[Closed] Brazil 2014. The World Cup thread

OMG a miss, oizul? he is sooo fired.... omg omg furious germans BRAZIL LET ONE IN!!!!!

özil no!
Where's the German ruthlessness now?

Oscar ...no!

Ach scheisse

probably the most consolation goal of all time

Ich hoffe nür dass Du meinst Das nicht im ernst, Boxfish, und dass Du eher "glucklich" bist.

Brazil have scored and the Germans are furious apparently! The goal hads just been described aa the most pointless of world cup goals. I almost feel sorry for the guy who scored it.

Two Arsenal players....Ozil misses a sitter and metre sacked sleeping!

Well that was dull

quick everyone down the tunnel

Well, it's 8th goal but not all to Deutschland ...

I can sleep well tonight.

I see the Brazil's player's prayers didn't do them much good.

Two Arsenal players....Ozil misses a sitter and metre sacked sleeping!

Ozil ain't a striker. No biggie.

*screams into jar*

I'm hoping for Brazil to win this. Winning goal caused by Neuer being off his line.

Well I think it's a good thing I don't gamble

the BBC pundits have spent the last 45 minutes thinking up this "meaningful" shite they're trotting out.

geezz the brazilian fans should trying being an england fan ! Their squad at least score goals

The trouble with Germans is they are bad losers

true, they never really got over wwI, still waiting for the toys out of the pram for wwII though! 😉

I think they are describing England in the first round ... 😆

Yay! Brazil 1 - Germany 7 (seven)

Pisstaking bastard on the captions at the bbc

Hang on a minute.... I made the comparison with united battering Roma in the champions league, and predicted the same score line. 7 - 1

That's the first time I've correctly called the final result of a match EVER! 😀

Anyone else notice all the flashing lights in the backdrop behind the BBC studio?

This is what twitter was made for!

Cummon Holland! You must win!

The Brazilians need to be torn off a strip for that.

🙁

Cummon Holland! You must win!

I agree, but then I'd also like to see Germany take the Argies apart too

Just checked the score line and it wasn't a dream (the 3 way with Shakira and Lois Griffin I assume probably was a dream though).

Germany won't win. Argentina will. My Asian mate says so.

Wow, what a World Cup

Missed first goal as was at drinks party, saw the second, went for a quick "comfort break" and came back to 4-0 ! Quite incredible match, total capitulation from Brazil but Germany where very very good.

Come on Holland

If you like stats, you'll love FIFA:

General: http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/statistics/index.html

Players: http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/players/browser/index.html

They appear to be missing dives off of their stats 🙂

very reminiscent of chelsea's 6-0 demolition of Arsenal at the emirates. Skilled and Organised vs Flair & Style you can get results like this especially when you make every mistake pay.

Have we done this?

Makes me chuckle

'BY GOD HE IS BROKEN IN HALF'

Skilled and Organised vs Flair & Style

I can only assume you're referring to Germany with the first phrase and Brazil with the second. Neither of which are that true. Germany play with flair and style as well as a well-organised defence, with a keeper marshalling from behind the centre backs. This is the least "flair and style" Brazil side I've ever seen. Can't say it's the [i]worst[/i] ever, but it's one if the least attractive, for sure. I'm not sure Germany are seven goals better than Brazil - it was a freak result, helped by Brazil's disorganisation, which turned into chaos after the second goal.

So your predictions for this evening’s festivities ?

Holland to win 3-2 in extra time.

2-1 Holland in normal time. Whatever happens it's likely to seam boring compared with last night's.

8-1 to Holland?
No I think 3-2 to Argentina as from the off i had Germany v Argentina Final.

3:2 to holland in normal time. theres no penalties except the ones given by the ref for argentina.
Expect someone to end up with 10 men.
Lots of rolling around by both teams but no biting 🙂

If Ageuro is back for Argentina, and they work out not to play [b]everything[/b] through Messi, then I will go for an Argentinian victory. Unfortunately I suspect a Dutch victory is more likely.

