That Brandt looked dangerous after coming on. Perhaps, Draxler should have been subbed off earlier. This is one of the best games I've watched so far in this world cup. Germany's electrifying football couldn't break the resilient Mexicans

These defending champions and their ill luck in their opening matches. From France to Italy to Spain now Germany. It's starting to look like a pattern.
Argentina was humiliated by Cameroon in the opening match at Italia '90. It is not easy to be a defending champ

Defending Champion curse hit Germany...

Since 2002 World Cup Defending Champions has been losing their opening match and dumped out of the group stage save Brazil in 2006.

France lost to Senegal in 2002 and couldn't get past the group stage

Italy lost in 2010 and couldn't get past the group stage

Spain lost in 2014 and couldn't get past the group stage

Germany just lost in 2018 but will they get past the group stage?

You know nothing

Argentina can't beat Croatia...

I know the unpredictability of football but if the Croatia I saw yesterday plays with Argentina, it's a sure win for the Argentines. I did not see any spectacular thing Croatia played, Headless chickens were just lazy and clumsy to have lost to them. The Argentines are too focused and tactical to lose to this same Croatians...

But what do I know....

With just a game you have already picked them as the winner. Many teams would step up their games in their next matches.

Its obvious you saw the difference in a disciplined defense/team (Mexico, Iceland) and an indiscipline defense/team (Nigeria). The defense will make the difference when the team midfielders and attackers are not having a good day. And the most of all is the mentality. Nigeria's team lack tactical discipline (as usual) and the mentality of a team with a motive to win a match. Their energy level from kick-off to the end of the match show that. They lost the match even before kickoff.

And look at Germany. See why they call them the "German Machine". You know that until the Ref blow the whistle, they will continue to come at the opponent and you are damn sure a goal is likely. It's not coincidental that the Germans are known for building the most reliable machines. It's a mentality thing. Obviously, Nigerian players lack that as most Nigerians. Commitment. I rather have a committed team with positive energy level and mentality of a winner than have one with none of these attributes.

Jerome Boateng is way past his sell-by date. He looks overweight, unfit and grossly immobile....mince meat for any speedy top 9. The German central defence is quite frankly..... shambolic.

Where are those people shouting that Brandt shouldn't have been taken ahead of Sane? That guy is a fantastic player. Sane wouldn't have made any difference!!!

They're quick to make baseless comparisons in times like this. Like Germany and Nigeria had ever once been on the same level in terms of quality style of play.

Unlike Nigeria the Germans lost honorably. The game could have been 5-1 if not for Mexican strong defence that were able to withstand nonstop German pressure.

Only God knows how much was lost on Germany today. Out of every 100 that bet I doubt up to 5 give it to Mexico to win.
