Brazil v. Spain - Confederations Cup final 30/06/13

[Spun Cuppa]

Anyone staying up for this one?

Has the potential to be a cracker, if both teams play to their strengths

Flair and muscle v. neat incisive passing

I'm going for a 2-1 in the allotted 90 mins.

Yep will watch it no work tomorrow. I think a 2-1 either way.

Brazil need to step up their performance or they could get spanked

 

[Meade's Ball]

I'm certainly geared up for this latenight extravaganza. By which i mean i plan to have an afterdark coffee, conclude my internal tusslings over whether to continue to give the Returned a whole series go, and then lurk into the wee-er hours watching what i hope to be a real battle skill and fragments of might.

 

[Durlston]

Yes, staying up for it. I hope there's no extra time or penalties.

I've gone for Brazil to win 2-1 (9/1) and Fred first goal (6/1).

Is it on the radio anywhere?

Had a quick look not on the radio but on bbc1.

I'm watching it, two of the most flair football teams on the planet. I personally love watching Spain play, no idea how it's 'boring'.

 

[shaolinpunk]

It's just bloody typical that a football match should break out in the middle of these protests...

In all seriousness, some protesters have got on the pitch during the closing ceremony with banners and the crowd being very vocal (a lot of anti-Blatter stuff even though he hasn't appeared yet). Wouldn't be surprised if someone gets on the pitch during the game

Protesters marching towards the Maracanrana

Oscar and Gustavo in the Brazil midfield. Interesting

 

[LargeHadronZugzwang]

Thanks for looking Banjo, oh well, no telly. Guardian updates it is then. Mind you there's other matches to watch on YouTube

 

[BuddyBoy]

It will be Spain. I do, however, wish for them to be aggressively knocked of their perch.

 

[Quinney]

Tidy atmosphere

 

[Pavilionaire]

What a start, 1-0 Brasil.

 

[Spun Cuppa]

Yes, staying up for it. I hope there's no extra time or penalties.

I've gone for Brazil to win 2-1 (9/1) and Fred first goal (6/1).

 

[Paris]

That didn't take long.

You were right you said Fred.

 

[vegster]

Great start, going to be a good game now. Can they keep this pace up ?

Everyone needs to get used to these lates, some of the fixtures in next years World Cup are a 21:00KO local time, that's 01:00am here!
