That was a foul prior to the goal, but meh it suits this match

Yep

 

[SliceSabre]

Welp this game is over.

Not a good match at all, Brazil needs to put in some more effort cause at this rate they are not gonna make it to the finals.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

this thread is already all kinds of awesome

"it's the most wonderful time of the yeeeaaaarrrr"

 

[akaoni]

Now the Oscar goal will cover the disgusting dive and discount the fact that Croatia are throwing everything they've got forward to get a goal at 90 minutes. Should've saved it.

 

[wakajawaka]

Brasil will win this 3-0.

They will struggle 0-0 until min 65, where Neymar will dive, ez pen, and then 2 counter attack goals.

Close enough

 

[Willkiller]

The ref has had a very poor game, but some of the hyperbole in this thread....

 

[CaseyTappy]

Goalie split the money with the ref !

 

[Peru]

if i were Croatian i would be embarrassed by the team.. absolutely horrible performance.

Really? They've been dangerous for large parts of the match. Offensive team. Better than most expected.

Also Oscar MOTM lol at people whining about him playing

 

[scarybore]

Croatia's keeper would do well to ask Fred for diving lessons, it's like he does it in slow motion or something.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Well the giveaway goal on the penalty kick means little now. Brazil had 2 real goals and Croatia had zero. Terrible ref but the outcome would not have changed.

 

[lastflowers]

At least it was Oscar.

 

[tabs2002]

Oscar MOTM

But he can do much more damage from the middle

 

[NoTacos]

Oscar.

 

[Filaipus]

I called 3x1 for Brasil, were do I receive my prize?

 

[survivor]

That shot didn't even look that strong, Croatian goalkeeper should have done a better job.

 

[Tekniqs]

True. It's the World Cup, and controversy is always the name of the game. Referees will continue to make bad calls throughout the competition, and not only in favor of Brazil.

And Brazil scores again. Fair and square.

it's not even that...I thought the foul on the keeper was pretty clear. And then everyone saying "Croatia scores but it's disallowed". in reality, play was stopped before that guy latched onto the loose ball to kick it in the goal. For all we know, it could have been blocked as well. it's ifs buts and maybes

 

[GraveRobberX]

Welp that just erased that Referees fuckup, GODDAMMIT!

 

[BTM]

Definite foul before that last goal. Oh well

 

[operon]

Fred having a mare.

 

[FootballFan]

Brazil names game's MVP.

Much hyperbole.

 

[Broder Salsa]

He is much better than Paulinho yes.

Not like Willian would take his place. He's also much better than Hulk though.

 

[confuziz]

Well the giveaway goal on the penalty kick means little now. Brazil had 2 real goals and Croatia had zero. Terrible ref but the outcome would not have changed.

Wow

 

[Pimpwerx]

The first goal was equally poor keeping. Look at how long it takes the goalie to get a jump on the ball. He didn't pick it up until it cleared the legs. He's just not very good. Brazil should've lost today, which is weird to say about sa 3-1 win. LOL. PEACE.

 

[Konosuke]

This will be rigged so much that Neymar will be MoM.

 

[pxleyes]

Really? They've been dangerous for large parts of the match. Offensive team. Better than most expected.

Also Oscar MOTM lol at people whining about him playing

And yet...no defense.

 

[PopeReal]

That Croatia goalie... holy shit is he slow.

 

[Jimrpg]

It's 10 v 13 goalkeeper and ref playing for Brazil

That is Sunday league quality keeping that

 

[cripterion]

I know France won't be able to play them but I would love it if they could smoke the Brazilian team.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

but Croatia's goalkeeper sucked twice on long balls

It's true. But the refs fucked this game up.

 

[dark_prinny]

Off to try Destiny Alpha is it. Nice to share this first match with you guys.


MAÑANA JUEGA LA ROJA!

VAMOS ESPAÑAAAA!

Netherlands will be looking for blood, tough.

:lol

 

[OgaKratos]

this thread is already all kinds of awesome

I agree.

 

[MrJustinius]

Oh well, tipped this score so that's a positive!

 

[Sykra]

We got robbed...
Fucking criminal association.

 

[Tekniqs]

That was a foul prior to the goal, but meh it suits this match

except it wasn't...looks like he got the ball first

 

[racketpunch]

Crappy goalkeeping for sure but the pace of this game totally changed after that shitty call from the ref. Very surprised that was called because you usually have to break someone's leg to get a call in the box. That should have a been a no call on the head challenge against the Brazilian keeper as well.

What a crappy start to the World Cup.

 

[bjaelke]

Well the giveaway goal on the penalty kick means little now. Brazil had 2 real goals and Croatia had zero. Terrible ref but the outcome would not have changed.

The penalty came at 1-1 and changed the game. Croatia didn't need to expose themselves like they did on the Oscar goal if they had no conceded the penalty.

 

[Broder Salsa]

I know France won't be able to play them but I would love for them to smoke the Brazilian team.

I honestly believe France can go all the way to a finale this time around, they have looked good and seems to be getting rid of their biggest most useless cunts like Nasri.

 

[Fergie]

Fred is a non-entity.

 

[The Cowboy]

Ahh well, £45 profit from winnings - still happy.

 

[Kill Your Masters]

Bullshit call by the ref ruined the match. Probably wasnt even necessary. Croatia looked gased at times, Brasil could've won it clean later on.

 

[B!TCH]

Brasil wasn't that impressive but Croatia didn't actually do anything to deserve a win. All the goals were scored by Brasil, hahaha.

 

[Toxi]

Holy shit, those calls.

 

[PsychBat!]

I'm moving on to tomorrow's game. This was just bad. Gratz to fans of Brazil.

 

[dr3upmushroom]

Honestly, even with these three goals, Brazil has not impressed.

 

[kottila]

More hyperbole here than in the gaming section. Clear foul in the croatisn disallowed goal

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Its in Blatters best interest Brazil win this.

Let's see what happens in their games after this.

 

[KillerMan91]

Well the giveaway goal on the penalty kick means little now. Brazil had 2 real goals and Croatia had zero. Terrible ref but the outcome would not have changed.

You really can't count it like that. That third goal would not have happened without that bullshit second goal.

 

[KingJolly]

Well I hope you brazilians enjoy this moment. Spain and Netherlands are on a whole different tier than Croatia

 

[survivor]

Fred is a non-entity.

He managed to get the penalty, that's something, kinda

 

[BattleMedic]

Judging by this performance I can't see them getting any further than the last 16, that's both Croatia and Brazil.
