Great goal, Countinho. Absolutely superb.

That's not a bad start

As soon as he shaped to hit that you knew it was in! Massive swerve, amazing

Terry Gibson's perm · Jun 17, 2018

Is neymars dad the team manager as he takes all the set pieces and rarely passes I don’t think there are many more dislikable blokes in football

Great goal but Brazil look vulnerable at the back even against a mediocre Switzerland. Shaqiri is a fat c**t.

Paul Anthony · Jun 17, 2018

Brazil are pretty bad at the back. Nobody defended that corner...

SkyBlueSoul · Jun 17, 2018

Great header but shouldn’t be unmarked 6 yards out

Awful defending at any level.

Covstu · Jun 17, 2018

Can’t believe they are claiming that should be struck off. Poor defending

Earlsdon_Skyblue1 · Jun 17, 2018

Looks like Suarez has given his caravan to Neymar!

Paul Anthony · Jun 17, 2018

Some of those Swiss players seem to have taken a leaf out of Doyle's book. Some pretty cheeky fouls going on.

Terry Gibson's perm · Jun 17, 2018

Brazil are bad at the back but sideshowbob sat left back will still get into the team of the tournament he is like international footballs akinfenwa

Brazil making the most of it

You could argue that one all night!

Well yeah, But the amount of little pull backs and arms up in the midfield. Classic way to disrupt teams.

fernandopartridge · Jun 17, 2018

Not a penalty. Annoys me so much when a player, if they stay on their feet, has a gilt edged chance but prefers to fall over and look for the pen. Not a likeable Brazil side is it?

Paul Anthony · Jun 17, 2018

Neymar has been very poor. Almost always too selfish with the ball. Looks like he wants to be the hero all the time, despite having better options available to him.

Is he the Brazilian Nazon?

It’s because he wants to be World footballer of the year he is a selfish player

Paul Anthony · Jun 17, 2018

Talking of making the most of it, Lichtsteiner predictably absolutely fine after looking like he'd had his jaw broken...

A decent haircut might help!

It’s anything to stand out a bit more

It certainly does that. If it stood out anymore It'd glow in the dark. I know Brazilians are all about flamboyance, but that takes it a bit too far!

Paul Anthony · Jun 17, 2018

Underwhelmed by Brazil. Look like they crumble under pressure at the back. Switzerland coped well with their attacking finesse too.

Earlsdon_Skyblue1 · Jun 17, 2018

Switzerland are very average, but Brazil made them look pretty good at times!

A lot of teams, France, Argentina, Germany, Brazil all looking a bit shakey at the start of this tournament. Portugal and Spain looked decent but both had their vulnerabilities too!

Sick Boy · Jun 17, 2018

I see that the media have spent ages bigging up Brazil and how great Neymar is etc and then once again they fail to deliver.

westcountry_skyblue · Jun 17, 2018

Thought Brazil looked very dodgy at the back,I'd fancy McNulty and Biamou against their back four!!

Liquid Gold · Jun 17, 2018

Been a round of shocks so far. Hopefully England don’t carry on the trend tomorrow.

Terry Gibson's perm · Jun 17, 2018

You would want a sixty million plus goalkeeper to either punch or catch that corner

I got 9-1 on Tunisia earlier

That’s a good price. We should beat them but they’re no mugs. Best ranked African team. Loads of Tunisians are on our train. Most of them think we’ll beat them by a couple due to injuries.

Paul Anthony · Jun 17, 2018

South Korea have the best gameplan to date:

South Korea: Shin Tae-yong made players swap shirts to try to confuse opposition

England should win but I think it'll be a draw, England never seem to start strongly at tournaments. 9-1 was always going to be worth a go though. Enjoy tomorrow.
