    what game where you guys watching?
    Colombia has been the most consistent team this whole cup. Brasil has yet to play a good game and this was their best performance. They canceled out James and Cuadrado the first 60 minutes.
    Even the casual observer can see Colombia/Brasil was the better game. Germany struggled against a weak French team that no one had high hopes for.

    Nevertheless Germany will be the favorite for many going into the semis with Thiago on the bench. If Neymar is not there, be ready for Oscar to step up.

    You could hear crickets in the stadium after the James goal.

    A weak French team? What in the world? They arguably have been one of the top teams of this World Cup until today.

    Referee was terrible. How da **** a knee in someone's back is not at the very least a yellow card????? God damn it, that just pissed me off.

    Neymar flops so much that when he actually got hurt, it took a while for him to get attention.

    No Neymar. No Silva.

    Germany will still make a game out of thus because they will play down to their opponent.

    This has been an exciting AND violent WC. Players from all teams have gotten away from certain yellow and reds cards.

    So much for home cooking in this particular game.

    Yup.

    Or we will have another Colombian killed due to a WC match.

    Spanish refs let too many calls go. Players got aggressive because they knew it was open season on Neymar. There was no call even on the play where Neymar was injured.

    I blame this on the ref more than the player who injured Neymar.

    Agreed. The ref was terrible. Failed to establish control at the beginning of the match and it got out of control.

    He should never be allowed to ref a meaningful game again.

    The open season was not exclusive to Neymar. Brazil was after James all game themselves and were intentionally bringing him down whenever given a chance.

    This WC, Brazil has been playing like Italy.
