Just a notice for the first time of the Brazilian motto on their flag- “Order & Progress

Brazil should win, but Chile is dangerous. Also, I have a certain amount of cynicism about the politics of football. FIFA and all the big money involved in the World Cup have a vested interest in a Brazil win. It remains to be seen if corruption creeps into the game with with the refs or the players. Glad to see the English ref who is good and fair based on his past performances I have witnessed.

Chile is the shortest team in the tournament. They average 5 feet 9 inches. Every cross and free kick is a chance for Brazil.

LOL! Online dictionaries say that isn’t a word but maybe it should be.

Anyway this is the round of 16 for people that don’t know.

That sure looked like a good goal to me by Brazil, that was harsh.

You could argue that the Big Guy cradled the ball with his upper arm…

If they follow the “script” so far this tournament, someone will score from now through stoppage time…

Brazil sucks today.

Based on how Chile has played, they should advance.

Penalty kicks make me nervous.

I’d be as happy as a clam if Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Costa Rica advance this weekend....

Penalty kicks are a crapshoot. Unfortunate that it comes to this.
