Brazil played poor against Chile… need to improve against the fast attacking Columbian side.
Peralta looks impressive
Weren’t some clownish Yanks blabbering about the game not being entertaining? Fools…
Edit: Unreal. This game is fking cruel.
robben is a tool
I don’t even know what to say. You are 3 min from going into the quarter finals and you concede 2 like that to get knocked out.
Shakespeare can’t hold a candle to this shit.
Mexico started taking it easy in the last 10 minutes. You could anticipate that a goal from Netherlands could be coming any minute.
And after the 1st goal, Mexico looked like they lost the match. Their spirits were shattered at that point and after that it was an onslaught by the Netherlands.
Anyways, it’s better for the neutrals that Netherlands went through otherwise Argentina would have it too easy in the semi-finals.
I bet there are a lot more clownish indians who don’t care about soccer, so whats your point, tool? Most of the yanks that post in this thread do like the game.
I agree with you Finkid, Mexico looked way better and in control before they scored… As much as I love Herrera for his passion, I think he messed up the strategy trying to cruise by with one goal lead. It’s a sad day in southern california…
Yup, t’was coming. Still cruel though. Argentina have some stumbling blocks enroute but the feeling grows.
It’s goona be the South American giants in the finals.
As for mobius none of them feel the need to talk garbage like how the game is ‘too low scoring’ or other half assed nonsense without having a bloody clue so i’ll say whatever the fk i want.
On another note Super Eagles take the pitch again tomo. Ahmed Musa - make it happen.
One reason I hate this sport is how 90 minute of great play can be muted by a flop.
It was a pen, theatrical but a foul inside the box makes it a pen.
Another interesting point is the Hulk disallowed goal. I think that puts to bed the conspiracy theory lovers. Brazil do get a lot of 50-50 decisions their way but it has nothing to do institutionally, It is more of a human factor where the roar of the home crowd, host factor in addition to not being the one to send Brazil out wrongly weigh heavily into the psyche of the referee.
FIFA are still corrupt cunts of course and need to go.
Yeah, there was contact, and Robben sold it like he always does. Sucks though that penalties are given for every foul in the box but oh well.
^^^ Toronto fans LOL
Only 13 degrees Centigrade expected in Porto Alegre for the match Germany vs Algeria today, comparable to the German “summer”…!
32 years ago, but still present…
they showed clips of it on MOTD last night and it really was a total disgrace. Apparently the German commentator refused to say a word for the last 20 minutes of the game in disgust.
That shame was the reason for scheduling the last matches of the group parallel…!
was it just me or did the cooling breaks in the Mexico Netherlands game really screw up the flow? The game wasn’t the best but the cooling breaks really affected my enjoyment of it for some reason.
Really not looking forward to Qatar, hopefully FIFA see sense and give 2022 to the USA instead, if so, I’m there.
