Why isn’t pogba taking early bath? And half of both teams to be fair. Antics by both sides. FIFA must take a stance on all this. Every game is ruined by cheats and actors.

Once again the ref hasn't got a clue.

they need to sort out all the cheeky elbows and late tackles out early in games

This has been the most tedious game I’ve watched at this World Cup. France won at a canter without having to get past second gear.

Professional display by France without really being threatened by Uruguay, another lost bet though

I hope Belgium, I think Brazil. Even if Brazil don't play well, they have enough game changers to turn it in 30 seconds.

But I'd love it, just love it if Belgium got through.

Yes they have but I wonder how they'd react if they go behind with say 30 mins left.

reckon someone like Neymar could quickly lose it.

Not sure they'll go behind though.

Need to be brave, allow De Bruyne to play as he does for Man City, and Hazard needs to be at his best, while Lukaku needs to find his big game form.

Now if that all happens, maybe...

Belgian centre backs not the most mobile though, so I'd be attacking them.

Would love to see neymar booked early for diving. Then we actually might see the best of him.
Brazil will play well whilst winning/drawing but can they handle the pressure if they go behind. Weight of their nation, the worlds media and history on their shoulders.

Good game so far mind, admittedly more because nobody seems able to defend!

Yes...every attack looks like there could be a goal as defences go walkabout.

Too early to say that yet!

You can tell it's a Martinez coached defence

I had them down for a final place, so knew the fat lady wasn't singing.

I thought they would win tonight. Looking good so far, though Brazil are always capable of getting back into this.

More goals to come I'm sure.

They look cracking, holding play is superb which is allowing attackingplayers to bomb on. Belgium look the real deal tonight.

45 minutes from now it looks like being an all European affair.
