Cracking game, Brazil should have had a penalty. Belgium's front 3 fantastic Neymar was pish even ignoring the cheating hardly anything he tried came off and gave the ball away 70% of the time. France v Belgium very hard to call and whoever wins will be tough opponents when we get to the final.

I don't think Russia will get past Croatia, but worringly right at the start of the tournament I picked Croatia to win it, and not as a dark horse pick either.

It's France for me this year. They're the most complete team, good in all positions and adaptable to different tactics. Having said that, I'm also impressed at how Martinez has handled the Belgium squad and I don't think we've disgraced ourselves either. All in all though a great world cup, most games have been great to watch and plenty of upsets always makes it special.

Yeah I think the Frenchies and the Belgies have looked the most complete sides and neutrals would probably say that should be the final. I'm more confident of beating Sweden than I was us beating Colombia, which counts for feck all and potentially leaves me open to greater disappointment. However should we get through I'd much rather face Russia than Croatia, home advantage aside, Croatia simply have better players and several players that can hurt you, in fact IF we get through today I'll feel more confident against Russia than I am aganst Sweden today, not often you get draws where that kind of weakening opposition each round opens up for you.
