First World Cup 2014 hattrick

[Zvonimir Boban]

Shakira

[football_master_94]

Gutted that Ecuador are done now

The Honduran 'defending' for Shaqiri's last two goals was beyond dreadful

[georginho_juventusygr]

So close from the next-year best player in the world.

First World Cup 2014 hattrick

Muller vs Portugal?

[JD nawrat]

Ecuador need two goals without reply now...

Shaqiri hattrick...still an overrated player

[Pukey]

First World Cup 2014 hattrick

Muller says hello?

[JD nawrat]

Muller vs Portugal?

Correct.

[gillsminnow]

Muller vs Portugal?

Yeah ignore me I'd erased Muller from memory

[gillsminnow]

Muller says hello?

Probably in German!

[sean_oc16]

Good play by Drmic for that goal, another assist for him.

[JD nawrat]

Two Bayern players netting hattricks... Robben could've had one too

[Pukey]

He can speak English?

A little bit, probably

[Andrew_]

Antonio Valencia sent off!

Similar to the Marchisio challenge last night. Correct call imo.

Err no, it's really not.

This one was a red.

[PMLF]

After this Switzerland vs Honduras game, the Arena da Amazônia will be back to hosting games with attendances of less than 1,000 per game, they should demolish it instead, at least this way the gov there would save some money in long term.

[JD nawrat]

Err no, it's really not.

This one was a red.

So was last nights

[gillsminnow]

A little bit, probably

Quoted me before I finished the edit

[Andrew_]

So was last nights

Shouldn't have been. We've been through this.

[JD nawrat]

Shouldn't have been. We've been through this.

Yeah and we both agreed you were wrong... have you forgotten already?

[Anti Spiral]

Switzerland not struggling with the heat of Manuas then?

[gillsminnow]

The Switzerland and Honduras fans swapping shirts

[Orzelek]

Christ, Honduras are crap at finishing

[georginho_juventusygr]

Nice shirt exchange there between Brazilian and Honduran fans.

[DJ]

The Switzerland and Honduras fans swapping shirts

Great stuff

[georginho_juventusygr]

The Switzerland and Honduras fans swapping shirts

Great stuff

Didn't one wear yellow?

Why the hell did they build it there then?

Surely, there's heaps of Brazilian cities with big interest in sport events?

[ringwoodrob]

oohhhhhhh France aren't that good

[JD nawrat]

Benzema

[Anti Spiral]

Ecuador Goalkeeper is a wall.

[gillsminnow]

Didn't one wear yellow?

I thought he was Swiss but you've made me doubt my eyes

[JD nawrat]

Why are the commentators trying to make out like this keeper's performance is great? They're all straight at him...

ha, commentators just acknowledged that themselves. About time.

[georginho_juventusygr]

Domínguez.

[ReggaeBwoy]

Paredes and Dominguez are free agents I think. Snap them up. Been really impressive. Especially Paredes.

[PMLF]

I have voted for Flamengo's defender Erazo as man of the match.

[endtime]

Really impressed by Ecuador, shame they couldn't finish their chances.

[Butts]

How on earth is that an Ecuador free kick

[PMLF]

Why the hell did they build it there then?

Political reasons, to please politicians friendly with the federal government.

Now after this party is over we will have several white elephants...

[georginho_juventusygr]

Domínguez again.

[aderow]

It's ok. Every country has them.

[Anti Spiral]

If Benzema was half decent at finishing he'd be in double figures by now.

[JD nawrat]

Giroud is a dirty bugger btw

[Andrew_]

Scummy Giroud with an elbow.

[JD nawrat]

If Benzema was half decent at finishing he'd be in double figures by now.

Yup. Probably had more scoring opportunities just for himself than any other nation in total has.

[ringwoodrob]

Naughty naughty Mr Giroo

[PMLF]

It's ok. Every country has them.

Ir's not OK as it's a waste of money (public money), regardless of other countries having them too.

Ecuador showing a lot of garra.

[georginho_juventusygr]

Ouch, that could be an error in substitution. Domínguez could be injured.

[aderow]

Ir's not OK as it's a waste of money (public money), regardless of other countries having them too.

Ecuador showing a lot of garra.

Yeah I know

And now even more of that money is going into Rio in 2 years

[Emersonlfc]

Just hit it all the keeper.

[Darren Moores Mum]

How long did the Ecuador keeper take to get rid of the ball then? Does he not realise they need to score?

[PaulHartman71]

Phil Neville going on about cramp there :D Its like something straight from the BoringMilner twitter.
