, I'm glad England did but the first half especially it didn't feel like we deserved it.

I think England were fortunate to get through as well.
We now have the agony of having to watch them again.

Almost switched after the first 20 minutes, gritted my teeth, and stayed with England. That was a hard watch for England fans, though! Phew!
Oh no, we now have to watch them against Mexico at their home stadium next, I will need valium before that one! ๐ฉ
