Brazil looked good controlling the tempo besides the fact they couldn’t score with several chances. I think they could have put up 8 or 9 goals this game. Navas was fighting for his life out there for Costa Rica he got burnt out and he let that extra garbage time goal slip through. Costa Rica couldn’t get nothing going with their offense Brazil was far superior.

Lol the basketball parallels are funny, so lets review:

Ronaldo = Kobe
Messi = Lebron
Neymar = Curry

Right?

Naah, I thought they played very well.

Beating smaller teams isn't as easy as people think

Especially if the team shows up to put 10 behind the ball and hack their way throughout the game. See the difference between Portugal playing Spain sending fullbacks up the pitch vs a team that is going to be more cautious like a Morroco or even how Iran will probably play them

Hardman Ramos

Firminho was more impactful sub than Costa. Against teams that sit back Casemero and Paulinho is not going to give enough penetration. Neymar scores and i know the Euros are heated, never seen a player who gets that much hate from the reddit types. I bet they still salty that he did not turn out to be Robinho in Europe.

They absolutley revile him and I love it I want them to win this tournament.

Spain looks shaky af too so far...

but who not...?

Croatia, Russia, Belgium, Mexico... these are the teams who impressed so far, meaning that they were good overall, consistently not just throughout periods like Spain or England

I really need to learn that language. Find it far better than Spanish.

Very very similar to Spanish. If you learn Portuguese you can get by in Spanish. However, because the languages are so similar some people can never really fully master both

If Spain plays like they did Portugal sending Alba and Carvajal up front with a slow Pique 1 on 1 on counters it will be difficult for them also, not surprised Iran could hold on as long as they did.

Honestly, why is Neymar crying?? .

He has passed Romarios record of 55 gols for Brazil. Now he is the third all time scorer (56) for Brazil under Real Ronaldo and Pele.
