Oh buggery.

Could be great for the game but COME ON COLOMBIA!

[PMLF]

Brazil 1-0, Thiago Silva.

[el sid]

Thiago Silva scores! Woeful defending from the corner

[Anti Spiral]

That was quick :0

[darren1983]

Shocking defending

[craigcwwe]

1-0 Brazil.

Thiago Silva with his 2nd goal of this WC.

[CaptainPlanet]

A goal for all Brazil!

[BoroPhil]

bouncy bouncy

[ringwoodrob]

Goaaaaaaalllllllll,lets have more

[georginho_juventusygr]

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!

Terrible defending.

[Pukey]

Deary me that defending

[BoroPhil]

silky Brazilian skills

[JD nawrat]

This is a repeat of the Chile/Brazil game, so here's hoping it's even half as exciting as that one

[Noob21]

Terrible from the keeper and Sanchez

[Anti Spiral]

"We saw David Luiz bundle one in the previous game"

No we didn't!!!

[Pangaea]

Horrible defending

[JD nawrat]

bouncy bouncy

[el sid]

Carlos Sanchez completely falling asleep on that one :o

[cms186]

thats why you should always have someone on both posts from corners, so many top teams dont

[craigcwwe]

Shocking defending

Yep, Sanchez just let Silva run off him for a tap in.

[CaptainPlanet]

I want goal line technology confirmation.

[sean_oc16]

That's poor defending, everyone surged to the near post and left Silva to nick in.

Early goal makes this interesting to see how both teams play now.

[JD nawrat]

At the very least, I want James to score - would be great if he got the top scorer. Not fond on any of Messi/Neymar/Muller winning it.

[el sid]

Guarin going to strike this?

[el sid]

Another goal kneed in

[craigcwwe]

Guarin going to strike this?

Yep....straight out of the stadium.

[el sid]

Sooo close from Cuadrado

[JD nawrat]

Thought it was in!

[craigcwwe]

Looked in from Cuadrado that.

[Noob21]

Cuadradoooooooo

[darren1983]

Shocking corner there.

[el sid]

Was going in, brilliant block from Thiago Silva

[BoroPhil]

Guarin such an FM legend.

[thegr8anand]

Damn women

[Rob1981]

More happened already than in the entire France-Germany game

[JD nawrat]

A lot of space at the back of Brazil's team. Think it was 4v4 if Colombia retained possession there...

[el sid]

How on earth is that a foul

[Pukey]

thats why you should always have someone on both posts from corners, so many top teams dont

Seen a fair few goals that could have been prevented by that. Really odd that teams don't do it.

[JD nawrat]

James doing roly-polies

[el sid]

That's got to be a yellow, cynical from Ferna well after the ball went away

[el sid]

James doing roly-polies

I know you love Fernandinho since he's from City but that's a blatant cynical yellow card worthy foul ffs

[georginho_juventusygr]

Fernandinho keeps playing with fire.

[JD nawrat]

That's got to be a yellow, cynical from Ferna well after the ball went away

Ferna should have two yellows in the last two games, somehow gone without a yellow in the last altogether...surely won't do it for the whole 90 in this game and get away with it?

[JD nawrat]

I know you love Fernandinho since he's from City but that's a blatant cynical yellow card worthy foul ffs

I wasn't doubting that (although I can see why you might think that ) - I just thought James' reaction was completely OTT...perhaps why there was no booking given.

Commentator was saying in the game earlier today that David Luiz is the best player at the WC so far from the ratings etc that they use to calculate these things.

I will be annoyed if he wins the best player award.

James Rodriquez by far and away been the best player so far imo.

[JD nawrat]

Maicon still looks good on the ball tbf to him... just slow as **** now.

FIFA named James the best player of the group stages.

After his two goals against Uruguay, he will almost definitely win best player of the tournament if he gets to the semi-finals.

[el sid]

Cuadrado almost costing Brazil a second goal there

I thought he said best defender?

[craigcwwe]

Good job Armero was alert there otherwise, 2-0.

Would of been a bit of a scrappy goal to concede that.
