Imagine Brazil if Diego Costa played for them

Even more divey?

Boom. Exciting finish coming up

Thought that was going in

This is the real Brazil, been superb to watch in the 2nd half

Coutinho

coutinho!!

With the way things are going, I wouldn't be surprised if this goes to extra time.

Hope France beat Belgium. Boring football

Why no Dembele? His ball retention capability could be very useful in these dying stages

If Neymar focused more on playing football instead of diving he might actually win the Balloon d'ór someday.

Hazard is immense, unplayable on the counter

Looks like it's gonna be Thierry vs France.

Smash and grab from belgium really.

Top class save

Courtois, take a bow

Fuck this ref couldn't wait to blow the whistle

And Courtois ugly giraffe mug

Will he really celebrate if Belgium score/win?

Reckon he will be more than happy if they do, even if he pretends not to celebrate.

Fernandinho was garbage, how is he starting for Brazil. So was Jesus, he made those subs too late . Should have pulled Neymar too.

Neymar never got up to speed due to his injury, better make the most of the next Wirld Cup or he’ll be left in the shadows of Brazilian greats

France will be tough to beat in the final if we can get there.

The only team that could beat England are out. It’s coming home.

I think you'll find that Belgium have already beaten us.

OK it was a pen

Good game. Brazil actually played some decent football tonight, and Belgium was dangerous on the counter attack. Hazard is one hell of a player. Easily the best player still playing in the world cup.

No way Mbappe is levels above him

France v Russia final I reckon.
VAR to decide it all.

if there was a historical cockup involving VAR in the final, i wonder if it would kill the concept

I don't how there could be a VAR cockup. It may take a ton of time but the right call is generally made 99% of the time when it's called upon.

eh, the person making the call is still human. There was already one case in the prelims - guy heads a ball onto someone's elbow, was adjudged peno by VAR.
