    Croatia got hosed on that penalty call. And their goalie should have saved at least 2 out of the 3 goals. Brazil is very, very lucky to get 3 points.

    Considering that Croatia struggled to beat a poor Australia team 1-0 last week I was really expecting Brazil to have been better today. Neymar will get all the headlines but Oscar was easily the best player on the pitch.
    It was never a penalty (nice dive Fred) but the keeper should still have saved it.

    Well, 1 of Brazil's 3 goals was nice. Neymar is overrated. Brazil isn't in championship form. 3-1 sounds lopsided, but Croatia was a handful for them.

    i agree for neymar..its a creation of marketing and managers

    the player can't get away from what's around him

    you got to give him credit, he's awesome, great goal

    Per the usual, the officiating is a complete embarrassment. 2 Mexico goals in the first half that should have been allowed were called off. Such a joke.

    Yup, amazing. It is sad when the officiating is more of a story than the game, as it was yesterday and continuing again today. Mexico is my least favorite team in the world but even I could see that the were disallowed 2 legit goals. I still hope they lose, but I hope they lose because another team beats them fairly, not because the refs screwed up again.

    Yep...I can't stand Mexico either, but that was complete bullshit on both of those goals. Hopefully every game isn't plagued by terrible officiating.

    still fuming over yesterday...total horseshit

    Friend of mine down there said he couldnt even make it to the venue unit 15 minutes in...cause its a mess with riots going on......so I can see why the refs want Brazil to go Deep...can you imagine an early exit...the world cup might come to an abrupt end.

    we didnt deserve to win, but def draw


    fuckin fixing matches

    Haha, shocking! I have Germany beating Spain in the final on my bracket, but at this rate Spain is going to be on an early flight home if they don't figure things out. Crazy game! The Dutch are on fire. This has been the most entertaining game so far for sure.
