OT: World Cup 2018

[HuskyHawk]

Really enjoying two teams with great skill attacking relentlessly.

 

[intlzncster]

Wow. Sniped.

 

[bobbygt]

What a scorcher

 

[intlzncster]

Brazil still very much in this. They just need one this jalf

 

[UCDaveD]

Belgium are savages.

 

[Jay-Bone]

Wow, Brazil getting caught with their pants down. If they can find the back of the net this will be really exciting.

 

[Jay-Bone]

Belgium are savages.

They're like vipers, they recoil and then strike fast and precise. As we saw against Japan as well.

Any other team down 2-0 I would think this is done, but Brazil has been peppering the box.

As I said above, Brazil still very much in it. They can score from anywhere. Courtois is really tough tho.

Given Belgium's (and Brazil's) defensive inconsistencies, Brazil may well get their 1 or 2 or more this coming half. Concurrently, Belgium may reciprocate. Ideally, the 2nd half includes multiple goals versus the potential for Roberto Martinez foolishly going into a stall and far too early.

Crazy thing is Brazil really only gave up two or three opportunities (plus the own goal}. And they're down 2-0.

 

[djct1999]

May see 3 + goals this half. Buckle up.

No doubt, but oh Brazil's potential ... and that's not even accounting for Brazil pulling forward as the clock ticks and Belgium potentially counterattacks.

 

[intlzncster]

Aaaand we have a game

 

[UCDaveD]

Game on.

 

[bobbygt]

Firminho has been pretty average this game.

He does have beautiful teeth though.

 

[bobbygt]

Wow, Belgium's defense was lost on that one. Lucky

 

[intlzncster]

You cannot miss the net there

 

[bobbygt]

You cannot miss the net there

And on that one (he was running full throttle).

 

[Jay-Bone]

Ugh, how can you not hit that cleanly???

 

[Robertelamin]

Brazil has had all the chances you could ask for

 

[UCDaveD]

Neymar’s antics are a double edged sword in that he doesn’t get the benefit of the doubt, but that wasn’t a penalty

 

[bobbygt]

Good for Belgium!

Gonna be a great matchup with France.

 

[intlzncster]

Brazil. Damn.

What really stinks is France Brazil would have been the nuts

 

[Jay-Bone]

Only European teams left (+Russia), that's kinda boring.

 

[UCDaveD]

Belgium/France will be a fantastic matchup.
