    It is a silly sport, field is too big with too many men on it, running back and forth for 90 minutes only to score a few goals and sometimes none. But I think hockey is stupid too, goal is too small with too many men on a small rink. Dont know how they fill up soccer stadiums to watch.

    goals have more meaning in football than other sports. I don't under stand how people can watch entire whole basketball games? baskets every 20 seconds when the only thing that matters is the 4th quarter. how many ways can u put a ball through a hoop? lol

    baseball is soooooo boring n slow, american football can be good when you are not forced to watch a commercial every minute. every sport has its problems lol
    but the world cup is the biggest most watched tournament in the world where the best players all come together to compete for their country.

    this game was ok but the tournament will get better and brazil is the best place for a world cup. a lot of passion n its always great when the host team does well. just enjoy fellas

    Americans have short attention spans, think of them as little kids. Even youtube videos are boring for them now, they want their 8 second vines.

    A semi-finals game or championship game... I might make a wager on and watch it. Anything else... I'd rather watch the water drain down the toilet on a flush. You get more entertainment.

    An acquired taste....Once you start to know the players and teams and understand tactics you'll like it alot more

    Also, this wasn't the best of matchups....there will be a lot of awesome games coming up

    actually if they were bored by this then there's not much hope for them, a lot of teams are gonna sit back and defend the first game, croatia actually tried to get forward

    My thoughts too.

    It is the only sport where you don't need players at all.
    It's all about joining the huge crowd together with your father, eating a hotdog, later drinking a beer and being part of the drunks making fools of themselves, occasional singing...
    Game... what game?

    I agree. Just like any sports, you have to understand it in order to enjoy it. Like others said, if you think this game is boring, wait until a one-sided game in which a team only plays defense.

    People complain about flopping in soccer, how about flopping in basketball and hockey(high stick flopping)? Flopping happens because basketball and soccer are non-contact sports. The bottom line is that players do whatever to win.

    Pretty much the most boring sport for the hype it gets. I tried to watch this game and get in to it. It's just as boring as the last time I tried.

    I guess you would love a sport with NFL rules (and tights), baseball bats and at least one hockey puck ... and at least 5 hours of commercials ... now that would be fun for you

    Soccer is and always has been a game played by a bunch of lawn fairies.
    A game well suited for young ladies and girlie men.
    Run by greedy men who look the other way at fixed matches.
    Glad this tripe only surfaces every 4 years.

    What is your daily cardio workout? Surely you run at least 3 km? It's not as though you are a wanker that hates on the talent of others, is it?

    K13 great point how is that not accurate? Some teams barely can score tds and have to settle for field goals. Soccer doesn't need all these timeouts and commercials nonstop. Football is a great sport but I don't know how you can hate on soccer because there may not be many goals scored when football needs many penalty flags to help offenses actually score. I have to say soccer, football, and basketball are all amazing to watch and play if you ask me.

    All sports are boring, until they're not.

    Lay two grand on a soccer game and watch how exciting that motherfuker becomes.
