New nickname for the Dutch football team: "De blauwballen"

Symbology/scaling is plain wrong, and why not grid to fill in the nulls? Fail.

Its not view count but size of the article. It probably contains a lot of pictures and graphics. The most viewed German Wikipedia articles are WikiLeaks, Two and a half men, Hamburg (City in Germany) and Germany.

How could you improve it?

Cristiano*. I'm biased because I'm Portuguese, but this means very little when considering the teams Argentina as had throughout the years comparing to ours.

Regular people can choose not to pay taxes until tax day.

It's not my design...

So, do it.

I like it too but it could be improved.

Congrats to the Argentines! A cup well deserved. Messi got his first (and last) world cup.

Collapse of communism moment

The nation, not the players. British media somehow seems to think that England "surely will and deserve to be up there", but time and again reality hits them when yet another cup is over and England has traveled home a week or two before the final.

Some places in the contiguous US get over 300” of snow, yet the color bar doesn’t accommodate for this at all.

Euros sure was close to a miracle. Be real, England/british is systematically arrogant. Hyping up everything with a UK-passport (and English) and playing in EPL, and talking down any equally great player who are not English. Or imagine a English player doing rather well, but are sadly not doing it in EPL are totally ignored...

It’s meant to be an enjoyable visual representation. And it is easy to read if not the most efficient way to present. I like it. This is dataisbeautiful after all. Not datisefficient.

Damn, I always love snow but we never get enough here. I wouldn't want to move and sacrifice having coastal area just for snow though

40-90 are basically the same color. So many maps i see here recently have bad color gradients....why? The data is supposed to be beautiful.

They are a few good players that are being hyped into insanity because of their passport (Kane is a great example of that). Just as any similarly good player are discredited because they are not british, playing in EPL.

It's also interesting that the expectation (that you put forward) for such a team is semi-finals in a World Cup. It was a wonder (esp. with Southgate) that they got to the last EC-final. A semi (in WC) for England is possible but surely not where they realistically is going to be.

There it is, your true colors are showing. You don’t actually care about your fellow humans.

Bookmakers don't care about strength of teams, but about money bet on each side. If you see 5:1 odds for team A against team B, chances are team B has 5x more money bet on it already. Apparently Croatia had less bets as a percentage of all remaining teams after the game with Japan.

Great job!

I wish the final Argentinian logo had a 3rd star on top.
