An absolute beaut from Coutinho.
GOLAZO
Amazing goal.
It would be Phil, wouldn't it.
Sick goals continue
That looked like it hurt like hell when Thiago Silva got it in the face
Face would've be preferable to the ear. Oww
A Zuber goal
Swiss are gonna get a red card before this is over.
Edit: Maybe not now that they took 11 off.

That was a pk
Gotta hand it to the Swiss. They're stout defensively. Will this game be a mirror of Argentina-Iceland

Probably gets the call if he doesn't oversell it by jumping the wrong direction.
Swiss are attacking way more than Iceland. And their fouls seem way dirtier than Iceland's to me.La Bamba said:

Wow. That was a chance.
Still amazed they didn't call the PK. We had a couple of soft ones to open the tournament. Now two blown non-calls in back to back games.
Well...the favorites are off to a start
I've got no dogs in the La Liga fight, and I wanted the Swiss to win (initially), but man, that ref let the Swiss maul Neymar.

And rightfully so. If he didn't dive at every touch he would not have a reputation.
Neymar's gotta have to stop drawing fouls by jumping into his defenders if he's gonna be taken seriously. He looked like Kobe out there today.
I don't think he'll ever sit down at the table.
TO THE DROP ZONE!!!
Guessing you don't watch the NBA anymore. Or even the NFL where every DB and WR is acting now.texagbeliever said:JJxvi said:

It's a foul sure but no grown man is clutching his face after that little contact.
That being said, I despise flopping and I think of those people the same way.

LeBron James is the size of two grown men and he's throwing himself on the court like Willem Dafoe at the end of Platoon at least once a quarter.

Easy there! Soccer is my favorite sport haha. I also despise the dramatics in NBA and NFL. Soccer just has a reputation to overcome here in the states that would be easier if ppl weren't flopping after a hand to the face. That is all.
Maybe every time Neymar was grabbing his face he was lamenting taking dirty Qatar money

Haven't watched highlights yet, but have any of the traditional powers looked scary this year? All look beatable. Brazil still at 0-0 with Costa Rica at HT.
Not really. Germany obviously sputtered. Spain has looked meh, but have 4 points. Argentina is trash, which is ridiculous with that lineup. Brazil has also looked meh. France has 6 points, but haven't looked exceptional, given their first two opponents. This has been the craziest first week of a WC that I can remember.Brian Earl Spilner said:

one of my buddies made it on tv wearing his Aggie shirt.
Belgium has looked the best to me...they have the talent if they can put it together when it mattersAustinAg2012 said:Not really. Germany obviously sputtered. Spain has looked meh, but have 4 points.

Agreed. And Croatia... I guess I don't consider them "traditional" powers, though.gougler08 said:Belgium has looked the best to me...they have the talent if they can put it together when it mattersAustinAg2012 said:Not really.

Can someone explain why Douglas Costa doesn't start for Brazil?
I dont know why but I get a bizarre feeling that CR might actually win this game.
