Brazil Need A Miracle

[gordiescotland1]

this is great Brazil getting humbled at last !! They need a miracle

[weecalf]

Embarrassed is not the word .

[ichkeria]

They aren't wonderful they are rubbish and they are getting the thrashing they richly deserve

[Mampara]

Gamblers in the Far East had Germany by 6 -1 !

Make what you will of that.

[ichkeria]

I think if Brazil lose this one 1-6 they'll be relieved :-)

Not a miracle, a reality check. There's more to kickball than dancing round the ball and feigning injury.
People injured to the extent that footballers pretend to be do not get up and 'run off a knock'. Commentators and pundits should be ashamed of themselves for perpetuating the myth that is football but they get paid for all that hot air.
It's all completely overblown, a kid's game played by overgrown children and gawped at by the gullible. Save your tears for those who don't get a ton of cash for win, lose or draw but pay through the nose to see these gods among men.
Back to the injuries for a mo, if that skinny wee diver really had a serious injury to the spine would he be dumped onto a stretcher like a sack of tatties by four fat lads then bounced up and down in that stretcher all the way to the medical centre?

Who ..kin fixed this?

[Arksided]

Douglas stick to your ballet Classes.

Germans gave them a well deserved spanking... Brazil are no where near the teams of past and only managed to get as far as they did by reputation and being the Hosts.

"...only managed to get as far as they did by reputation and being the Hosts."

That makes absolutely no sense at all. Unless you're saying they were given a bye for every match they played.

[royfromaus]

They were given substantial help from the officials, douglas9401

[Peter Pedant]

No they NEEDED a miracle
none available last night I am afraid

AND

being KNEED was the root of all their problems....
