I really thought after the first game Brazil would have improved, but they look very ordinary. A team easily beaten by Mexico ( the scoreline lied) and Croatia shouldn't be giving Brazil problems. Yes, they may go on to score a lot more and comfortably win the game but .... not impressed.

As it stands Brazil will play Chile and my money looks like it is going on Chile.

My grandmother can run faster than Fred.

Are we watching the same game? Brazil is doing their best game in this tournament. Fast attacking football with many chances while defending decently.

In this shape they could easily beat every team. Still, the second goal was a gift and is entirely on the non existing defense in that situation.

I doubt my prediction of 2:1 for Brazil will last long into the secon half.

Seriously? Any good team would be killing Brazil here. Their defending has been woeful and the two goals they scored were gifted by poor defending. Cameroon should have scored more, most other teams would have.
