The semifinal eliminated some expected teams so its a good surprise.

South America and Europe dominate football so we’re talking about the elite here.

No Asian, African or North American team has ever won a title.

Telemundo has long had US broadcast rights for the Spanish-language market.

All the color commentary is in Spanish.

English watch party looks well-attended.

Temperature for the game in Samara is in the 80s.

Here we go!

Hoping that fire alarm in the Swedes' hotel last night throws them off just a little.

England at the World Cup always reminded me of the Chicago Cubs until recently when the Cubbies finally won it.

I’m hoping England v Russia.

“Crimean War II” or “The Polonium Bowl”
