Brazil probably playing as well as they have done all World Cup. I'm sure they will get nervy 2nd half though. Colombia still to win

Glad I didn't bother getting up early for the kraut v frog game, sounded a right load of shite.

Brazil v Germany semi looking highly likely here. Can't see Colombia getting anything here. Momentum all with Brazil.

Can't beat a game that's totally bonkers and riven with mistakes, misplaced passes and so on.


I still think Colombia can get something out of this, although if Brazil get a second it's probably game over.


Apart from Fernandinho clouting Rodriguez every time he gets near him I can't actually discern any tactics.

Says everything about how far Brazil have fallen, when they resort to just kicking lumps out of the opposition's best player.

This Brazil team is nowhere near the same class as some of the great sides of yesteryear. I reckon that even their team of 2002 when they last won it, although not a great side itself, was better man-for-man than the current lot.
