Was a pen but guess all their diving counted against them!

That’s a great point. They’re like the boy who cried wolf

These Belgium counters have been sublime

Got away with that, possibly lost control of the ball by the time Kompany stupidly hacked him down?

That was my only thought. Definitely got the man, but the ball looked gone. Even then, that should still be a foul though? 

[Unabomber]

Think it will end 1-4

[coolhandfox]

Penalty all day long....

 

Belgium Vs England final?

Some of our members think Felleini isn't good enough for Leicester 

[Vacamion]

 

Neymar's World Cup show reel is going to be a goal, an assist, "the roll", the "just been tasered" floor convulsions and the "flying through the air for no apparent reason".

 

[Max Wall]

Got to say, I'm surprised the authorities didn't take the opportunity to give Brazil a penalty there. No way is top level football fixed.

Don’t be ridiculous..

Neymar has done square root of fvck all. Such a frustrating player at times and not because of his diving.

It would have been a freekick elsewhere, right?

Think it wasn't given as Jesus had kicked out off the pitch before the foul

[Sir Shep]

Love this counter attacking, just sex on a stick.

Crazy, I’d love him here.

Just done a freeze frame on a replay and the ball was on the line when contact was made

 

Edit: looks like it was even before it was on the line, should have been a pen.

can see why the Jesus one wasn't given - the ball had already gone out by the time he was touched/tackled/fouled by Kompany.

Spot on. The ball was dead. So no penalty.

I'd say so. Bit easier to give it in the centre circle than the penalty area though.

Coutinho been poor

I agree, not a special player against a packed defence, and always needs a million touches. One word overrated

Great year. Better couple of years before though.

You have time for that during a match?

I’m watching this with my 8 year old boy and even he thinks Neymar is a nob. 

 

I’d much rather my lad look up to the likes of KDB as a role model.

Or Vardy

I believe Belgium will win because it's 2-0 in the 60th minute 

I always have and posted as such last night, to much mirth. However a goal for Brazil would make things interesting.
