Ochoa easily THE game maker in this match and my god did he fish those couple chances right out of the net.
Such a shame though the mexicans couldn't capitalize on their strong game, because they really had the brazilians boxed in a couple times.
Ochoa played absolutely fantastic, not often that kind of goalkeeping is seen. He kept them in the game and if they had been a bit lucky they might've actually been able to score. An entertaining match even if i certainly didn't expect this result
It never felt like Brazil were actually going to score in the second half. Even when Thiago Silva had that header from the corner late on it just never seemed like it was going to go in. There seemed to be a lack of conviction and they looked a bit lazy going forward.
Brazil disappointed/Mexico surprised me. I really thought Mexico would score at least once.
Doesn't matter though, zero points again ![]()
Very fast-paced game and enjoyable to watch.

Isn't Ochoa a free agent? What a guy.

Que porra velho! Brazil is killing me. Ochoa easily player of the match. Thiago Silva and Neymar went all out, but they couldn't connect. Marcelo was all over the place and p!ssing me off.
Brazil was actually good in this game. They had passion and they would've won if there wasn't Ochoa. A bit of luck and kicking Fred out of the game would've helped much.
I think Ochoa might not have too much trouble finding a new club.

Fred was subbed too late. He's a good finisher when the ball is already in the box, but that's about it. I just read what I wrote

Not the prettiest goal, but a goal is a goal XD
10 POINTS!! 10 POINTS!! I GOT MY FIRST 10 POINTS!! Thaaaaaaaaaaaank youuuuuuu Russiaaaaaaaaaaa
My honour restored ![]()
Congrats, Cerrydd...! ![]()
I'm still waiting for my first 10 points... ![]()
Iran ruined the world cup... IRAN CURSED THE WORLDCUP!
Brazil can't be the champion. It doesn't have the spirit. I realized Korea-Russia would be a draw but it was too late to change prediction.
I should be happy for 5 points per night, right?!
I'm flattering to deceive again, I think I finished top of the groups in the last World Cup and European Championships only to completely fall apart when it mattered. I'm like the Dutch team of these pools, look good early on but never seem to win the bloody thing.
And you would be correct for you are no longer on the top of the scoreboard. Thanks to Russia and South Korea CrazyRah and bFootball passed you.
10 POINTS!! 10 POINTS!! I GOT MY FIRST 10 POINTS!! Thaaaaaaaaaaaank youuuuuuu Russiaaaaaaaaaaa

Nicely done, you doubled your score yesterday ![]()
Now if only I could get a 10 pointer..
I didn't see any of the games yesterday (I really have to little time in a day..) but saw some saves of the Mexian goaly and he was absolutely the man of the match.
Belgium dissapointed a bit in my eye but they still won.
Luckily I will be able to watch the games tonight with some friends so let's hope it is an interesting one ![]()
Russia and South Korea both looked terrible if you ask me. Too bad one of those jag teams will make it through a weak group. The Korean goal once again proved the old adage 'just hit the net with your shot'.
Wait, what!? I'm in the top? How did this happen! Quite suprised since quite a few of my predictions have been horribly off, some in quite spectacular ways too. Suppose i should enjoy the moment while it last, because it will end in a crash
Heh, I'm only 30 behind. That's not so bad.

GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL! Cahill.
One thing I really like about the dutch especially Robbin is that instead of flopping around when challenged and hoping for a foul he forces his way through tackles, calssic example on his goal. A lot of players from other teams would be doing the grand flop when challenged.
Please be draw, please be draw.
I don't care about my prediction, I just want Spain to qualify!
Clarke Carlisle commentating for ITV seems to have been sexually aroused by Tim Cahill's goal.
That's totally one of the better ways to score a goal!
The ozzies are giving as much as they are getting so far.
Ozzies are F'ed now with that yellow Card to Cahill.
