    Chile playing so negative now, happy with the draw and too take their chance with the penalty shoot out.
    Even if the Brazilians have the The-Incredible-Hulk playing, even he can’t break through

  • 392

    Lottery now… to hold your nerve or go home.

  • 393

    Both goalkeepers are world class.

  • 394

    @ robzim:
    Chile played for the shoot out, so they will be happier

  • 395

    Shit, and I had Cesar as my fantasy goalie then subbed him.
    Nice save

  • 396

    And then Brazil miss

  • 397

    And Cesar saves again
    Lol, what a weird shoot out

  • 398

    And The-Incredible-Hulk misses

  • 399

    by the hair of their teeth

    Brazil just make it.
    Can’t remember ever seeing such a shambolic penalty shoot out

    Colombia v Uruguy
    Uruguy without Dracula, so I picked the drug cartel to win 2-1

    Frantic stuff.. Neymar nearly lost his nerve when he “stumbled” during his run up…. good for the tournament that the host nation is still alive..based on todays performance they stand little chance against the likes of Germany or even Holland.

    @ nortierd:
    Chille?

  • 407

    @ grootblousmile:
    Uruguay will certainly miss Suerez, maybe they rally and try to play for him, but without him they will struggle

    Nah, here is ok.

  • 409

    @ robzim:405
    Yep, better that they are still in, but Chile played so negative in the extra time, at least Brazil tried to win the game, deserved it IMO, just because they were more positive
    Bad round for me to drop Cesar out of my fantasy team

    I hope Colombia beats the Vampires.Suarez’s grandma and coach reckons he’s been hard done by.

    There are many jokes about Suarez on the social networks at the moment.

    Many are funny..others not so funny.

    I do not know where to place the ” I thought Uruguayans only eat rugby players” with reference to the Andes plane crash “joke”.

    Haven’t seen that one.
    I’ve enjoyed the pictures though..from the Hannibal Lector outfit to the one where Draculas wife asks him since when he started taking an interest in football

  • 415

    Drug cheat and “hand of God” Maradonna also reckoned Suarez has been treated unfairly.

  • 416

    Jeez, the pictured from Brazil at the Copa Cabana beach looks like Durban beach over New Years

  • 417

    Well, you got a Soccer Thread anyway!

    Go chat there!!

    Speaking of drug cheats, you think Colombia will beat Uruguay?
    Wasn’t that Valderama character who’s house was burned down after missing a penalty from Columbia?

  • 419

    @ nortierd:

    Not sure if it was his house…

    I cannot call this match… 50/50…

  • 420

    Speaking of houses being burned down – imagine if Neymar missed that penalty and Jara netted his…Armageddon right there and then.
