I give the edge to Netherlands hereā€¦better in defence and more pace in attack.

Just catching up on the Croatia goal, and what a terrible terrible goal for Brazil to concede at that stage of the game. How can you be defending a lead that late, have Casimiro and Fred on the pitch, and be that easily exposed.

I think thereā€™s your problem.

Goal Argentina

Does that mean Canada has a claim to 3rd place?

Argentina 1-0

Goal by Molina

Fox turns over to the sideline reporter to comment on what this goal meant to the Argentina fans and she opens with ā€œI cant describe what it means to these fansā€¦ā€

Ok, fuck off then.

Also, has anyone else noticed how terrible the replays are in this tournament? What they choose to show and where they start the replay from gives you a really narrow view of how the goal was scored. Numerous different angles of the guy taking the shot, but often the replay will start with the ball having already been passed to him

Is there an overall better midfield trio in the WC than Brozovic-Modric-Kovacic? Donā€™t think so. Individuals yes but no 3-man midfield to match up to that in quality and experience
