[Football] World Cup - Day Sixteen

[Marty McFly]

Korea 1-0 down and now facing a penalty. Not the best start, to say the least!

 

[Weststander]

Why do some folk here loath Brazil, fear or anger when pundits tell the truth about beautiful football?

This Brazil first team are a joy to watch, slaloming round dirty opponents like they don’t exist.

The opener was stunning.

Brazil started slowly in each of the group games, but they've gone from the off here.

Has Richarlison got a Harry Kane ankle issues, the way he went down without being touched.

Yes indeed.

I'm very glad they're in the other half of the draw to us.

Because for donkeys years we had Brazil this Brazil that shoved down our throats. And that's when they were rubbish. And then there's the horrible cheats like Neymar and richarlison. Turned the TV off when that pen went in.

I don’t loathe Brazil, remembering the brilliant players they’ve had especially Pele.
Richarlison is a cheat.

Lovely football from Brazil. Could do without all the showboating goal celebrations though.

 

[1066familyman]

Beautiful goal that!

 

[KZNSeagull]

Oh blimey

 

[Driver8]

Brazil into taking the piss mode. I fear for Korea here.

 

[US Seagull]

South Korea might be wishing for a mercy rule about now...

 

[Deportivo Seagull]

They look worryingly good

 

[hart's shirt]

Beautiful football that's a throwback to the great Brazilian teams of the past.

I really hope that Pele's watching this. It's the best tribute to him.

I love ‘em.

Too young to have seen the 1970 team, but 1982, 1994, 1998 and 2002, contained truly brilliant individuals.

I think bizarre hate is a really British thing, I could be wrong. Jealousy and hating superlatives, whether it be successful stars in these islands or across the globe. I wonder when it started? Did the average Brit on the building site or office in 1970 despise Tostao and Jairzinho, in 1974 Cruyff and Krol?

I call @Harry Wilson's tackle , I find his societal analysis interesting.

 

[Dave the OAP]

You all need to be watching Brazil here….could be 9 with no luck at all!

 

[hart's shirt]

The best news for South Korea is that they've now got 15 minutes without seeing any yellow shirts.

 

[London Irish]

Yeh it's good but poor old Korea are the worst team in the last 16

My first WC was 1970 and obviously England would win it. Until I saw them vs. Brazil.
One of the best best WC games of time but then realised we were actually 2nd best, if only by a sliver.

Richarlison may be a panto villain but I'd love him leading our line - he's as talented AF. Aggressive, streetwise, f'ing bloody minded - and hilariously he won't get in the Spurs side cos of old man Kane and face shield boy
