Brazil 2014. The World Cup thread

Bloody hell, a cricket score!

Made my lad go to bed at half time as he has a big charity event tomorrow – he’s going to hate me when he sees the score in the morning!

Spain can still win the WC. Probably be second in the group…y’know…goal difference.

The Spanish bench is looking very Enduro with that yellow kit.

I agree, which is probably the reason no one has said that.

A lot of the referees see to think that’s the case. So often a foul is given and when it’s not there’s endless bitching about it

.

If that had gone in from Robben…we could close goal of the tournament. Extraordinary game.

Jamie – Freeloader! But we still like him

aye was just saying that. See how Chile look tonight but could be worth a bet at spain -2 or something along those lines.

Great goalie….oh, wait a minute.

Bloody hell Robben that was some strike.

Wow wonder whats changed so much in 4 years……..

Yeah, I see what you mean.

🙄

Oh Torres…

I think we’re going to be hearing “it’s not just the defeat, it’s the manner of the defeat” quite a bit. 🙂

Stunning sensational speechless

tonight. the spain/netherlands rematch will be a stale cagey affair after the hype, skip it, go to the pub and settle down to watch Chile v Socceroos at 11. /tipoftheday

I’m looking forward to hearing from soobalias…

Well. All I can say is MORE PLEASE!

…which probably won’t be the case as next game I am watching is Greece tomorrow with extended family.

Fanks for that Rio…

Was the licence feel spent on that???

What a great game for neutrals!!!

It had everything…

…apart from the razor sharp insight of Andy Townsend.

you are Andy Townsend and I claim my £5

😆

He really is terrible

His insights, even by the standards of a footballer, are[hansen voice] DIABOLOICAL

Ive never seen a football game in my puff and thats not likely to be changing, But Ive got Brazil in the sweep. What are my chances?

[/townsend]what he’s done there, is pass the ball to Robben. Robben has outrun the defender and scored. That’s what he’s done.[/townsend]

Hey I said it would be a proper game but I wasn’t expecting that!!

Robin van traitorous c###’ts goal was amazing but Robbens one around the flailing keeper was unbelievable!

Not too clever IMO.

An Arsenal fan speaks 🙂

see how Brazil look in the next game. But they were pretty average last night.

Brazil = an average team with a few world class players.

though I do think van persie fouled casillas, he made not attempt to play the ball and just jumped into him.

My kids love having dual nationality, at least their Dutch side gives them some kind of chance of winning something in football!

Since I heard Rio Ferdinand called ‘bacon lips’ I can’t help laughing every time I see him!

Brazil = an average team with a few world class players.

So are the Dutch to be fair! Couple of journeyman Premier League pros (Vlaar and de Guzman) alongside Robben and RVP. Spain fell to pieces!

probably was a foul. But balanced out by Spain’s dodgy penalty so eachy peachy!

I dunno really…felt the penalty was soft, but I’ll go with the panel on them. They reckoned it was a penalty and that Casillas was fouled…

…”in today’s game…”

Hmmm

though the spanish were all over the place second half, ragged or what!

Meh… Castillas was no more trying to get the ball than RVP was, he’d massively misjudged and flailed in the hope that he’d get a free kick. Usually it works too.

Not looking good for the socceroos…

never was tbh

They are not getting out of this group.

or are they…

… well no, probably not but still.

i did wonder about editing but they are still out
