    Just watching the Brazil / Switzerland game and I'm thinking that if Brazil were to get a penalty kick today that there is no way that a Brazilian player would miss 3 times in a row. I just can't see it.

    I think in regards to Italy, Scalvini is definitely someone that should have a permanent place on the roster. You don’t need to be a talent scout to see which way the wind is blowing.

    Hope so.

    Can we give Jorginho back to Brazil though?

    speaking of penalties. Get your bets in before kickoff. Portugal to score a penalty is +500

    great bet with the frequency of help they get

    Ref is Portuguese.

    I hate how Telemundo brings in random commentarors like forlan and hierro?? It's annoying, just use the regular announcers. They're fine.

    The American play by play guy sucks balls, so does Holden?? @falvo

    They're here because one unmentionable Brazilian couldn't score a penalty on them, twice.

    Switzerland bunker better than England.

    Guys do you remember the good old days when Portugal supposedly never won anything because they played progressive and really stylish and now they defend 1 goal leads and everyone thinks they're super good and stuffs?

    Uruguay knocking on the door, whatever that means.

    Anyone wonder why there was no penalty call on the Macedonia hand ball? Easier to have them eliminated there than make it blatantly obvious in an elimination game vs Ronaldo's team.

    I'm actually cheering for Portugal and Argentina lol Portugal because I'm tired of pundits focusing on a player and consistently shitting on him day in day out.

    Argentina due to the close ties to Italy.

    Everyone else can go eff themselves especially the big teams like Brazil.
