Fantasy World Cup Final Live Match Chat And so it’s finally here, or at least it will be tomorrow. We have the most pointless of pointless games to get out of the way this evening as Brazil and Holland must somehow pick themselves up and face each other in the 3rd/4th place play-off. From a fantasy perspective though this one could be crucial as it is part of the final round of games.

Fantasy World Cup Live Match Chat Semi Finals And then there were four. It’s semi-final time at the World Cup and very much a South America vs Europe affair. We’ve said a sad farewell to Colombia, who received an amazing reception when they returned to Bogota. Also offski are Costa Rica, who played with so much heart and a stubborn defence throughout the tournament, while Belgium and France have also exited stage left. Our first semi-final sees hosts Brazil take on the World Cup’s Herr Consistent, Germany. Since 1950, the Germans have failed to reach at least the quarter-final stage on just one occasion and will be looking to add to their three stars by going all the way. Brazil, of course, will have home support on their side – unfortunately for them they won’...[Read More]

Fantasy World Cup Live Match Chat Quarter Finals Hello and welcome to the quarter-finals. We are moving ever closer to the biggest game in world football and while this is something we’re all looking forward to, it does mean that there are only eight games left. The four quarter-finals are spread over two days and the great thing is that these two days are Friday & Saturday, so send the significant other away for the weekend (it doesn’t matter where), get the fridge fully stocked with your favourite tipple, sit back and relax! First up is the clash between European heavyweights Germany & France who get on well these days, but this hasn’t always been the case (don’t mention the ‘you know what’!). The Germans had a blitzkrieg start to their campaign as they demolished Portugal but ...[Read More]

Fantasy World Cup Live Match Chat Last 16, Day 4   Welcome to the last 16 of the World cup – or the round of 16 as some choose to call it, or the first knockout stage. In fact, call it what you want – either way, it’s sudden death time – lose and you go home, outta here, offski and this will likely mean that your coach resigns or gets the chop or in England’s case receives a pat on the back and a “bad luck old chap”. The final day of the round sees the Argies back on display as they attempt to neutralise the Swiss – that shouldn’t be tricky. However, with the likes of di Maria and Higuain quiet so far and Aguero injured (obviously), it’s been down to little Leo to carry the Argies through the group. Easy then, mark Messi out ...[Read More]

Monday is Europe vs Africa day. France vs Nigeria get’s us going – hopefully goals is the order of the day and a game akin to Nigeria’s 3-2 loss to Argentina will do very nicely, thanks lads. The evening gives us another viewing of ze Germans as zey take on ze plucky, mucky, lucky (delete as per your per...[Read More]

Fantasy World Cup Live Match Chat Last 16, Day 2 Welcome to the last 16 of the World cup – or the round of 16 as some choose to call it, or the first knockout stage. In fact, call it what you want – either way, it’s sudden death time – lose and you go home, outta here, offski and this will likely mean that your coach resigns or gets the chop or in England’s case receives a pat on the back and a “bad luck old chap”. Sunday sees LVG’s Netherlands take on the bandits of Mexico in a clash which sees the great entertainers try to prise through a stubborn and tight defence. The late game is your chance to surprise your partner – turn off the telly and make their day with the comment, “i think i need a break from the World Cup darling, l...[Read More]

Fantasy World Cup Live Match Day 15 It’s hard to believe that the group stages come to an end today! We’ve had a great two weeks of football and those of us under the age of 40 will probably agree that at this stage it is the best World Cup which we remember. We’ve already said goodbye to England, adios to Spain and arrivederci to Italy and today we could conceivably be saying adeus to Portugal…oh and let’s not forget that Luis Suarez has once more upset the holy joes!! First up today is Group G as the US face Germany while Portugal square up to Ghana. A draw between the Germans and the Yanks will see both qualify for the next round and word on the street is that Angela and Obama have had a natter on the blower and everything has been arranged, this would see the Germans top the grou...[Read More]

Fantasy World Cup Live Match Day 14 This evening sees the culmination of Groups E & F. It’s Group F to kick us off as Argentina meet Nigeria – Argentina have already qualified without being anywhere near their best, but a win for Nigeria would see the Africans secure top spot. However, should Nigeria lose and Iran can beat Bosnia then it’s all down to goal difference as to who goes through with the Argies. The late night matches in Group E should also provide plenty of excitement and tension. The French have pretty much qualified – only an unlikely last game disaster and heavy defeat would see les Frogs eliminated. The more likely battle is for the other qualification place with both Ecuador and the Swiss battling to proceed – Ecuador currently hold the po...[Read More]

Fantasy World Cup Live Match Chat Day 13 When Group C kicks off we are in for a treat with the Uruguay vs Italy game. Uruguay finds themselves in a must win situation, whereas Italy will be happy with a point to advance. Let’s see if Luis Suarez can produce magic against real defenders or if the most interesting man in the world Pirlo will even break a sweat. Considering the teams this promises to be an absolute can’t miss game. In the other Group C match up we have the eliminated Costa Rica…sorry I meant England vs the surprising “Pura Vida” squad. One suspects that even the mothers and girlfriends (or boyfriends) of the players will be glued to the screen watching the other group game.

Fantasy World Cup Live Match Chat Day 12 Australia play Spain in the dead rubber of dead rubbers at 5pm. Both teams have been eliminated already – Australia unluckily, Spain disgracefully. How they both approach the game is anybody’s guess and we could be n for a 5-5 just as easily as a 0-0. In the same group Holland face Chile and with both having qualified we may have a similar scenario here but hopefully each will be attempting to win in the hope of avoiding Brazil in the next round but even that may be folly depending on the results later. Group A concludes at 9pm. Cameroon are the only team out of it and they face Brazil while the other two face each other in what may be a winner takes all tie as Crotia play Mexico. This one will be a cracker as it is effectively knock out...[Read More]

Fantasy World Cup Live Match Chat Day 11   Happy Sunday to you all! Belgium and Russia kick us off at 5pm today with Lukaku hoping to atone for his no show in stage 1. Well ok, he showed up, but he did pretty much bugger all and disappointed many who had him as a last resort captaincy option. Hopefully he can produce in this one and announce himself on the world stage. Either way, and even if he notches a hat trick, we imagine Jose will be sat at home saying ‘meh, bring me Costa’. Hazard and KDB will hold many a hope here also and it will be interesting to see if Belgium can get into their stride as they looked a little burdened in the opener, perhaps with the weight of expectation but if they can it would be thrilling to see a ‘smaller nation’ finally threaten...[Read More]
