World Cup Day 6: Open Thread

Today's schedule:

Belgium v Algeria, 12pm EST (ESPN), Group H, Belo Horizonte
Brazil v Mexico, 3pm EST (ESPN), Group A, Fortaleza
Russia v South Korea, 6pm EST (ESPN), Group H, Cuiaba

City players in action: Vincent Kompany for Belgium and (hopefully) Ferny for Brazil. 
Former City players: Van Buyten for Belgium, Maicon for Brazil.

It'll be interesting to see how everyone's dark horse pick, Belgium, performs on the big stage, how Brazil responds to an underwhelming opening match, and if anyone will pull a John Brooks today.

Comment away...
