Modric gets away with a lot of yellow card fouls.

Modric gets away with a lot of yellow card fouls.

So does Neymar

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Good old Croatia, sucking the life out of yet another game

What’s the deal with those “OFFICIAL FIFA MERCHANDISE” advertising boards around the pitch? Who wants merchandise for FIFA?! It’s like buying an “I love Shell” or “EA rule” t-shirt. They are a necessary evil.

World Cup merch I can understand, but who the hell wants a “FIFA™” branded training top?

Must be some real mentalists out there.

That last one there was actually no contact, but generally, yes.

Aiming to win a World Cup on penalties in every knockout game

 

[WhingForPresident]

These players that go down and grab the ball before the ref has blown

Reckon Oliver must be scared of booking Neymar.

 

[The Wizard]

Did Petkovic win a footballer for a day competition? WTF

 

[Zeberdi]

Reckon Oliver must be scared of booking Neymar.

Yeah especially as he’d miss the semi’s if Brazil get through

 

[Zeberdi]

I want them to go through so France can smash them in the semi’s.

Absolutely terrible, reminds me of Marc McCammon

 

[jcdenton08]

One could argue he has this in mind with Modric too, who also could (should?) have been booked and would miss the semi final if they got through.

 

[pasty]

Yeah especially as he’d miss the semi’s if Brazil get through

Ah, didn’t realise that. Obviously shouldn’t make the slightest difference but I bet it does.

 

[The Wizard]

Absolutely terrible, reminds me of Marc McCammon

Then he did that bit of skill and created probably Croatia’s best chance, funny game football…

Neymar really is over rated.

Ran off and hid in a farmers league

Thank goodness for that.
