Me,Ganso, and elitedam?

No me   (yeah I know there are 5 now but I think it was 3 after I voted   )

Gil agrees anyway.
All the NTs who host  the WC are helped in WC history , who more  (South Korea 2002 ) who less.
Brazil had a ridicolus penalty in first match , but for the rest it was enough standard if we consider the WCs.
If Brazil will win the cup it can be sad for the game style expressed not exactly worthy of Brazil , or for other things, but I don't see conspiracy and total farce.

You were lucky to beat Nigeria and were utter shit against an average German team you clown.

Oooooooh, shit's going down

Where is this German hype coming from by the way? They've been shit in nearly every game since Portugal and this is against average teams.

At least Brazil have beaten two of the toughest teams in the tournament.

So much this   
They certainly can beat Brazil but I don't know why people act as if they have to win this game. Just a few days ago they didn't manage to beat effing ALGERIA in 90 minutes.

I can tell you that exactly.
The German hype is coming from the fact we won a game a couple of hours ago.
Before the game we were deemed probable to go out against a strong France, who now after the game are deemed shit, inexperienced and not worth more than the quarters.

Also apparently people dislike Brazil even more than they dislike Germany, which is a bit harsh on our Brazilian brothers and sisters tbh.

We'll win this though, I'm actually pretty confident about that.

You can insult France as much as you want because I don't give a shit about your biased and meaningless opinion #SayNoToRacism

Your predictions about France seem very accurate though, I'm going to call you Nostradamus from now on.

Germany have been so shit since Portugal, their defence is garbage.

Brazil to win this, with or without Neymar.

Welcome to GL brah, teams never win because they played well it's almost always because the other team are crap.

I dont know where this internet logic of us not deserving to be in the semifinal is coming from.we were overall better than chile, we destroyed Colombia today in the first half and ptb in the second.Germany have been just as bad as us, if not worse considering expectations.And to top it all off a lot of people are saying that the refs are carrying us

Yes, it seems like that.

The thing that I really don't understand is some people's apparent need to make these constant definitive reevaluations after each game lol.

Because if two teams meet which you'd rate roughly equally strong before the game, 50:50 - and then one team wins (because in a knockout game one team WILL win lol), why must that mean that you have to be revisionist about the chances and claim the losing team was worse all along?
Doesn't make sense.
Even 50:50 decisions will come to a decision, lol.
"Heads or tails? hmm hard to decide, I'd say it's 50:50". - *coin thrown* "Oh it's heads - well no wonder, I've always known tails is shit lol"

Loooooool, same logic applies to players

Lost count over how many legit players have been dismissed by local experts after a poor 45 minute game.

'Cuadrado can't dribble and Pogba's worth 20M max'

@Ganso, the argument is not that Brazil is not deserving of going through. It's more like that this game vs Colombia and the game against Croatia has been majorly affected by the referees poor decisions. Brazil may have been the better team in both matches, but the other teams still had their chances until the ref screwed them.

Marcelo got this don't worry.

Step up and be the one to win Brazil their 6th on their own soil you piece of shit. Become the modern day version of Garrincha and forever cement your legacy in Brazilan and World Cup folklore.

Is that too much to ask?

Just two games of James-esque performances ffs.

Before the WC i was hoping goosebumps performance by Germany , but they have been controlled , attack minded but ineffective and poor. I did not expected much from Brazil this WC but since they are playing in their home ground + with Neymar - Silva form they are surviving.

On paper its Germany to shine but in football you never know. Oscar Hulk Luiz to make history if they can.

Well, Germany were ineffective enough to get into the semi final. Mind you, we do create sufficient amounts of chances - now let's just hope that in the next match, there will be fewer sitters missed.
