Again fighting with the ref.BTW Who is no.22 for brazil?

Elias. Dunga is instilling his mentality on the players, expect to see more of this from them.

Elias is number 22.

We should of been booked for bullying the ref disgusting behavior.

 

[Sunny Mir]

Thanks. He's been a real douche the whole match.
And willians acceleration is soooo good.

This ref is out of his depth, would've been justified to send multiple Brasilian players off - he was getting physically assaulted...and it won't stop until he books someone now

poor ref, he probably won't feel like officiating another game after this

Exactly, I feel so bad for the poor guy. This scare tactic is not acceptable on so many levels, one being that it also affects how he refs the game. It's easy to understand that he can feel uneasy blowing the whistle in Argentinas favor after a while...

Neymar has left his scoring boots in Barcelona.

 

[Kohe321]

Elias and a couple other Brazil players should seriously get a few games ban after this game. You can't physically try to bully the ref for an entire game and get away with it like this.

Neymar and Messi decided not to score against each other. Because it would feel awkward when they meet again, and that is why messi missed the pen too. #Bromance

Diego Simeone as coach would be great

 

[Sunny Mir]

Robinho literally came on like 15 seconds.

Masterclass in bullying the referee. Dunga football is truly back

Diego Simeone as coach would be great

He's the Argentina version of Dunga. Their coaching mentality are almost the same.

A few points Dunga is undefeated against Argentina at senior level and this game in particular the first half highlighted, Brazil dire need of a deep-lying playermaker.

Only Simeone has an unbelievable record as coach.

As funny as it would be to blame this on Tata, Sabella's team has conceded 3 against Brazil's U21 Olympics team. Only difference between then and now is that Messi was in the form of his life and scored a hattrick back then and now he's turned into a rich man's Özil with the penalty skills of prime Baggio. The defense remains shat, doesn't matter that Argentina kept 10 men behind the ball, played at 150 % and tore their anuses in a few World Cup knockout games. That's not their normal level.

The opening 30 minutes Argentina were actually dominating. Some very nice combinations in the final third and good collective pressure. After FF and Zabaleta decided to assist Tardelli Argentina as usual when conceding first against decent opposition fell apart mentally.

TL;DR: Hopefully Nerman, Mascherano and Messi return without catching lung cancer and Tata doesn't feed them with Chinese barbecue.
