+1000. All true American patriots were rooting for Croatia today. Any American rooting for Russia is an anti-American POS and should be immediately deported with their entire family.
Relieved. I want a Croatia - France final.
Drumph and his deplorable fan base are inconsolable and in tears.
On this, we agree wrote:

Meh. I was rooting for Croatia, too, but it was really cool to see a home town underdog hang that tough for this long. We watch sports to escape politics, remember? :-)

Sports IS politics. For a teacher you sure no very little about history and the world.
With the whole Croatia team getting exhausted, England should get into the final.
Belgium vs England, calling it now.

El Keniano,
I've been crying for my ARgentina.
I think these four teams are very well balanced and an England/Belgium final is not out of the realms of possibility.
I believe anyone can beat anyone.
However it goes, I'll be fine. As they say, I have no dog in this fight.
I still can't comprehend the fact that Brazil lost.
Anything is possible, but I can't see Belgium beating France. I am hoping for an England-France final ...that would be epic. They have been at each other ever since the Norman invasion of England in 1066.

We'll they're wrong. The Congolese dialect that he speaks is Lingala which is not a "Swahili dialect".
Good lord. Here is an interview with Lukaku stating that he speaks a Swahili variant of Congolese... AN INTERVIEW.
"English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch and a Swahili variant of Congolese are all spoken with fluency by the 19-year-old. He also understands German too, just for good measure."

Swahili, in its purest, standardised form, is officially recognised as a national language in Tanzania and Kenya (alongside English) where it is, more or less, spoken by the entire populations of those two countries. It is also vastly spoken and understood to, varying degrees, through large swathes of Eastern and Central Africa (manifesting in several variants and dialects much like you have standard German, Bavarian German and Swiss German all being the same language). So in addition to Kenya and Tanzania, Swahili is also spoken in parts of Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, South Sudan, Somalia, the Comoros Islands, Mozambique and, relevant to this discussion, Eastern Congo where Romelu Lukaku has his roots.
The Democratic Republic of the Congo is a huge country formerly colonised by Belgium where French is the only official language. Hundreds of tribal languages are spoken, but two African languages are lingua franca used by people from different tribes to communicate and trade with each other. In the west of the country where the capital Kinshasa is, they use Lingala. In the mineral rich east around cities like Lubumbashi and Goma, they use Swahili (a Congolese variant that sounds crude, unrefined and rural to Tanzanians and Kenyans educated in the standard form of Swahili). There, you have it.
Croatia - France FTW!

Especially considering Russia, along with Saudi Arabia, were the lowest ranked teams in this tournament. No one gave them a chance before the tournament.

I hear you NativeSon. But I fear we'll never hear the end of it if England wins. They've never let anyone forget about 1966. I'll be happy for the other three to win.
