    How many more do the swiss need to score than Brazil to go top? Is it just the one more?

    Two more... Brazil +3 / Switzerland +2 at the moment

    Was more wondering about the booking situation. Having a look at the table swiss only need 1 more to go top on goals scored by the looks of it.

    Not sure if this may be of any interest to you guys? My mate has 2 tickets for the England v Belgium game this Thursday.
    He paid £300 each including flights but he didn't realise when he bought them months ago that it was going to be the same day as his wedding! If you are interested he’s looking for someone to take his place.
    It's at South Shields Registry Office, 4pm. The brides name is Nicola, she's 5'4", about 8 stone, quite pretty, has her own income and is a really good cook.

    I'd have stayed and watched the last 15 mins (as it turned out) in that bar if I'd been you, @PragueAddick. Glorious!

    Neymar has been pretty poor this tournament when you consider he’s supposedly one of the stars

    The Serb keep looks like an extra from Break Dance - Electric Boogaloo

    I’m trying to convince people of that.

    That looked Volleying height to me don't know why Mitrovic is stooping to head that - although it did come at him quickly

    Great going forward but Brazil look rather shaky at the back

    Seems a bit like Beckham in 2002 for me. Not fully fit but is the poster boy for the team so has to play. Remember that he hadn't played 90 minutes since February before this tournament, now he's expected to play every 4 days.

    Come on Serbia
  • When is the ref going to do something about the Brazilians going down like they've been bazookered in the mush every time they're fouled!

    Knew that goal was coming, Serbia wasted too many chances.

    Brazil do the ugly stuff well and have the quality to make 3 or 4 attacking balls work, whereas so many teams can't make that number of offensive balls without a crap one at some point. They are definitely one of the real contenders.

    ...Is it just me...? Brazil don't look THAT amazing - they had a 15 minute period there when they could have conceded three if Serbia had taken their chances. Neymar has been disappointing in a finishing sense, and they didn't really create too many clear cut chances. They were just quite lucky they scored a second when Serbia were on top that took the wind out of them and killed the game.

    Not really following the hype from the commentators there.

    Nah. They'd have remembered me later. As it is, I am clearly the only Englishman in the entire resort.

    Anyone see Costa Rica's penalty.

    Ruiz hit crossbar it bounced onto keepers head and went in
