2014 FIFA World Cup - Brazil

[AnthonyD1993]

1-0 Brazil.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

What was that defender doing?!, Silva takes advantage, been all Brazil so far!

 

[MoLiEG]

Ugh, Brazil is up already

Me too, but honestly I still consider this tournament a success for them especially on the disaster of 2010.

Yes it was, I didn't expect a lot from them. It was a pleasant surprise

 

[C-ZETA]

Oh dear. This World Cup is starting to collapse.

 

[Touring Mars]

Fantastic atmosphere, and the early goal should make for an exciting game...

Kind of want Brazil to win because the home support is so amazing...

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Silva, Hulk and Neymar on yellow cards so they need to be careful tonight, if they get a yellow in this game then they are out of the semi v Germany should they get there, Colombia also have three players on yellows...

 

[Akira AC]

They are pushing hard on this one.


Pretty strong contact for ball possession.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

I have a feeling that Brazil will score its second goal soon with how they are playing.

 

[Akira AC]

Indeed, Colombia's formation will not work as it is.

They need to switch and be more calm.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Brilliant start to the game!

 

[CinnamonOD]

Come on Colombia!!!

 

[Stotty]

What a fantastic game of football.

 

[Akira AC]

Well, damn.


Referee, as in this WC, has been a joke, and it doesn't help that Brazil is starting to get dirty on them.

 

[JogoAsobi]

Nice opening move by Thiago Silva!

 

[Akira AC]

Brazil, you gonna get yourself draw.

 

[Pagey279]

If the ref isn't careful there could be some fisticuffs at some point, it's getting pretty fiery out there.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

That was the best half of Football I've ever seen!

 

[JogoAsobi]

Pace was pretty incredible, hope they still have legs left for 2nd half.

 

[Wiegert]

Too much stop-starting at the end of the first half. Surprised it didn't result in any cards.

Bloody good game aside from that. Still hope Colombia come out stronger after HT.

 

[AlvaroF]

Now Brazil is finally playing the way they should since always. Great piece of football

 

[Stotty]

Fantastic game, but the ref needs to hand a card or 2 out early on, or he's gonna lose this one.

That was the best half of Football I've ever seen!

Istanbul, 2005, 2nd half

 

[AlvaroF]

Germany-Algeria (it was the whole game but still)

 

[Akira AC]

This game is getting more and more dirty, from both Colombian and Brazilian sides.


Sometimes fouls get recognized, sometimes they don't, sometimes you have yellow card situations and sometimes nothing happens, it could develop in a nasty way for the second half.


Having said that, Colombia needs to be more aggressive, they are getting themselves corned while Brazil leave some spaces, they are playing it right however it really anoys me that Neimar is just throwing himself into the ground because of nothing, that's not good football that's just vulturing free kicks.

Istanbul, 2005, 2nd half

Selhurst Park. 2014. Last 13 minutes.

Anyway, this has been alright, apart from Brazil winning.
But at least they're showing some class now. Still performed way too poorly to deserve to win it all, but the media corps won't care if they win this game.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Fantastic game, but the ref needs to hand a card or 2 out early on, or he's gonna lose this one.



Istanbul, 2005, 2nd half

Not for me mate!

 

[MXH]

Well played by Brazil, so far. Really like their agressive (albeit dirty - same goes for Colombia) approach. However, I'll be suprised if someone won't find themselves on the bench during the semi-finals.

 

[Akira AC]

Oh look, now Colombia is throwing itself to the ground.

 

[Stotty]

Too many fouls... spoiling the game

 

[Stotty]

Ref is missing some horrendous tackles... Silva should have been carded for that.

 

[Akira AC]

God dammit Colombia, stop playing with the ball and strike already.

They have now the spaces, but they need to stop :censored:ing around in the opposite area and shoot already.
