R16 July 2 Brasil v. Mexico [R]

The tables have turned in this match. Brazil looks energetic. Mexico looks drained and on their heels.

Ochoa is going to have to keep them in this game.

 

Hell yeah

 

The LA FC MLS player with a nice shot.

 

What is it with the Mexican players not passing when countering?

 

Mexico regaining a little steam

 

That's not the test, though. It is whether the handling was deliberate, which has to do with distance to the ball, direction the ball is moving (hand to ball v ball to hand), and that infernal "unnatural position" business. It doesn't matter whether it has effect on the play.

 

Ochoa doing what Ochoa does

 

This is the most pragmatic Brazil since 1994.

 

Mexico just crapping the bed on most of their attacks now.

 

Casemiro suspended. Thats' going to hurt.

 

thanks, I'm aware. Did the player gain an advantage in doing is part of the 'deliberate.' As much as I wanted it to be a handling, in Salcido's case, it wasn't

 

Neymar hugging Guardado?

 

Yesterday was not a banner day for football but this is a fine match. Really enjoyable

 

Yeah, its a shame that that yellow team has no depth.

Yeah, he's not one of the players you want to lose.

 

This is beautiful football

 

Cassemiro is immense for Brazil
Will be missed a lot next game if Brazil goes thru

 

Mexico please go home. Dirty playing. We dont need that in a WC.

 

Who would play for Casemiro? Fernandinho?
He is not that bad.

 

So is Neymar having an epileptic fit? They should rush him to the hospital

 

Man i am watching the game with few Mexicans it hurts but this is beautiful game unlike yesterday

 

Where is VAR??

 

Faking it.