I would love to see this Argentinian team play to its potential, and give Messi a platform to perform in the final, but I just don't think they have the tactics and team ethic to do it.

Yes, only if Argentina can get pass Holland which I doubt so. Holland will win 3 - 0 if they can pin down Messi because Argentina is a one or two man team.

Germany won't win. Argentina will. My Asian mate says so.

Argentina is marginally better than Brazil and if they play against Germany they will be hammered 4 nil. 😆

The final will be between Germany vs Holland ... I want Holland to win because they have never won it before but they need to get pass Argentina first.

If Holland can pin down Messi they can win 3 nil but if not probably 2 - 1 to Holland (win). Argentina always produce short people that can play brilliant football ...

This is the least "flair and style" Brazil side I've ever seen. Can't say it's the worst ever, but it's one if the least attractive, for sure

That attack is dire - Hulk and fred are workmanlike at best and Neymar is a good player but not wuite in the top 5 of current strikers never mind all time/Brazillian.

[mystic meg]Tonight Holland by two goals

Messi scores and then gets injured.

No red cards but one penalty[/mystic meg]

If Holland can pin down Messi

I believe he is going to be 'de Jong'd'.

Whatever happens it's likely to seam boring compared with last night's.

Sew you say.

Neymar last night, with 5 minutes to go.

If there isn't 5 goals by half time then I'm gonna turn over and watch death in paradise.

I'm going for Argentina. 2-0

The current Brazil team is a bit shit and they we're missing there two best players, one of which is a half decent centre half and the other a decent forward at best.

Andy says

" this one is aproper game"

There you have it then....wish you could mute him tbh

Cummon Holland! Cummon!

2-2 with Argies to go thru on pens. 4-2

😐

Argentina's manager looks like an evil gnome.

It's the Robben v Messi show tonight!

Christ. That's like choosing a punch in the face, or a kick in the balls.

Townsend's a tool, him and Chiles completely ruin ITV's coverage.

Are the cloggys wearing their normal strip? Looks a bit red.

You should not be taking those jokers too seriously because commentators are there to talk shite basically but I think they are good laugh ... 😆

Argentina are a better team without Di Maria.

Argentina are a better team without Di Maria.

That's easy to say with hindsight. He played a blinder for RM. So deserved his place.

I think that's just this TV.

I'd like a Dutch win... lots of orange in my fantasy team and l'm only 4 points of the top of the works league

"Everyone's a bit concussed at the moment"

SHUT UP ITV!

That's easy to say with hindsight. He played a blinder for RM. So deserved his place.

Yep, but his decision making has been poor throughout this tournament, he has been too selfish and not picked up on runs by other players, Zableta has been picked out a couple of times tonight already and made dangerous runs and put decent crosses in, Di Maria completely ignored him in the previous games.

It is one of those hard decisions where a coach has too choose between a top player and the team. As the French coach did with Nasri, and appears to have got it right.

show the blonde argentina fan again please... 😀

show the blonde argentina fan again please...

Mmmmmm!

Messi really has become an odious little shit in this tournament.

This game is becoming a bit, shall we say, [i]attritional[/i].

I am currently enduring, rather than enjoying, it.

I think my cheeky quid on Holland to win 5-1 may have been wasted

First yellow card...about bloody time.

Martins Indi may well see a red - with what he's been doing since kick-off, which is "go out and be a doorman".

0-0 starting to look a more realistic prediction! 🙁

Martins Indi may well see a red

It looks like he sees all....

That's a bit ambitious ... 3-1 or 2-1 might be more realistic. 😆

He also has the turning circle of a springing cow.

At 200-1 it was worth a punt.

northernmatt - Member

At 200-1 it was worth a punt.

Crikey 200-1 😯 . True, true ... 😆

Germany will win the tournament by the look of things by at least 3-0 unless the other team has 11 goalies ... 😆

You know it's bad when you take more interest in what cheese to have on your online grocery order.

Yes, and you know this'll be the one that drags on for two and a half hours...

So - what are Argentina trying to do? They don't seem to be committing anyone in the box?
