They shouldn't have been there and it devalues the tournament, but they earned my respect with their approach and attitude.

Yes. It would be interesting to know whether their tactics were solely due to naivety, tactically ineptness or they are genuinely deluded. Perhaps a combination of the three. Playing such a high line was plain stupid and suicidal lol. They should have played and real deep 4-1-4-1. 5-4-1 with a high line is just garbage.

Indeed, going forwards they impressed me but their defensive set-up and ability were pretty laughable.
 
I think they just realised that even if they played a 10-0-0 formation they were likely to get beaten 3-0, so they decided they might as well have some fun and get beat 6-1, but at least score a goal.
 
Sounds like it's going to go ahead anyway, this is all embarrassing for Brazil with the World Cup and Olympics coming up though.
 
penalty

saved!!!!! good refereeing to give it btw. most referees would have bottled it
 
Forlan is playing horrendously. He needs to give the set pieces to Suarez
