The Official Brazil 2014 FIFA World Cup thread

Neymar looked good tonight, in fairness. Brazil look like a 'wind behind them' team. I wonder if they go 1 down how they'll react?

Your man Jo is wicked. Fred isn't much better. Great names though. Sound like the midfield partnership for silver mines intermediate hurlers.

Silvermines. One word. No excuses.

Auto correct on the iPad doesn't recognise dolla's finest.

Don't care what style of pad you wear...lol.

Watched till Ivory Coast one at ~2min45secs, definitely dodgy action on ball from last bounce to manhole.

After the fiasco surrounding his fitness in the Champions League Final, is Diego Costa going to be fully fit to start in Spain's first match?....Tonight, Germany beat Armenia 6-1, but it was overshadowed by an ankle injury to Marco Reus, which has left him doubtful for the World Cup.

[Under Lights]

Reus would be a big loss for the Germans.

France could be doing with Nasri now that Ribery is out.

They'll be playing Italy this time next week. We will know a lot more after that game.
They have been poor enough in this game tonight

[ONeill]

Much more zip about England since Gerrard and Rooney were hauled off.

Sturridge seems to pass as a last resort.

[AZOffaly]

Honduras are filthy and divers at the same time. Horrible team. I hope they get hammered.

[Milltown Row2]

Commentator said they wont have too much problems with the central American teams!!! Does he realise they haven't scored against 10 men?

You can never read too much into pre tournament matches. Wasn't really feeling much love for it over the past few weeks but looking forward to it now and my two elder boys are at an age now (7 and 10) to be really into it.
