Croatia Vs Brazil - Friday 9th December - 15:00

[Sly]

Having watched both of those games, this should be a Brazil victory by a few goals. 

[boots60]

Brazil will win but Croatia's defence will be less hospitable than South Korea.

2-0 Brazil.

Croatia is starting to creek. The Japanese pushed them to the max and it’s gonna take all week to recover from that runaround. it was very one dimensional lobbing balls into the box for peri peri to get his head on it. against Brazil it will be too much for them. That’s not to say the chances won’t come and if if they take them it will give the Brazilians something to think about atleast.

Roy Keane has set their country on fire. They’ve not taken his comments very well

seems to have sent their media into overdrive criticising ‘boring’ England etc

[KFS]

Another perspective… I think it’s unfair to say people critical aren’t passionate and have no joy… it’s probably the opposite. People caring too much about the game and see the dancing as a waste of everyone’s time and a tad disrespectful. Can see both sides

Well whatever else you may say about Roy Keane, you certainly can't deny that he's very English.

[Dan]

Only critique you could really have I think is the timewasting element, but don't really have an issue with it, it's the kind of thing Brazil are meant to bring to a World Cup.

I'm not on board the Brazil love-in and definitely wanting to see Croatia knock them out here (slim chance of it)

I'm not on board either; I find it very hard to like a team that has Neymar and Richarlison in it.

But despite that - they're certainly a lot more fun to watch than Croatia.

With you...

Forget Brazil's last game Croatia's game ,will bring them down to earth..

S.Korea were niave,I can't see Croatia being played off the park..

Though Brazil do have that canny knack & gifted players to finish games..

So Brazil Vs England in the final...

Holy shit are we STILL talking about dancing? Have people got nothing better to moan about?

 

Bunch of 20-somethings having a bit of fun whilst playing a game. Absolute shocker.

 

What sort of absolute helmet do you have to be to moan that Brazil of all teams were having a bit of a dance after scoring?

Nobody used to have a problem with Crouch doing the robot!

Me neither but  I’m also happy to see these tedious Balkan sides ousted as they bring nothing of value to the game IMHO 

[fazzyfox]

I hear the real reason Roy Keane left the Irish camp at the World Cup all those years ago was when someone suggested rehearsing a goal celebration based on routines from River Dance.

Disappointed he didnt do it at the 2006 world cup to be honest 

[RowlattsFox]

I have no problem with the dancing but if I was playing against them it would encourage me to leave a bit on them  

[SouthStandUpperTier]

Easy way to stop the Brazilians dancing. Don't let them score

Ex LCFC player Kramaric knocks out Neymar and Richarlison. What's not to like...........literally or figuratively, not fussed

[Vacamion]

 

Are there any photos of Richarlison smiling, like ever?

 

He's so mardy that he hardly cracked a smile after scoring what is probably the goal of the tournament.

He cannot quite believe he's been picked to play up front for Brazil - no smiling when you're constantly pinching yourself at your luck. To be fair he's making the most of his opportunity though.

I've got a feeling Croatia are going to cause an upset.

Well if they get trounced by Brazil, at the pub I'll be watching at, they'll be lots of upset...Croatians
