World Cup: QF: Brazil vs. Belgium, 7/6/2018

They already are. They're at 10 shots already.

Let’s see if they put more than four players in the box next time.

 

[YNWA14]

I don't think they'll turn around a 0-2 scoreline, but they can count themselves slightly fortunate they haven't been put out of sight altogether.

Maybe, but only because they haven't buried any of the chances they've created themselves. Their striker has been pretty poor.

What? Belgium scored on an own goal and one counter attack while Brazil had numerous chances. Should be 1-1 or 1-2 at least

 

[Eisen]

Brazil will have to take more chances eventually.

They will.

 

[Firsov99]

Neymar should have rolled several times to get the penalty there.

 

[Sol]

What a half.

 

[robertmac43]

yeah 2-0 seems a little harsh on Brazil

 

[spintheblackcircle]

My pick to win the Cup is looking good.
.

I have $50 on them at 12-1.

 

[Sol]

No one believes Neymar anymore. Good.

 

[YNWA14]

Meunier definitely fouled Neymar in the box there, btw.

 

[Eisen]

One of the good games this far. It helps that it has the right side winning.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Great half of football, hopefully the intensity keeps up in the second!

 

[Stray Wasp]

And Belgium of all teams should know that 2-0 can evaporate in a second

True enough - but Belgium were playing a team without a goalkeeper.

And Belgium has Fellaini's invisible elbows to give their defence extra protection.

Meunier definitely fouled Neymar in the box there, btw.

Yup, and I shouldn't think that - it's unfair to the team - but I'm glad this happened to the boy who cried wolf.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Meunier definitely fouled Neymar in the box there, btw.

Probably, although not stonewall. His reputation definitely preceded him though, which is good. Notorious divers not getting calls is I think one of the best deterrents around.

 

[Sol]

I have $50 on them at 12-1.

I bet 50 on them before the tournament as well haha

 

[ViD]

We are 45 minutes away from Euro 2018

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Seven of the guys in this Belgium eleven were in the starting lineup two years ago when they lost 3-1 to Wales. The mental growth in this team is dramatic.

Jesus has been a disappointment (as sceptics have been telling us for the best part of 2000 years). The longer they wait to introduce Firmino, the slimmer their chances.

 

[Suiteness]

Told you guys Casemiro being out was as big a suspension you could get. His replacement scores an own goal and gets passed by like a useless cone for the second.

He's one of the unheraldeds. At least compared to the flair players. Like a poor man's Eilts.

 

[mouser]

Missed the first half, has Neymar died yet?

 

[Bon Esprit]

As long as this Ribeiro-like weazle named Neymar gets kickey out of this tourney I'm okay with it.

 

[Bon Esprit]

Missed the first half, has Neymar died yet?

Sadfully he died twice. Rip

 

[Firsov99]

He and his team are on life support at the moment.
