old man getting it done

Beauty Kolarov, was starting to worry the first game I get to see in whole was going to end up 0-0..

 

[TP]

Perfect shot.

 

[maclean]

That was like two yellow cards.

At least we know now how blatant it has to be for the ref to give a card. Pantsing still allowed though

 

[PanniniClaus]

Kolarov has always had that magical left foot. Costa Rica need to get some subs in to change the game. Campbell and Bolanos specifically.

They have banned the 0 - 0 games I think. Good plan.

 

[Luigi Habs]

I was writing that it’s laughable how much difficulty Serbia are having to get CR’s first defensive block and then Kolarov scores on a great FK.

I don’t know why they’re playing SMS too high on the pitch. He should be playing as an 8.

 

[Chimaera]

Whoever buys Milinkovic-Savic is getting a heck of a player

 

[Stray Wasp]

Mitrovic has also looked solid today, man's a beast

Leave £20 million at Milburn reception, NE1 and he's yours.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Beautiful strike.

CRC is a terrible team proving that 2014 was a complete fluke. Hate their flopping all over the pitch.

 

[Stray Wasp]

I just turned this game on in time to see Mitrovic win the free kick for Kolarov to hit.

First time in this World Cup that I've not missed the salient action in a game I only saw part of.

 

[Bakayoko Ono]

I don't see European teams losing a match against non-Europeans.

 

[robertmac43]

Leave £20 million at Milburn reception, NE1 and he's yours.

I think I'll have to pass in this one

 

[Stray Wasp]

I don't see European teams losing a match against non-Europeans.

How come? Are you heading to the shops when Brazil play Switzerland?

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

I don't see European teams losing a match against non-Europeans.

Agree. Brazil is the only team I see posing any threat to any European team...Though I wouldn't discount Serbia and Swizterland advancing from this group.

 

[robertmac43]

Yes finally get to see some Campbell action

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

I don't see European teams losing a match against non-Europeans.

Ridiculous.

 

[Stray Wasp]

Costa Rica missed a couple of decent opportunities to pass between the lines there.

 

[Name Nameless]

I don't see European teams losing a match against non-Europeans.

Yeah, that's why UEFA gets all three more spots when they plan on expanding from a 32-teams tournament to a 48-teams tournament in 2026.

 

[Stray Wasp]

World class analysis from Iain Dowie.

'Having three at the back allows you to play 3-5-2'.

I can't argue with that wisdom.

 

[King 88]

I don't see European teams losing a match against non-Europeans.

Well good luck Switzerland.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

Serbia's finishing leaves a lot to be desired.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Yeah, that's why UEFA gets all three more spots when they plan on expanding from a 32-teams tournament to a 48-teams tournament in 2026.

Those Thailand vs Germany games will be world class.

 

[Name Nameless]

His head was on the ground.

 

[Stray Wasp]

Campbell messing up his chance to do a Diego Costa impression.
