The STEEM FIFA Fantasy League - Round 2 Day 5
What an amazing game Germany vs Sweden was, although I was kind of hoping for Germany not to win since I don't really like their team this year and they had benched Özil who's one of my favorites. They delivered with a last minute goal. Things are going to get interesting next gameweek as they have to win against South Korea and Sweden has to lose against Mexico.
There's been an astounding amount of penalties this year with the addition of Video Assistant Referee's, does it mean that so many penalties should have taken place in the past but haven't?

Mehn this is tough, even @acidyo isnt making top 20. Sure the world cup took us all by storm. You never know what to expect in soccer.
Whoow second already!
Indeed Germany did a real Houdini escape!
intersecting Fifa once again. nothing can beat football in the world...the thing which disappointed me is macey's performance.
I am on top 10 !!!
Very great games all of these were. In South Korea vs Mexico , I loved Son heung min's consolation goal curled into the top corner. Belgium won pretty easily due to their teams brilliance. The thing that wasn't one sided was Germany vs Sweden. What a game. Emotion filled and very thrilling. I chew all my nails hoping that Germany win. In the end what a sniper shot by the Madridista toni Kroos. Splendid goal. Put Germany back in the tournament. Lovely game. Thanks for sharing the updates @acidyo.😆😆😆😘😙😙😌😋😏😚😚😹🔙🔙🔙🔙
@acidyo Germany needs an octopus paul again . In order to find the results before the match
This world cup really show that it doesn't matter how famous or generally successful your team or your nation is or has been. I really like how some "underdogs" are surprisingly successful while well-established teams struggle.
Grant was lucky to have score that last minute goal to keep their hope in the world cup alive. The game was very entertaining both team really played well @acidyo
Do you like footbal game ? I have very interest in FIFA cup.
Looks like you are enjoying FIFA :)
I'll regret not having chosen Harry Kane as captain. I decided to keep Meunier as captain because of his assist.
That being said this day has been bittersweet for my team, Kane scored and Trippier made an assist, however I just realised I forgot to bring Inui from the bench and I will be losing at least 5 points...
