Football World Cup Thread - Brazil 2014

[kooldude]

Costa Rica to win 2-1. That's my prediction for the evening.

 

[Hamish McPanji]

Just saw a replay, Robben wasnt a penalty.

I think there was contact, but Robben made a meal of it....the consummate professional actor that he is

There's only a handful of footballers who don't simulate under those circumstances these days. There was definitely contact, and it was a penalty.

 

[Debeer165]

We'll start with an easy one. Greece to end Costa Rica's good run. Costa Rica 2 - 3 Greece

I hope that you are correct as I have a PS4 running on this

 

[Debeer165]

Would that be the score at 90 minutes?

And if it was Suarez earning that penalty? Probably calls to ban him!!

Yes.

Only if he fell on another shoulder with his mouth open again.

[Replay]

Costa Rica win...1-0

 

[Debeer165]

Yes.

Very well, score prediction for full time entered. Let us see what happens

 

[MickeyD]

CR 3-1

 

[Unhappy438]

we would've won the penalty shoot out anyway....if no goals in extra 30

We?

Yeah if there was contact it was so slight, definitely not enough to cause that swan dive.

 

[Unhappy438]

A very small amount of contact, definitely a lot of simulation

[Replay]

We?

yes...we

 

[Creag]

And if it was Suarez earning that penalty? Probably calls to ban him!!

Yeah. No doubt. Robben had been pushing for a penalty on several occasions His dive was more theatrical this time. Bloody drama queens.

As for the next match up, CR 3 - 1. Do not see any way in which the Greeks can pull off a shocker or upset.

They have a way of putting the other side to sleep, its how they won the European championships a short while back. Look forward to 1-0 wins and penalties
