Brazil v Netherlands, World Cup 3rd/4th Place Playoff, 9PM 7/12/14

Apparently when you score your first international goal it is your first goal because you had not scored it before.

Good old Luiz.

Manach

The tones of exasperation from the RTE commentators on the subject of Brazil are certainly entertaining.

Corholio

Shocking from Luiz there. You're told when you're around 10 not to do what he did. Would be amazed if Scolari survived after this cup, its shocking that it seems he will.

Imagine that, the away team at a football match getting jeered(!)

Is the lad Maxwell the same Maxwell who was a minor RnB singer from the 90s?

Defensive header back into the middle of the box....what a defender!

PSG are kicking themselfs watching that stick.

Burt Macklin

Can any Dutch player realistically win top scorer? The opportunity could be on here.

I wouldnt be too surprised if some PSG official turned up beaten in a sack in the Seine

It's called getting behind your team most teams tend to do it. I presume if you are at a match of the team you support you applaud the opposition.

Sorry just realised we're a few minutes behind. Thus the late posts! Pressed pause and said we'd flick on after apres match but brian kerr is just too entertaining. We dont want to miss a thing he says....

I'd imagine they're scrambling to see if they kept the receipt.

Why was Luiz up there?

Umadbrah?

Brazil are awful

It was, but it was also a definite foul and definitely it penalty. The trademark Robben sniper shot really irritates me, but so does when people say a definite penalty wasn't one just because of a theatrical fall.

But he was on about the one where he ran into the back of the defender.

Don't be ridiculous.

It isn't just Luiz though, all the Brazilian defenders went after the ball, standing beside Luiz. Someone needs to mark the edge of the box - same place that Khedira and Kroos scored from. Gustavo standing beside Luiz for the cross with noone around them.

Nobody is prepared for what might happen around the edge of the box.

Van Persie needs two more to go level with Hames Rodriguez. Robben needs three.

Robin van Persie needs two more to be joint top

Oscar blew his load permanently by September 2013, will he ever recapture that form?

Robben on 3, Van Persie on 4 now thanks to the penalty. James Rodriguez current top goalscorer with 6

Luiz still running forward after conceding 7 to Germany and 2 already here, yaysus he`ll never learn

Rayne Wooney

RVP on 4 and Robben on 3

Rodriguez top with 6

Maybe they can get £50 million in store credit for the Chelsea shop?

Chagan

Brian is right, if only Robben knew how much his diving annoyed people he'd surely stop.

blueser

I'd love to know how PSG thought sideshow was worth £50m; the guy is a joke. He couldn't mark a letterbox. And is the crowd made up of refugees from a One Direction concert?

The game kicked off and they immediately booed every Dutch possession. That's quite unusual .

Ulysses Gaze

They think Luiz can play as a defender?

Kerr's commentary is almost as pewer as the game

take everything

It's like Brazil have intermittent flickers of skill which they can't sustain as a group.

vidor

Wish Kerr would go back to commentating like he did for the whole tournament. Just sounds incredibly daft tonight.

Brian Kerr has some stats in front of him and he's going to get through them all before this game is over.

No, Kerr is the most knowledgeable of all of them.

Brilliant man.

In fairness. If he was just less dramatic about it, no one would care

Did u ever watch a Liverpool utd or real barca or Celtic rangers game. It's called support.

No it's not. It happens all the time. I find the cheap picks at everything Brazil a bit sad to be honest. Mostly just because they don't have a very good current team.

deisedude

Brazil are lucky they are not playing North Korea. They'd lose 20 nil

Noticed it in the semi final as well but Hollands final delivery into those advanced positions mainly kuyts but Schneider as well is appalling
