Title: World Cup - Day 17
Post by: Sir Pissalot on Saturday, June 28, 2014, 16:25:43
We haven't had one of these for a few days.

Howard Webb under close scrutiny in this game.  He got the Hulk 'penalty' decision right, though. 

Looked like an OG to me, rather than a David Luiz goal, too!

£40m plus Alexis Sanchez seems like good business to me for Suarez

Yeah agree with all of that
Not sure Webb is the best ref in England but FIFA obv think he is
As long as Brasil stay in front he will be ok

It's one-all on goals but I have Chile just ahead on silly haircuts!  :)

Even though Davis Luiz is playing for Brazil?

Looked like a shoulder to me.

It looked like it brushed the top of the arm/shoulder. Big call by the lino.

Never a handball for me.

Absolutely fascinating game this, Chile are a bloody good team, they are going this big time.

Brilliant game. Both sides going for it.

Pens on the horizon.

Hulk's best game of the tournament so far. Looks a proper handful.

Shame Medel's gone off

These FIFA kit rules are ruining the look of certain teams. Brazil look awful in White shorts, as do the jeeermans.

Chile hit the bar in last 20 seconds means they lose on penalties.

This could turn very ugly if Brazil lose. I hope I'm wrong. Howard Webb must be shitting bricks.

Fantastic game though.

Don't like the way Neymar takes his pens.  Borderline cheating.

Superb game.
Was hoping Brazil would go out partly because they've largely been pretty poor, but mainly because every man and his dog has Neymar in their team for the fantasy World Cup tournament at work. Stuck with Sanchez myself. Balls.

Really enjoyed that. Chile are everything England aren't - organised, hard working, the stars they have deserve to be, tactically astute with a good manager, comfortable on the ball and hard.
With limited resources they make the best of what they've got. I'd take their manager as well. If you're going to go out, that's the way to do it.
I hope our spineless, useless bunch of overpaid shysters watched this game and felt as guilty as fuck but that's as delusional as a second hand window salesman with no money taking over a football club.

James Rodriguez is player of the tournament so far IMO, absolutely world class player.

At Monaco, that's going to cost them a few bob.

Chile's effort and desire was a credit to them.
They can go home feeling unlucky and with their heads held high.
Everything England aren't.

Fully agree, and they had players play in positions, which weren't their normal positions for the sake of the team.

Take notice Gerrard and Rooney.

Indeed, given he went for 40m euros just last summer to Monaco who are trying to compete with PSG, I doubt any of our clubs could afford him after a superb World Cup.
