Brazil game was much closer then it seems.

In the end, 2-0 to Brazil. Costa Rica just couldn't hold up their nerves towards the end.

[Smbhayi]

Very Good game by Brazil...

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Match to start in 20 minutes.A key match for the group as it could determine Argentina’s fate as well.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Heartbreaking end to the match for Costa Rica.Doesn’t look like they’ll have a fairytale run like the one they had last time.

Akanji looks very impressive. Dortmund have a good defender on their hands.

[Hasan123]

Serbia have a good balance of youth and experience. Also they have a mixture of power and technical skill. They are an impressive team and much improved from when they started playing international football.

 

[Hasan123]

Swiss experience is enough.

[srh]

Shaqiri is damn good when he is playing in the middle

 

[Saj]

Super 2nd half from the Swiss.

Lovely to watch when they are in full flow.

Disappointed with Serbia though, some naive defending at times.

 

[DeadBall]

Serbia would be ruing the many missed chances. Got very complacent towards the business part of the second half.

 

[James]

Really enjoyable match. The Swiss equaliser was an absolute banger.

Another group looking quite open ahead of matchday 3. Brazil might go out.

 

[Saj]

Shaqiri is damn good when he is playing in the middle

Added a few million to his price tag today.

Everton are reported to be interested in signing him.

 

[DHONI183]

I cannot describe the utter joy of watching this Brazil team play, irrespective of the result. They play with the passion and the enthusiasm of a bunch of teenagers. What a sight it was to see to see Neymar cry after the victory yesterday. A good performance. Turned the game on its head after the 89th minute!

My third favourite team after Germany and Argentina.

 

[irfan]

Serbia denied an obvious penalty but great goals from Xhaka & Shaqiri, however not wise of them both being Kosovar Albanians to celebrate using Albanian nationalist symbols.

He's too good for Everton. Deserves to be playing Europa League at least, if not CL. Burnley should try and sign him
