    Overrated imho.
    This is an honest question. Why did you expect Brazil to be better? Reputation of the past or seeing them win the Confed Cup?

    Just wondered because I never really felt this team was likely to win the world cup. They still might of course but I dont see all the hype.

    I like Argentina, France, Germany and Spain to be as good if not better.
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    For God's sake, it was just the first match and we know that 2 games aren't alike.
    Let's be happy the opening match was quite entertaining ( despite me falling asleep at the beginning of the second half ) and not the usual dull of other editions.

    Yes, let's move on and look forward for tomorrow's revenge between Holland and Spain. And let's hope my countryman Rizzoli, doesn't ruin such a great match !

    None of the above

    Because Brazil has been named as the favourite team to win the cup by 99% of of the media.
    So I had higher expectations.

    I was wondering how long it would take for the first dubious penalty to be awarded in this World Cup and already we have an answer... 71 minutes.

    The fact that such an obvious dive could be seen by everyone in the world except the referee is typical of an organisation who answers to no-one and awards World Cups on the basis of bribery to countries with names that sound like musical instruments.
    The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

    as usual silly refs in big games...nothing new.
    Brasil played decent stuff though, Neymar and Oscar especially.. Hulk was a passenger
    Tito Vilanova = :champion:
