Clear hand ball by Croatia gets missed - Mexico needs the first goal badly

The 2nd Neymar goal was sort of against the run of play. Cameroon were attacking.

As far as I'm aware, it's only punishable with a yellow card.

There were some people on here the other night with actual refereeing experience, so I stand in deference to them if they say it can be a red card offence.

A simply great player blessed with Pure speed and creativity, Robben sure makes a mockery of the game.

Another goal now for Mexico would see them top the group...

Mexico might win the group at this rate.

Mexico winning the group would be great!

Netherlands vs Brazil would be a good matchup

In Belo Horizonte and watched some of the game on the streets. Pretty nuts, thousands of people drinking and watching. This is a few thousand people trying to watch a large tv inside an unofficial fan zone:

Spoiler!



There's a lot of security and riot prepared police, but with the amount of people and booze being consumed, could see things going very badly if Brazil were to go out.

Oh there's absolutely going to be a riot if Brazil doesn't win it all. Only question is how big/violent will it be.

Agreed. I've been watching World Cups since I was a boy in 86, and this one has had more attacking football than any I've seen before.

Whether we see more of the same going into the knockout rounds remains to be seen...

And as soon as England got knocked out, all the pressure was off and I can now enjoy the tournament as a relative neutral.
