....and so the Brazilian wankfest begins.

Mexico clearly the better side so far.

Snooze fest

Snooze fest

Not entirely. We had the pleasure of seeing 'Three Roll' Neymar getting fouled.

 

[tommydazzle]

Neymar statistically the player who has lost the ball most in tournament so far.

 

[Nick]

Neymar gets a tap in for the pundits to wank over.

 

[Otis]

Mexico have had the ball in excellent positions on a few occasions, but instead of putting the ball wide have opted for long range wonder strikes on goal from 30 yards out.

 

[Liquid Gold]

I don't see Mexico getting back in to this.

 

[tommydazzle]

Mexico seem to miss seeing the obvious pass in great positions.

 

[Liquid Gold]

I'd love to see Doyle and Neymar on the same pitch with a league 2 ref.

 

[tommydazzle]

What a twat Neymar is - maybe a great footballer but will never be a great sportsman.

I can't stand Neymar. Such a spoiled little brat. Spent more time at this world cup inspecting the turf than anything else.

 

[Esoterica]

They should measure Neymar's speed in rpm not kph.

I can't stand Neymar. Such a spoiled little brat. Spent more time at this world cup inspecting the turf than anything else.

Totally agree, he is such a talented player but spends more time trying to con the officials than playing. His play acting is a disgrace.

 

[Moff]

Watching Brazil's play acting makes me hope that if Belgium get through, that they absolutely spank Brazil in the quarter finals.

Japan are hanging in there, but didn't Nagatomo used to be a building in Die Hard?

 

[Paul Anthony]

Belgium not having this altogether their own way are they?

 

[Liquid Gold]

Japan are hanging in there, but didn't Nagatomo used to be a building in Die Hard?

Watching itv the other day there was an advert for a film with the rock that looked exactly the same as Die Hard.

 

[Otis]

Belgium not having this altogether their own way are they?

Their shooting has been poor. Had a number of opportunities.

Hats off to Japan.

Do fear for Japan against Brazil though if they were to get through.

 

[Paul Anthony]

Well, Japan haven't read the script at all. Vertonghen not switched on at all there. When he didn't hit it first time I thought he'd bottled that.

 

[Liquid Gold]

If Courtois was a bit taller he could have kept that out...

 

[Otis]

I have got money on a Japan win, but thought they could only do it if Belgium underperformed and they are duly obliging.

 

[Covstu]

It was a lovely goal. Thought when he stuttered he flapped it !

 

[Covstu]

Fucking hell! Another one!

 

[Paul Anthony]

Wowzers, what a goal!

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Turned off for ten minutes, just come back.

Not what I was expecting!

 

[Otis]

Wow! Just wow!!!

Come on you Japanese beauties!!

 

[Nick]

See ya belgium

 

[Grendel]

Wow! Just wow!!!

Come on you Japanese beauties!!

Easier team than Colombia?

 

[I_Saw_Shaw_Score]

If Courtois was a bit taller he could have kept that out...

Haha, cheap dig he had at Pickford!

 

[I_Saw_Shaw_Score]

3-2 Belgium in extra time this if Japan don’t chill.

Japan will try for a 3rd and concede a soft one on the break

 

[Johnnythespider]

Glad England aren't playing these

 

[wingy]

Easier team than Colombia?

No I don't think so .

 

[Otis]

Easier team than Colombia?

Yes.

No-one could have envisage how poor Belgium have been.

Belgium had to underperform for Japan to win and they have.

This is not the Belgium we respect and admire at all.

And we haven't seen tomorrow's game yet either. Unless you can see into the future.

Japan had next to no expectation going into this competition.

Fair play to them, but Belgium have set up all wrong.
