City hasn't won the CL either.
If the WC was played in league format it would be even less surprises.
And still a minor team hasn't won the WC yet
I bloody love the World Cup

I love it , the upsets , the unpredictably, make’s it special.
It is all about national pride and playing for your nation and giving them the emotional impact that no other game can.

Of course, but if you look at the chance of that happening in the world cup, the odds are much lower than the UCL.
This is only the 22nd ever world cup and only the 7th that has the expanded '32' team format. If it was played yearly like the UCL is we would've seen an underdog go on to win it.
It's turning out to be a special World Cup and knockouts still to come.
Mr. Miyagi motivated them
Love it
The national pride and sense of belonging is something no club football can ever provide IMHO
it's been an incredible tournament, no debate about that. I will actually miss all those games during the day once it's over. club football and CL simply can't compete with this. unlike CL quarters, I don't feel like I'm simply watching someone just doing their job and what he's paid for. it's going to be crazy in here on the day we play Japan. you don't get that with club football.
I just love their fans so much
I hope they don't mess up the format with the 48 teams. The group stages this year have been lit.
It's the fecking best.
There is nothing... NOTHING like it

If you are not entertained, if this is not why you are here, then stop watching football.
It may be hosted in the most controversial of circumstances but it certainly has been the most entertaining on the pitch. Loving it

Great WC. Very exciting. Lacks a couple of really great sides but it's been the best world cup since 98.
The best World Cup of my lifetime.
This! It's been brilliant if you just concentrate on the football, it's had a it all.
Never seen so many underdogs trump the strong nations.
World Cup. Best football. It’s Christmas X 4. I’m 43 and I turn into 7 years old (Mexico 86). This World Cup is amazing.
I love United but club football is like back to normal daily life in times of crisis.

Been amazing for the underdogs. I've really enjoyed it.
Shit tinpot competition anyway
Superb World Cup so far.
I just started getting into it
This is one of the worst world cups ever. Quarters are big disappointment. Semis are a joke.
God-tier competition
Didn't watch any of the games then?
Watched all of them.
Brazil vs Netherlands, and Portugal vs England should have been semis. Just like God doesn't exist, football Gods don't exist either so we have terrible semis ahead of us.
So because your didn't like the results you didn't like the games?
You are very bright. You got it.
Surprised by the comments in here. Finding it disappointing. Today’s game between france and England was one of the few high quality, entertaining matches. Couple that with all the controversy and it’s not tickled my fancy, since we’re all giving our opinions
3 classics in this round imo.
Netherlands are dirty bastards and didn't deserve to draw against Ecuador. Ugly side playing two neuron football style. Bullying players in their path to kick penalties.
I feel like this is the WC at it's zenith. This will live in people's memories (peak social media.) Enjoy this folks. The next one will be bloated, we'll be recovering from a recession and the I don't think the internet will be as fun.

Worth it.
Will be sad to see it go but has to end.
How can anyone not love this game?
