Chicarito is not the player I remember
Day 4: Costa Rica vs Serbia, Germany vs Mexico , Brazil vs Switzerland
- Thread starter K2K
- Start date
They need to bring on Gomez if they want to keep crossing the ball in, Werner isn't much of a target man.
He spouts garbage, saying no contact when there clearly was.
Would've been very soft though.
Have to see another replay, but it looked like that to me too.
Also, such shitty subs from Mexico.
Marquez is still going? Bloody hell.
Marquez 
39years old, his 5th World Cup
39years old, his 5th World CupCause there was no? They showed it and he was on.
Legend comes on
This.
Was a pen, Hummels lost him and in desperation pulled him back and pushed into him.
No pen. Should've tried to make more of the chance on goal.
Hernandez has spent all day on the floor, it really goes against you in penalty situations when you do that.
Marquez must be about 46.
Clear push on Chicharito for me. When he slows down, the onus is on the defender to not get sucked into making a stupid challenge. Defender took the bait and should've conceded a penalty IMO.
I'm also shocked. I assume he had retired years ago!
Yeah, this is the type of game to go crazy, after a few beers.
I'd be shocked if Germany don't get at least one. The Mexicans look dead on their feet.
Smalling is a much better defender than Hummels. Hummels is a better footballer though.
I do think Hummels is a bit overrated. He isnt quick or strong and prone to mistakes. He is good for teams who dominate and dont have to defend too much. Boateng is a much better player imo.
Losing any will to counter, after you destroyed the team with it in the first half.
Could Germany surely become the THIRD straight defending WC champion to go out in the group stage? Italy and Spain managed this last two world cups
Captain at 5 WCs Rafa Marquez
Marquez still going
That seems too defensive too fast from Mexico. Also Chicha has actually been great in terms of hold up play.
This is what I don't get...
Yesterday Griezmann gets a slight tap on the back of his leg, and goes down like a sack of shit...everyone reckons it's a definite penalty
Today, Hernandez does down with someone pushing down on his shoulder... No penalty or VAR or anything...
No era penal! Remember?
Had to give Rafa Marquez an applaud.
No less than the contact on Ronaldo for his pen against Spain.
I meant, if they gave offside, they didn't consider the penalty claim, but there was no offside.
5 WC for Marques. Bloody hell,
Is it Draxler over him?
Brandt, Draxler and even Reus over him. Sane has had a better season than them all and yet he's the one who stays at home. Crazy.
How I saw it too. Could've easily been a penalty.
"hardly any contact" is just people talking nonsense, as usual
Hang in there.
16 minutes plus added time. Long way to go for Mexico.
Picking the wrong pass but making key runs with the ball and showing very good touches. Key to starting them, though the final ball has been off all game for them.
He is the type of player you hate if he doesnt play for you. I noticed it a bit this season that he actually is a really annoying player... i used to really like him when he played for United too.
They have both quality and experience in abundance.
Nice try
Nice shot there.
Reus has done more in ten minutes playing out of his favourable positions than the rest of the offense in the whole game. Who would have guessed.
Kroos is ridiculously good, you let him 10 seconds alone and he finds the way to hurt you
Completely forgot Özil was still on the pitch.
