Watched it. I hate Sergio Ramos. Mandzukic with a crazy goal. Ronaldo caps off an incredible year. Wish Buffon could have won it.

Anyone going to stay up late and watch the USA vs Venezuela double header?

The men's team plays at 10 ET

The u20's play at 2 ET in the quarterfinals. This is the furthest the u20's have ever been at the world cup.

terrible simulation by Sergio Ramos to get cuadrado sent off

Amazing article about Pulisic's rise to stardom.

It's cool to see that USSF made futsol mandatory in the development leagues. I truly think we will be a consistent world power on the same level as Spain, Germany, etc. It's a question of when, not if. But I guess we've been saying that for 30 years.

Looks like Everton has their goalkeeper for next season: http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/40258852

Everton's opening stretch is brutal. The first game at home against Stoke isn't too bad. It's the next 4 after that: @ Manchester City, @ Chelsea, vs. Spurs, @ Manchester United.

I'll post when all the derbies are later tonight or sometime tomorrow.

We probably could use a new thread for the upcoming season.

I say we do two separate ones. One Premier League specific, one everything else.
