We'll need a few more open games than the one we saw earlier today to do that!

Annie's Boobs!

Underwhelming game. Much of it was played at a glacial pace compared to some of the round of 16 and first round games. Please, please, please let Colombia-Brazil live up to the hype!

I don't know, perhaps I just didn't study them in enough detail before.

Do her tatas look...different?

Okay. Do think we are a bit underrated in that game though.

This is already our second most successful World Cup ever. If we could, by some miracle, defeat Argentina then we would match our best ever showing.

The main problem is the total lack of creativity in the middle of the park. Really no more than one of Fernandinho, Luiz Gustavo and Paulinho should be starting at the same time. Not all three at the same time!

I think she is gorgeous personally. Wouldn't mind seeing her in SISE. Though I doubt she will be featuring with her body as it is presented in Pretty's pictures. Weren't there some instagram pictures of her recently where she had been working out to shed some weight?

Brazil looks incredibly vulnerable.

Hoping that Chile can knock out Brazil, but I doubt it. They will certainly have the ref against them. I doubt that FIFA would even allow them to be knocked out prior to the semis.

I think we are going out, we cannot keep on winning games whilst not playing well.

If not for their finishing, Nigeria could have quite easily beaten Argentina yesterday. They will need to chore up that backline if they want to make a serious challenge for the World Cup crown.

On behalf of the country of Belgium, I would like to apologize to the rest of the world for that display. Shittest game I have seen at the WC (with the caveat that I did not see Nigeria-Iran, which was apparently also dire). Happy with the three points and for that kid Origi.

I doubt she is responding to us since there hasn't been a whole lot of negativity at her expense on here. At least not recently.

Well Brazil getting favorable refs is the least surprising thing ever. But even I was surprised at that blatant non-penalty they got awarded vs. Croatia.

Based on FiveThirtyEight.com's projections, they currently have a 3.5% chance at making the second round. So not exactly "no chance", but I wouldn't bet the house on them making it.

There is something strangely comforting about Englands consistency in terms of their performances at major football tournaments. TBF to them, a draw was probably the fair result in last nights game, and Godin should have really been sent off for a second yellow card.

I think it might be true. Following in the mold of some other former Barça stars, getting one last paycheck in the desert.

I suspect this will have been the last tournament for a lot of this generation. I am curious what happens to the likes of Ramos, Iniesta, Piqué. They are part of this golden generation, yet are still too young to simply discard before France 2016. Casillas, Xavi, Xabi Alonso, Torres, ... will probably have represented La Furia Roja for the last time at a major tournament.

Well I suspected that Spain would find the end of their dominance at this tournament, but I was still pretty convinced they would survive their group. I was sure that Holland would have been the casualty. I think the problem is more that this side was mentally and physically drained. They looked so very tired and lethargic. People forget that the core of this team has been playing nearly non-stop since 2008. 2008: Euros 2009: Confed cup 2010: WC 2012: Euros 2013: Confed cup 2014: WC One Summer off in seven years would catch up to any team, let alone a team consisting of players who endure some of the most grueling club seasons to boot (Barça & Real Madrid, but also their premier league contingent).

So relieved we won. Mertens should start every game, he always brings a spark whenever he starts/comes on. Also, young Origi made Lukaku look ordinary by comparison in his short half hour cameo! Fellaini proving that he still has value to any manager who uses him to his strengths.

Well TBF, Portugal had showed next to nothing even before that card. So I think it only was a factor in the score-line, not the result.

The quality is decent but not great. It is much better than in 2010 to be fair.
