QF: Friday 4th FRA GER BRZ COL

This Brazil side is average. Helped by officiating and luck for the most part.

I disagree. They're nowhere near the Brazil of old and aren't as much of a 'team' as they could be, but Marcelo, Neymar, Oscar, Silva and Luiz are all top, top players in my opinion. They have others, Paulinho/Fernandinho/Maicon etc, who are good but occasionally lack that bit of magic, but I couldn't call them average.

I thought they outlawed that kind of pen a couple of years ago

They did but players still do it, Neymar did it in the shoot out against Chile. They should be made to retake them.

It's not been a robbery or anything, but Brazil are definitely getting their money's worth out of home advantage.

32% of world cups have been won by the home team. That's why they call it home field advantage.

 

 

 

Conspiracy, or do they often just let really good teams host the tournament?

hasn't deterred neymar from stopping his run up a couple of times already this wc

 

 

Seriously. I'm getting really sick of all these Ministry of Silly Walks-style penalty run-ups.
