Welcome to the Total Soccer Show World Cup daily.

On this show, we're looking back on Sunday's four games in which Germany were in heaven when they scored seven.

Holland and Japan had impressive forces in the Battle of the Dark Horses.

Ivory Coast fans were able to rejoice when they beat South America's hipster choice.

And Tunisia found it hard to proceed in their big match with Sweden.

My name's Ryan Bailey.

Joining me today from our Los Angeles headquarters.

Hi, Taylor Rockwell.

Hello, Ryan Bailey.

It was a fun day today.

Four games and 19 goals, I think, by my quick count. Not a bad. Not a bad rate of return. Not a bad rate of return at all for a World Cup day. Graham Ruffin, how are you? I'm very well. I echo Taylor's sentiment. Interesting games. Germany scoring seven in a World Cup. Do we think Brazilians watching that got some sort of World Cup PTSD? I feel okay. I'm very disappointed. It speaks to the very poor quality of this expanded tournament. If a German team can beat a team 7-1, like what are we doing here? What's the point? What's the point in any of this? I did mean to speak to you, Graham, about the... The time you just heard was everyone in Brazil turning off the last. The millions that were there. No, don't go, Joao. Graham, it's a Sunday. Typically, on a Sunday, you watch between 17 and 24 games. So how has it been this vast reduction watching only four today? Yeah, I mean, it's been nice and easy, right? Nice and easy. I actually didn't even

watch all four games today.

I did not watch

the Sweden, Tunisia game, which seemed to be a bit of a banger from what was going in of what saw of it, as the goals were going in. So I look forward to hearing from these two fine gentlemen who I think are Sweden and Tunisia experts. Very much so. Including but not limited to Mr. Joe Lowry. Hi, Joe.

Hey, Ryan. It's nice to see Mr. Joe Lowry. Hi, Joe.

Hey, Ryan. It's nice to see you. It's nice to be with you like I haven't seen you and been with you all day. You too as well. I need folks in there to know that Graham did not watch a Sweden game because he hates what flat pack furniture. That's what it's right. If he has to build it himself, listener, he's not for it.

Yeah, what I'm paying you for?

That's part of the price.

Stop, stop short changing me.

You personally, right?

Yeah. If he has to build it himself, listener, he's not for it. Yeah, what I'm paying you for? That's part of the price. Stop, stop changing me. You personally, right? Stop it, stop it, Brian.
