Day 4: Costa Rica vs Serbia, Germany vs Mexico , Brazil vs Switzerland

The acceleration on some of these Brazilian players is amazing.
 
Deary me, you would think with VAR now these players would stop exaggerating their dives. All these players need booking.

Jesus went down like he was shot.
 
Brazil are horrific with the diving so far, not endearing at all
 
he surely helped himself a lot with that fall, didn't he?
 
Agree, fancy Spain as the best but not sure theyll win. They arent as imperious as 8 years ago with their possession, and more go through periods of domination rather then 90 minutes of domination. I'd say they have the most potential, if they can put it all together over 90 minutes. Looking like a tournament though where anyone can believe they can win against anyone, which is great. 2010 and 2014, even against top teams, Spain and then Germany were the clear favourites, which was a bit meh.
Yeah definitely, no one looks bullet proof at this stage. The round of 16 should be very tasty with a couple of big upsets.
 
Scouse Bobby coming on to get the winner
 
Been inured since February

Hasn't played a competitive game since .

Doesn't necessarily look unfit though in his movement. Just being incredibly selfish as per and not executing much.

He'll get sharper I'm sure, but all he's doing at the moment is coming deep to get the ball and then taking all the tempo out of the game by jogging with it and not passing to his team-mates.
 
Just out of interest, are there any jokes on Muslim or other non-Christian religion on the Caf? or too shit-scared to use those ;)?
 
When England played Brazil in the recentish friendly the Brazilians took that game seriously, full strength team and only made 3 subs, they didn’t really look much me scoring in that game. A surprising lack of threat, much like tonight.

I don't think so. It's very PC here:D

Not a good idea to make jokes about Christians or non-Christians I think. Come up with some other jokes:)
 
I always start out rooting for Brazil, but then I remember what a bunch whiny tits they are.

Fair’s fair though, Firmino has cracking teeth.
