Brazil played a much better game last night. I would say, the best team of the evening. Serbia was good too and tried very hard but unfortunately couldn't get past Brazil's defence.

When Brazil was 2-0, they slowed down and started toying with Serbia. I was like .... HEY GUYS, I Bet Over 2.5 goals Leh, Please score another!! LOL!

WORLD CUP 2018



England never play to lose: Southgate




KALININGRAD • Gareth Southgate believes that it is not in England's character to lose their World Cup game with Belgium deliberately to secure a perceived easier route to the final.



Trying to plot a path of potential opponents was "dangerous territory", the England manager said as he vowed to try to win tomorrow's Group G game in Kaliningrad.



His pledge came as it emerged that Belgium coach Roberto Martinez may make as many as 10 changes to his team, with Premier League stars such as Kevin De Bruyne, Romelu Lukaku, Eden Hazard and Jan Vertonghen unlikely to start the game between two sides who have already qualified.



Finishing second is being viewed as preferable to winning because of the likely opposition in the quarter-finals and semi-finals. The sides are level on points, goal difference and goals scored in Group G.



England are top by virtue of Fifa's fair play system - they have had two cautions to Belgium's three, which means that if the match is drawn without any further cards shown then they would go through as group winners.



That would result in a possible quarter-final against Brazil or Germany, assuming that they win a last-16 tie against the runner-up from Group H.



Some pundits have suggested England should collect bookings on purpose if the match is heading for a draw to finish second. However, Fifa insiders say they would take a tough line on any such unsporting behaviour and impose additional bans to any player who sought a deliberate yellow card.



Fifa's threat is not an empty one. Greece defender Kostas Manolas, was banned for picking up a booking in September to miss the last World Cup qualifying group game and ensure that he was available for the play-offs.



Fifa's disciplinary committee banned him for an extra game so that he missed the final qualifier and the first leg of the play-off against Croatia.



Southgate insists that England will not become embroiled in subterfuge. "For our country, that would be a very difficult mindset to have," he said. "We want to win every game of football we go into. I don't know how we would go into a game not wanting to win and not wanting to play well.



"I think that's dangerous territory if we start trying to plot and predict where we might end up. We had a really favourable draw, we all thought, in the last tournament (against Iceland at Euro 2016) and it didn't work out that way.



"I think we just have to keep preparing the team the right way, keep the momentum and I have to keep the squad involved. That's the one thing I think is really important."



Southgate has a dilemma over whether to start Harry Kane, who is leading the race for the Golden Boot award for the tournament's top scorer with five goals.



THE TIMES, LONDON


I have my reservations with Southgate's comments above.

Will England and Belgium go through the motions for a draw in tonight's match?

What do you guys think?

 

[theblackhole]

and so history has once again shows that the strong, the mighty the arrogant and the complacent can still lose to a small and determined tiny little team ..

so dont ever be howlian and treat others with disdain and contempt

asian south koreans have shown to the world that the mighty whites are the real paper tigers

keep falling down at a touch and playing softie football ...how to beat the tough tkd koreans..

germs deserve to lose ...and to lose shamefully...

they were so desperate and so panicky even the goalie went up to play striker left winger...that sealed their fate
the last nail to the coffin ...good-bye and better luck next time..

also may have lost billions of dollars...and the players won if it was indeed a very kelong game

the germs are not known to take bribes and play kelong...their national pride is far too strong for that kelongism

so they lost a real humiliation game...on the world stage....and many uncles aunties and ahbengs ALL LOST MONIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What do you guys think?

England is a nation of football pride
Belgium will go out and score
England will test their own defence
But scoring is still in their mind
To win for The Queen is an honour
To play like an English Gentleman is their style
Win or lose or draw, they walk with their chins high high
England will be happy with a scoreless draw ..

 

[theblackhole]

I see the Belgiums are hungry for goals
They are very quick in their attacks
and they behave like the albino panthers and cheetahs on the fields
good luck

 

[theblackhole]

I am sure many cried last night.

Not because Germany lost , but they themselves lost a lot of monies .

[theblackhole]

South Korea were outstanding - especially their goalie.

man of the match
the korean goalie and the goal post got voodoo to protect them
the german balls simply could not penetrate
they flew side and they flew above and never INTO THE NET
WHAT THE FUCK THE GERMANS WERE DOING!!!!
I ALSO THINK KELONGING WITH MILLIONS IN THEIR POCKETS ALREADY...

 

[theblackhole]

Hyundai and Kia beat Merc and BMW. Shiok!!

THE GERMANS were just too complacent, too casual, too over confident and just too howlian
treating the asians like dirt ....

 

[theblackhole]

karma is a bitch
history taking a vengence
the germans were humiliated on the world stage
all tears on the field and at home
what a tragic defeat ....so sad hor

 

[theblackhole]

Colombia is actually very strong team but the problem is I don’t trust them.
