2014 World Cup thread

[IanC]

Feel some sorrow for Chile. They have been brilliant but just not enough.

 

[Smithy7]

Most of Chile's penalties were awful though!

 

[Tyton]

Very tight game, penalties included. I'm not even mad about Julio Cesar always stepping out before the ball is kicked, most penalties were so awful that It didn't matter.

 

[Alcaraz]

Chile really bottled it in the penalty shoot-out. Looking more and more likely that Brazil will march on deep into the knock-out stages without actually playing well

 

[Alcaraz]

Probably not unfair to say that Jorge Sampoli covered more distance in 120min than some of his players

 

[lxl Ra lxl]

What are your bets on tonights games?

I hope Brasil-Chili is gonna be penalties.
And i think Colombia will win against Uruguay (3-0).

God that was an intense game! just what i hoped! I just wish Chili would've won.

They will probably win the World Cup at this rate...

Wow. What a goal

 

[IanC]

That is the goal of the tournament so far. fantastic.

 

[epic terrorist]

Go on jimmy lad

 

[Smithy7]

What a hit! So glad I put him in my fantasy team the other day!

 

[Nick Chelsea]

That is the goal of the tournament so far. fantastic.

The goal was absolute brilliance, but cannot forget that flying dutchman goal.. I'd probably agree though. What a goal, this one.

I haven't seen it mentioned yet, but has anyone seen what Suarez said in his defence?

"I lost my balance, making my body unstable and falling on top of my opponent," wrote Suarez in his defence to Fifa.

Best defence EVER! It just reminds me of an episode of TBBT:

"Why have you got a robot hand on your junk?"

"I tripped and fell"

"You tripped and fell?"

"Yes"

"***** first?"

"....yes..."

That was exactly what came to my mind when I heard his statement lol. It's so ridiculous it literally could pass for comedy.

This is why someone said that everyone keeps saying he needs help but that will only work if he admits he has a problem and comes to terms he is in the wrong. All the time he can't then any help will not be enough.

I think Mexico are going to give Holland a tough match today but lose 2-1
Costa Rica to knock out Greece 2-0.

 

[Craven]

I hope Holland don't have a hard time against Mexico, I need RVP and Robben on the score sheet to catch the lads at work in the fantasy league.

Mexico look real good this World Cup, think it will be a tight game.

Yeah I agree think it will be tight

Top three goals so far have been Rodriguez, Cahill and RVP, in that order, descending. Been a good tournament for great goals.
