MATCH THREAD - Brazil 3 vs Croatia 1 -Opening Ceremony Reaction - LIVE FROM 7PM - Thursday 12th June

Good point really.

I mean, who do people really want to win?

Would be pretty funny if Brazil don't!

It would be one HELL of an opening if Croatia can win like

I mean, riots on the streets and everything. Madness, pure unbridled MADNESS

Seeing as I'll be safely sat at my table on about my 4th pint of mild at the time, I'd probably find that entertaining. I'd feel for the peeps in Brazil though.

They won't lose though. They just CAN'T. The players will sweat blood to avoid it happening

In all seriousness, more excited for this than I was for mania. And I was stupid excited for that this year!

I got a bit scared of that bet.

If they play in like 'mustard' or something.

Haha i know mate, makes me feel they have some inside information, but think they will play in yellow can't think of any reason why they wouldn't, have you put the bet on mate?

Such a weird bet to offer that one

I didn't do it because what's to stop the kit man getting someone to put a cheeky bet on his behalf and then "bringing the wrong shirts" to the stadium lol

Nah I didnt. I'm not much of a gambler really but I was tempted for this.

Is the central midfield pairing of Rakatic and Modric the best in the World Cup?

 

[ste d' indica]

Can't see them starting the home world cup wearing the blue, but either way I think they're having Croatia by 2 or 3, start the tournament proper like.

Pirlo, Marchisio and De Rossi is pretty impressive too.

C'mon mate its Henderson & Gerrard by a mile, everyone knows that, haven't you been paying attention this season? They won they league while everyone else still had games to play. That's how good they are.



You might be right, incidentally.

It's not bad is it mate?

I reckon an early goal tonight to Brazil and we might see the birth of a new continent, they'd go f'ing mental.

3-0 Brazil, 1st scorer Fred has got a nice ring to it.
