cosmic4z Posted July 11, 2018 I'm not usually bothered with football; but this World Cup, and England's journey through it, has peaked my interest. We (what an odd way of looking at it, to say 'we', when I was never there, never on the pitch) just lost in the semi-final to Croatia. So sad. Defeat... Â Still, I think the England team can be proud of their performance, and look to grow from the experience. Someone once said; victory isn't so much in the winning, it's in how you respond to (learn from) defeat. Â Anyone else been watching the World Cup? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted July 11, 2018 I don't watch such stuff but it was in headline news I looked at before coming to TDB. Â 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yinja Posted July 13, 2018 I saw some of it.. Always appreciate a game when the stake is high and the impossible happendes. I also always cheer for the underdog... for a very understandable reason to me i just want to see them win against all odds  (other than that i find soccer super boring. perhaps because im not very involved) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose as with any sport, a massive part of it is psychological / mental attitude. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
