    Didn't even realise this was on tonight. Should be half decent I'd imagine.

    Any news on who starts?

    Had no idea this was on either. Can imagine it will be lame enough being so close to the tournament but hey, its football.

    I'm expecting GB to be dull and negative as they're managed by Stuart Pearce.

    Bertrand at RB, Richards at CB, Caulker on bench? Odd move.

    Richards was the best RB in the league last season and he's starting as a center back ........

    Hey guys, does anyone know a good stream for this?

    Ps: not bbc iplayer etc as I'm in South America.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,775 ✭✭✭✭Gbear


    Funny seeing most of the players not singing God Save the Queen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭Schism


    That Team GB jersey is a bit of an eyesore.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,949 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Poor from Neymar that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,763 ✭✭✭Jax Teller


    Nice


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,949 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭Schism


    Didn't see Sandro getting one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,949 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Hah, GB nearly score one very similar to the Brazilian goal

    Really dislike Pearce for some reason, he smacks of all thats wrong with UK football

    Jonathin Pearce is also a bit of a tit "Rafael will come under pressure from Danillo for the World Cup" eh Alves?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,949 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Neymar bringing out the tricks

    Brazilan GK doesn't look too good in the air, yet GB play the corner short??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,949 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Get the feck up Neymar

    What a ponce


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,972 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    What a "ponce" - pink card for him.

    edit - two ponces who'd have thought.

    Joe Allen looks very tidy.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,949 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    It didn't look like it from the first angle but yeah, good call from the ref


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 769 ✭✭✭Diego Maradona

    Along with Gareth Crooks, what an annoying loud cretin.

    Gareth crooks very passionate in the studio haha

    GB as expected out of their depth, brazil are very good, lovely tricks and flick ons and through balls. Could be 4 or 5 to brazil


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,909 ✭✭✭Neeson


    Gareth crooks very passionate in the studio haha

    Not the first time we've seen sex between two men on the BBC!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,627 ✭✭✭Sgt Pepper 64


    Nice little exchange between Oscar and Sturridge at the start, Oscar is cmoing to chelsea alright. Good tidy player as well, dictating tempo already (biased I know!)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,763 ✭✭✭Jax Teller


    Pearce play a rb at rb Jesus Christ


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 18,300 ✭✭✭✭Seaneh


    The BBC lads saying Juan's name wrong is wrecking my head, he's not ****ing spanish ffs, his name isn't "Haw-an".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,949 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    That's a great save even if it was offside!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,625 ✭✭✭flyswatter


    What are the bets J Pearce says England instead of Team GB at some point of the match?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,190 ✭✭✭✭IvySlayer


    Pearce is an awful manager. How'd he get this gig?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,584 ✭✭✭Rekop dog


    Joe Allen head and shoulders the best GB player out there today imo. Real clever footballing brain.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,516 ✭✭✭✭ArmaniJeanss


    Sack Pearce and give Beckham the managers gig for the Olympics.

    Help flog lots of tickets and it'll at least be a more entertaining GBR team.
