    Brazil haven't been the same since the likes of Roberto Carlos, Cafu, Ronaldo and Ronaldinho in 2006.

    ...and Rivaldo.
    Rivaldo not at 2006 World Cup
    I'm getting too old. I read 2002.

    Keown is such a knob(2nd time I have said that this World Cup)

    "I know what Ronaldo would have done from there scored" yes Martin he scores every free kick he takes

    uugghh that cringy thunder clap again. I bloody hate Iceland so much - what does it tell you that they are making a team like Nigeria look ultra attacking in comparison... i'm so conflicted because I really want Argentina to get knocked out..

    Your soul must be black as coal.

    Obi Mikel taking the piss with time wasting when there is only a minute and a half left.

    Dont think he was timewasting, he looked in alot of pain(possibly broke or fractured his hand)

    Not sure that results helps them much. Croatia stick out their reserves, Nigeria win 1-0, Messi gone, Croatia tops the group, everyone is happy.

    Gutted. Really hope Iceland go through but it looks very unlikely. Starting Gunnarsson and Sigurdsson in the center of a midfield four after both had been out with injuries was a mistake, and they ran out of steam early in the second half. Also think Skulason should have started. I'm never convinced by Magnusson. They desperately, desperately missed JBG. Gislasson is incredibly handsome, easily the best looking player at the World Cup, but he was ineffective. Hopefully Croatia put out a weakened side allowing Iceland to get at them.

    They really need to do something about these players flinging themselves to ground in the penalty area.

    If anyone says that England or Charlton "bottled it" after simply losing a game then they need their head testing

    That Swiss bloke who just crossed the ball when he was through on goal... THATS bottling it!!
