nice goal....

Gosh that fred is hopeless, surely brazil has someone out there that can play centre forward.

Chile are having a right go now, bookies must be sitting with their fingers crossed

Look more likely to win it with 20 minutes to go....

Goal in last 5 minutes or penalties...12 minutes to go...

Well I chickened out -when Brazil went 1-0 up but very unconvincingly , South America shortened and I traded out -I might have been premature but I am no longer convinced about anything in this tournament.

Exactly Rob, no team has stood out like Spain did 4 years ago.

Brazil have two of the most useless forwards in Fred and Hulk. Chile should have put this game to rest in 90 minutes.

And only a handful of players have shown the ability to turn a match ( have to say that Neymar has played much better for Brazil than Barca) and a lot of players have looked very ordinary.
Messi has been great but his team mates have been very average.
Not impossible that the European sides could start to acclimatize too,so hard to call right now and I would rather enjoy the games without the pressure of big bets!

Looking at the 2 keepers , would Chile be favorites in a shoot out ?

Should it go to penalties I think the Brazilians will have the more level headed penalty takers.

Brazil are disappointing.
