Belgium is going strong. Meymar crying. Germany up to the task with superb last minute goal.

But who is the early MVP? It's the Argentinian Fernando Fiore.

A perfect balance of serious and funny, this guy is killing it anchoring the night show. People who don't even like soccer find him entertaining enough to keep them interested. And he is even liking and replying to my tweets

I think a South or Central American team will win it this year...I'm looking at Mexico or Argentina to take the cup...

Germany down 2-0 to So. Korea with about 8 minutes stoppage

Hard to believe but Germany, the same team (sorta) that steam rollered over Brasil four years ago failed to qualify for the round of 16 for first time since 1954. While too bad for Germany, Sweden's been tough, they deserve to advance.

The second loss for Germany, I like that, they came into the beginning matches thinking they would sweep everyone...

Argentina 2 France 1 . Argentina just went up 2-1 in the 48th minute

 

[Wade]

2-2 , out of nowhere goal by France. France should have had a penalty shot about 4 minutes ago on a real boneheaded asleep at the wheel play by Argentina but they got away with it and surprisingly France didn't contest it

 

[Wade]

3-2 France, Argentina is playing very poorly imho
