Also lolll the Reffing was so bad in the uru v eng game...Uruguay had 12 men on the field no doubt. I was half rooting for england by the midway point even though I had action on Uruguay...

I'm sure we'll continue seeing a south american slant from the reffs.

BTW some heroic defending by the Greeks...too bad for them on the dumb challenge for the red card. They have a really sick stat where they have one of the fewest conceded goals in the euro qualifiers. I really like that tightly played and disciplined team. Too bad they are lacking a bit of midfield and attacking quality

I thought the ref did a great job in the Uruguay-England game? What decisions made you think otherwise?

In some peoples' eyes he let Godin get away with a bit much, but meh.

sup Italy?

Group D has been best so far IMO. Too bad England vs Costa Rica will be worthless. But Uruguay vs Italy for a tourney spot should be good.

Yeah but I think it's directive. We hardly see any red cards except for direct ones for violence. 2nd yellow's are not easily given. And it's been like that in all games so I wouldn't say that's a distinct advantage to Uruguay.

You were saying what now

I still believe England was the favorite.

Lololololol free monies! Seriously tho Costa Rica has impressed the shit out of me. Their work rate and discipline was world class no doubt. Congrats to Costa Rica! Hats off for a world class performance

If u look at fouls commuted Uruguay almost commuted 2x more. And the ref did not punish a lot of clear bookings. They disrupted England's rythem quite severely with their constant fouling. And they did it without discretion because there was no repercussions... That's huge in a closely contested match

England was clearly the better team in the uru vs eng match no doubt. Too bad the x factor that is Suarez mixed things up. And he didn't even look close to match fit

Never seen so many foreigners in my city (Brasilia).
Brazil x Cameroon will be here, it's gonna be crazy...

This world cup has been amazing, the entire country is excited.

I was in brasilia too tutz, sometimes i felt like i was in bogota. So many colombians walking around!

i heard most of the brazils dislike the world cup, like they pumped a shitload of money into it building stadiums and bringing a luxxy show while 50% of the population is starving and needs hostpitals, schools etc

Yea there was a huge protest/riot just hours before the first WC game that resulted in a few traveling fans being Injured etc. Its a shitshow no doubt

Lol damn my dad took Iran at +2.5 saying they are quite the fighters...I didn't believe in them cuz of their lack of quality. But they proved me wrong with a really disciplined side today. Argentina once again looked really flat and one dimensional...without that messi magic woulda been nil nil draw lolll. Hopefully they sharpen up

Excited for my Germans to win me my 500$ today. Gogoggogogo

I wonder which is worse, Russia with the Olympics, or Brazil with the World Cup.
