Suarez, please have mercy on these poor men.

 

[Jägermeister]

Costa Rica!! Really well played and a deserved win. A joy to watch an underdog becoming the star of this WC.

 

[Flavia]

Italy played really badly, no real effort to win. Costa Rica the big surprise this wc. Impressive.

 

[Neymessi]

Had italy won today then England vs costa rica would have been the most enertaining match TO WATCH.They both play on counters and 2 counter teams sometimes ends up with many alternative counters from both sides.Both teams were playing great but now england is out and CR is in so I don't think both will play their hearts out.

Costa Rica in the Round of 16 can play against a team like Japan or Ivory Coast, they have their chances to advance to the quarters .

 

[Ghost]

Good for the game.

Lethargic crap performance from Italy. Just awful. Tons of misplaced passes and ridiculous amounts of offside runs. The general decision making was awful from the beginning and you could tell that the players concentration levels were really poor.

-

On paper, Prandelli's subs were good but all three of them produced shocking performances and looked like the worst players on the pitch. Insigne proved that he's not ready for this level yet. He's just too selfish and not individually skilled enough to produce stuff on his own against organized defenses.

Buffon

Darmian Barzagli Chiellini De Sciglio
Pirlo De Rossi Marchisio
Cerci Candreva
Balotelli​

Should be enough to beat a poor Uruguay side.
