Day 23: Uruguay vs France and Brazil vs Belgium

I'm really not that suprised how this match currently stands, however I originally didn't think much of the prospect that is a World Cup Final between both England and Belgium. Though since the knock-out rounds started I have tipped both teams to progress to it.

When was the last time Brazil were actually entertaining as per their reputation? 2010 and 2014 were a bunch of workmen.
 
Off topic but completely disagree. Just went there a few weeks ago and it's just a lot of western media and nato propaganda of how horrible russia is.

What, so it's "fake news" that Russia invaded Ukraine? That Chechnya (a Russian republic) have been rounding up and persecuting gays? That Putin is embroiled in political infiltration of numerous countries? His administratoin did not in fact assassinate a number of political opponents, including one in England, who must then be in on the propaganda conspiracy? Jesus wept, some people just cannot be reasoned with.

I guess because you went to some place in Russia and didn't immediately witness political assassinations or systematic persecution of homosexuals, you decided that it hasn't happened at all. Does that sound rational to you?

Plenty of people are more rational than that, and have decided not to attend the WC for these reasons. I know several such people personally.
 
Lukaku's movement and physicality are both brilliant but his ball control just leaves a lot to be desired IMO.
 
Just counted we have 9 players left in the tournament. Does anybody else have more ?

Fellaini
Lukaku
Fred
Jones
Young
Lingard
Rashford
Lindelof
Pogba

Still think Lukaku should be up front ready to get on the end of passes through.
 
Belgium looking to elbow their way to the final
 
Brilliant from Lukaku and class finish from KDB.
 
AHAhAHAHAHa..eat shit you samba cnuts, once again RedRom the hero.
 
Starting Fellaini is a mistake, against Brasil Belgium need 2 defensive midfielders when playing a 3-4-3

Belgium is playing pretty well with this set up and Fellaini is playing well.
Brazil needs to be very careful here.
