The Open Thread/Daily Merengue is a place where you can discuss anything and everything related to football. Feel free to discuss the topics presented here, or start your very own discussions! The Open thread will be posted every day by one of the mods you’d absolutely have a World Cup night with: Valyrian Steel, Felipejack, Kung_Fu_Zizou (AKA KFZ), Juninho and, of course... yours truly.

Did you Watch the Portugal-Uruguay Match?

Interesting game, that one. Fede was nowhere near his best, though that carry and pass about 20’ from time was a nice touch. What else was weird... Well, Ronaldo celebrated a goal he never scored, as he didn’t make any contact with the ball following Bruno’s cross. Who were you rooting for and what did you think of the game?

So... What will YOU be Watching Today?

• Ecuador vs. Senegal
• Netherlands vs Qatar (for the first time ever, btw)
• Iran vs. United States
• Wales vs. England

Have a nice day ladies and gents. May the Madridismo be with you.
