World Cup Day 4 Predictions: Group E and Germany vs Mexico
Germany vs Mexico is the talk of the town for Day 4 at the World Cup. But don’t sleep on Brazil vs Switzerland.

Joachim Low Shows You What Not To Do In Public
Joachim Low is a very well respected and accomplished manager who has had a lot of success, with winning the 2014 World Cup as his crowning achievement.
