Anyone else looking forward to it tonight? Hopefully be a cracking match I'm gonna have a little flutter on brazil 2 spain 4
Should be a blinder, Neymar will get joy against Spain's CB's, they are quality, but they aren't the most mobile, I expect to see Neymar drifting left so he gets a chance to approach them with a head of steam. Midfield, Spain are stronger, and Brazil, as we all know, aren't the best at the back, but you do get the impression that the failing of this incredible Spanish squad could be the fact that the forwards are in decline, and there is nothing exceptional coming through. The likes of Soldado & Negredo won't be anything like as threatening as Torres/Villa was in it's prime, and there are not really special looking CF's coming through at the minute. If Brazil keep their wits and defend correctly, try and stop whoever starts from Silva, Mata & Cazorla's movement, then they could win it. I'm going 2-1 Brazil.
lovely. out on the lash, picked up at 10. Our lass and the bairn kicked off to bed. just the match, me, my kebab, few buds, nuts at half time, probably fall asleep before the end. happy days.
Sounds good our lass out with the lasses tonight and staying over in Newcastle so got a totally free night and a day off tomorrow happy days. p.s. Kebab sounds good as well.
Brazil have not lost in a competitive tournament on home soil since the 1950 World Cup final against Uruguay, ok its not that many games but its still pretty impressive. And I believe Spain were going for a world record of 28 consecutive victories against Italy in the semi finals, im not sure if they got that or with it going to pens, it was a draw but still very impressive. (this was just from the commentator against italy mind, so it may be crap or something else entirely). Should be a very good match though, I am going for Brazil, more for the fact I want Spain to be knocked off their perch, but if spain were not so bloody good, I would go spain to knock the Brazil record on its head as well. Brazil 3 - 1 Spain

It's not clear on the home page where it is, just in one of the boxes where they usually put highlights. Shoddy.
