To expect Brazil to put up a fight?

[MBT1987]

My God. My absolute God. 3 goals in 2 minutes from Germany.

It was like a moment from a ludicrous game of FIFA against my drunk younger brother.

You tell 'em, aderynias! It's not over until the final whistle!

That will be one heck of a pep talk in the changing rooms in the interval. Poor guys.

Oof do you think the team will come back?

Booed off. poor sods. I'm coming over all British and feeling sorry for the underdogs

Booing them off was v unkind and unnecessary. I am sure they feel quite bad enough all by themselves.

It's about ten years since I've seen Alan Hansen and he is still resplendent. I definitely would.

Me too.

So far my dad, sis and nephew have all called to make sure my DP is watching it

^^sorry for being totally off topic, I was overwhelmed!

rootypig, I know you did not ask but YABVU

Rio Ferdinand's trousers!!!! !

Sorry for the tirade of filth, just turned it on and am

Oh this is awful. I was hoping for a Netherlands/Brazil final but it's going to be Germany/Argentina.

If I were them I wouldn't come back after half time.

Oh and the Columbian tackle on Neymar was vvicious.

Yes I know sorry

I do support Germany (as if you hadn't guessed), but i so hope Brazil catch up a bit and regain some of their dignity.

rooty, re Rio, YANBU

oh I think it's brilliant

My German boyfriend is squirming with compassion and embarrassment.

I never watch football, not since the 90s and I had to see the European Cup on Wednesday nights because we had one telly

But I've just yammed my dad and bro on whatsapp and sent out for chocolate

Brazil back on the pitch, so that's a start

What on eaaaaaarth is going to happen

Booing is appalling. A fan should never boo their own team.

I'd love to see Brazil pull it back but I think I've more chance of winning the lottery. :(

I just really want them to play well in the second half - not too well, but well

My German friend has just texted me to say "It's just like watching Brazil".

They could still pull it back

3 dives in 3 minutes

rootypig I'm with you on the Alan Hansen thing. He's a no-nonsense type of manly man. And that scar just seals the deal! He does a good scowl.

The way the brazilians played against the Colombians (before that tackle) was indefensible.

I'm really pleased to see their come uppance.

But I feel bit sorry for them too.

I'm clearly too soft for football. I nearly cried for the poor lad who missed the third penalty in the Netherlands game and this is just too painful to watch.

okily I have had a thing for him for literally years. His voice! sexy. when he's outraged there is no gap whatsoever between his words
He is a fox
