Absolutely terrible game to watch too. Belgium is so predictable that you know Argentina is going to win the game when its 75th minute after they have used all their changes, turn to route one football and lump the ball forward. Their players can't even stay onside for any of their promising attacks.
Think De Bryune has been Belgium most consistent player, great potential that lad cant believe Chelsea sold him.
I agree. A lot of people are thinking how good he is because all the subs he made produced, but he had been underwhelming ever since I started watching Belgium this World Cup. His tactics are plain and has a strange obsession with Chadli.Imo think the Belgian FA screwed it up by appointing Marc Wilmots ... He is not good enough to manage such a talented group of players
Ivory Coast vs JapanAnyone knows how many teams got back from a 1-0 or more to win the game this world cup?
I can only remember Holland doing that against Spain, Australia and Mexico.

Neymar out of the World Cup. Fractured Vertebrae
People keep telling me this is the best World Cup ever but I don't see it. Another dull game that is probably gonna be decided by 1 goal or in the extra times.
I understand but just few pages back people were telling me that the knockout stages are great. I might just be way more grumpy than normal people because it's facking 5am in the morning here and I'm watching a snoozefest - and for the whole playoffs! Doesn't help at all when there is extra time and I have stay up even longer...group stages were fantastic, knock-out stages less so but that is expected when the games are straight knock-outs. Both teams have something to lose
**** Neymar tbh. Brazil from the start are playing like typical Scolari team - high intensity and attacking every ball on the edge of the foul. Opponents respond appropriately and every game turns into open war. Brazil brought it on themselves. Neymar himself hit Modric in the face the very first game, and now media paint him a victim and complain that such great talent is being hunted. No, he's hunted because he's a ****.

It's the Neymar who Cried Wolf. Fall over crying every time you're touched and my sympathy for you when you get injured is drastically reduced. Don't think I'm in the minority either.
I feel for the young lad because he was one of the players of the tournament so far and this is his world cup. But i don't feel for Brazil on the whole, they have got away with challenge after challenge and are quite physical themselves.
