Could help. But he's been at his worst when he's had a chance to score or create a chance for himself.

I couldn't put my finger on who Thiago looks like, but I figured it out, its Milos Raonic!

Pretty good half, I hope Colombia can find a goal in the 2nd.

He's also been pretty bad IMO.

Being completely blind to razilians rushing the ball in the Columbian free kick was just incredibly inept.

I think Hulk has been way more impressive than Neymar in the first half.

What've you got against Fred and Jo?

I'm waiting for the Brazilian 'Homer.' Granted, he'd be no Socrates.

Columbia has had some ok chances that needed an extra touch around the box in the first half.

They'll likely have one or two more if they can keep running with the ball forward as they have on occasion.

Neymar exchanged shirts with a Colombian at half time whistle...never seen that.

The shockingly poor defending by Sanchez on Silva, would likley be considered by the ultras in Colombia as unacceptable and egregious as Andres Escobar's blunder 20 years ago in the US...if the score holds.

While true, the difference is that this team isnt being bankrolled by Pablo.

Colombia is also a very different country than it was 20 years ago.

I was just thinking that I've never seen Luiz do anything on free kicks other then hit it really hard into the stands. I guess that's why he takes them.

Great shot.
Foul or not to setup the kick....debatable, I dont think Rodriguiez touched Hulk.

Pretty sketchy and ultimately, cruel, to have the play go on for almost 10 seconds before the offside flag goes up for Columbia a minute earlier.

Also, the ball went off a defender jumping in the box, and then played by people who weren't offside compared to that defender.

I know I'm a soccer newb, but I thought that negated the offside.
