June 22, 20187 yr Brazil was the better team, but their fucking flopping and simulations are what fucks up this game. Why the fuck on the VAR review did Neymar not get a fucking yellow from the ref? you bought his bullshit and called a foul in the penalty box, which means you were about to award a PK, which at the time could have meant the game winner.... and you reviewed it, saw Neymar was more interested in falling down trying to get the PK, rather than take a shot, and you overturned it. By every fucking definition thats a yellow for simulation
June 22, 20187 yr Brazil deserved to win. But if Neymar pulls that shit against some eastern Europeans, he is going to be put out of the tournament again.
June 22, 20187 yr Did Brazil look decent today? I didnt get to watch it. Been disappointed by quality of play/results from the Americas. Hard to tell how good Uruguay is bc theur group is so weak. Mexico with the only big win.
June 22, 20187 yr Tough game for Costa Rica, but, they had a shot and didn't get it done. The rolling on the ground after being shot stuff never gets not funny. A serious question, announcers are all given the talking point about Brazil playing the beautiful game, when do you all think was the last time Brazil really played, the beautiful game? I'm not asking that because I hate them or anything. I'm not for them, but they are a power so of course they are worth watching.
June 22, 20187 yr I've always thought Neymar was overrated. Even back when he played for Santos. When you take as many shots as he does you are supposed to score.

Romario and Bebeto had their moments as well, but I think the traditional thinking is 1986. Like most of the world, they were always my second favorite team growing up, but the past several iterations have turned me off. Edited June 22, 20187 yr by Kringelbert Fishtybuns

Brazil hasn't been a wow team since the days of Ronaldo and Ronaldinho.
June 22, 20187 yr I also liked Brazil a bit when I was a kid. Now they just annoy me. Get the fuck up and get on with the game.
June 22, 20187 yr Haven't seen the beautiful game since the Dutch squad with Bergkamp, Kluivert, Seedorf, Davids, Overmars etc...

June 22, 20187 yr Well, I thought we were talking jogo bonito - which would kind of rule out the Dutch and Spanish sides. Iniesta, Xabi and Xavi could have played 3x3 in a phone booth and the other team would have never seen the ball.

June 22, 20187 yr SnoozefestAll the iceland games are...dont get the love for themThey bunker on defense and create a few chances and dont finish very oftenNigeria and croatia was a fun game to watch with both teams creating chances

They can't play like Brazil and have admitted as such, because at the end of the day, they would just be a pretty bad version of Brazil. For a country that has a total population less than half the size of Austin, it's pretty remarkable what they've done. That's where the love comes from. Personally speaking, I'm partial to Iceland because I love their country and their people.

June 22, 20187 yr wow, that was almost identical there... 3 icelanders running, and the ball slightly deflected

They're just more tactical with their attacking than most teams. Parking the bus doesn't get you to the Quarters of Euro 2016.
