Well, Hulk wasn't very good in the first game. I don't think he'll be missed.
I'm actually very interested to see Belgium and Russia. One of them will probably win their group and end up challenging Argentina for the semifinal spot. And Argentina didn't look that impressive, so they could go surprisingly far if they're any good.

I hope Mexico brings that energy they had in the first match, could make for a fun game to watch. Most interested in seeing what all the hype is about for Belgium.

CBC World Cup app can stream games. App itself is a bit weird, but the streaming works well.

If Lukaku is on his game then Belgium will be a very tough out in this tournament. They have top class players at basically every position. They lack experience together as a group, but have plenty of players with loads of experience at the club level. They will be very interesting to watch.

I think Mexico can cause Brazil problems, but it really depends on their attitude going into the match. If they go into it looking for a draw or damage limitation then they'll get shredded to pieces, if they go at Brazil then we may be in for a hell of a game.
That said, I dont think Mexico can go toe-to-toe with Brazil for 90 minutes.

Mexico is one of the rare teams that is not afraid of Brazil. They have beaten Brazil at all levels, most recently the 2012 Olympics. They've also beaten them at Copa America although that's been awhile.

True, but this Mexican team is very fragile.

Belgian team is cute and they'll easily win this game. Not because of their looks, but because they are that good.

Belgium isn't impressing me so far.
Real-ly slow passing.

Young team, majority of them making their debut on a stage so big, expect some nerves in the first game.

Algeria looks fairly organized. They gotta stop shooting it into row z though.
