World Cup 2014 Thread

I don't think they invested too much in the sound system but what the heck it's the usual fayre and enjoying the mix of high tech and naff dancers. Can't all be as good as London 2012.

Brazil v Croatia, the line ups:

Why are England training in bras.?

De Sciglio is out of match against us. Shame for football and him, but another advantage to England. No Rossi, Montolivo, El Sharaawy, De Sciglio.

Anyone watching ITV at the moment? Definitely a bullet hole in the glass behind Cannavaro's head in the studio overlooking Copacabana beach. Bit worrying.

People were pelting it with rocks

How about this scenario that sees Spain knocked out? It's all plausible until Chile vs Netherlands. Even that might come off though...

Netherlands 1-0 Australia
Chile 0-1 Spain
Spain 1-0 Australia
Chile 1-0 Netherlands

That's the fourth victory from behind in this World Cup so far (with only 8 games played). No draws so far either.

Brazil 0-1 Croatia -> Brazil 3-1 Croatia
Mexico 1-0 Cameroon
Spain 1-0 Netherlands -> Spain 1-5 Netherlands
Chile 3-1 Australia
Colombia 3-0 Greece
Uruguay 1-0 Costa Rica -> Uruguay 1-3 Costa Rica
England 1-2 Italy
Ivory Coast 0-1 Japan -> Ivory Coast 2-1 Japan

Following the pattern, the next come-from-behind win will come in the Argentina-Bosnia match tomorrow night.

Last World Cup was awful.

"Rumours aplenty in local Ghanaian media tonight about a player mutiny in Brazil. I cannot independently confirm."

Little bit of flooding outside the USA v Germany match...
