    The officials have been the difference between Brazil winning and losing this game.

    Indeed. It's actually putting me off.

    EDIT: Incidentally, for some reason, every time Srna is mentioned I think of Andrew Surman. :)

    Yes. Referee's had a **** game but you can't say "this has fix written all over it" without proof. 95% of referees would have given that "foul" on the keeper. The penalty was a shocking decision but it happens.

    It`s all Guly`s fault.
    I`ve gone off Brazil already. I don`t think Croatia would have got that penalty decision.

    Rakitic has been incredibly disappointing

    I watched Pierluigi Collina's Masterclass. I'm certain 95% of referees of a World Cup standard would NOT have given it. Academic now anyway.

    Playing in the wrong position, arguably.

    Have you not seen referees in the Champions League? Every contact on the keeper referees give a free kick. Foreign referees give a lot more than English referees.

    As I said before the tournament, and received derision, can you see anyone apart from Brazil winning the tournament, they paid a lot of money to host it. The referee did his job tonight.

    Ref should be dropped for the rest of the tournament. Shocking performance. Croatia scored a perfectly good goal, and that penalty is just a joke really. Thought Dejan had a strong game otherwise.

    Where is Tom? Has he changed name? Even he couldn't defend that decision. Actually quite angry.
