Good beginning to this. Chile spreading very wide when they get the ball. They leave big gaps in the middle when they lose it.
Both teams looking to press the ball really high up the pitch, should lead to plenty of chances on the break as the game progresses and teams tire
Hulk much more involved today so far.
Brazil take the lead, bit of good fortune and David Luiz knocks it home at the back post
Cunts
Own goal.
Chile had looked vulnerable on a couple of set pieces before that. Their lack of height at the back was highlighted in my informative Group B preview of course.
Do accumulated yellow cards ever get wiped?
After the quarters I think. Came in at the last WC, but I am open to correction
Silva having a poor game down the right hand side of the Chile defence. Brazil getting a lot of joy down that flank
Come onnnnnnnnnnnnn!
That’s a terrible goal to give away but credit to Sanchez, that was a cool finish, had plenty to do
Yes…
Sanchez
great finish.
Good composed finish from Alexis. Who crossed for him? Did well to find him first time swiftly.
the credible hulk. if you done that down in cals park on a sunday you’d be taken off
A great tussle this
Vargas I think
Chile, like the Ecuadorians and Uruguayans, are tough bastards.
brazil more interested in the crowd. every time the ball goes out of play they are giving it the john mullanes
