Akinfeev's attempt at a save for Korea's goal

Remember when people wanted him to replace Valdés?

Somehow it's positive the wc is raising the awareness in some of brazil's problems, but the wc is not the reason, or would make much difference about poverty here.

This explains the Man of the Match awards nicely It makes sense to me now

thought fifa went crazy(er) with yaya as MOTM...he was pretty chit.

makes sense now, just mindless fans voting for the names they know best.

You can what I can't stand about all this propaganda? The people that talk about it don't act. Can't believe how many hipsters I've seen posting crap about the World Cup on social media with their iPhones or Macbooks. If you want to do something about it, go ahead. Go to Brazil, got to any place where people need help for that matter even in your own country, to help them but stop being an annoying social media twat.

"Oh I will post this picture of the travesty in Brazil compared to the luxury of the World Cup and its players on my Facebook wall because I'm such a hipster humanitarian."

So if Spain draws today , they're pretty much out. Right ?

If spain draws then chile will have to get 3 points total from netherlands and australia provided spain defeat australia and end up with 4 points.In that case the results of the remaining matches will have to go exactly spains way for them to finish 2nd.

OK ,so Chile already won against Australia. With today's draw , they would have 4 points.

Since Netherlands will probably win against Australia , the standings would be

1. Netherlands 6p
2. Chile 4p
3. Spain 1p

So , if in the last game Chile loses against the netherlands with 1-0 or 2-0 and Spain wins against Australia , Chile would be equal to Spain. If both Spain and Chile have 4 points, doesn't Chile go through since they have better goal diff ?

Spain can hit australia for six and the goal diff may go to spains side but that is highly unlikely.You are right though that if spain draws then they are pretty much out.

Yeah Spain have no room for error now.

They must win both against Chile and Australia or they are out.

No xavi and pique in the starting XI!

Spain are playing as if they have not a care in the world. No passion or direction and Costa needs to come off. They also have no leader on the pitch.


If they don't progress more rest and refection for our players.

 

[FC B]

Barca declined steeply thus Spain did the same ! It is simple after all.
