Jul 11th, 2014 - 09:19 am - Link - Report abuse 0I saw part of this interview, thought he handled himself well and was a gentleman about the injury. He said that if the injury had been 2cms higher he would be in a wheelchair but seemed to hold no ill feeling about the tackle.
Jul 11th, 2014 - 10:45 am - Link - Report abuse 0“Marchesaono”?? never heard of him before. Overall Brazilians will support Germany and hope for the Teutonic team to thrash ArgenFIFA rather thatn having to see ArgenFIFA win the WC in Brazil.
Jul 11th, 2014 - 10:53 am - Link - Report abuse 0“After the merciless match, Rousseff used her Twitter account to call on Brazilians to unite: “Brazil, get up, dust yourself off and move forward,” she said.”
Right but that twitt is not going to bring back 14 Bn US$ they have spent on the WC.
Minor point of language….
Jul 11th, 2014 - 11:13 am - Link - Report abuse 0A twit is an idiot.
A tweet is a post on twitter.
In this case they are interchangeable.

Jul 11th, 2014 - 11:19 am - Link - Report abuse 0CD you must be so excited for the game on Sunday....you are cheering for your team....?
It will be the reformed Nazis against the emerging Nazis on Sunday. I'm backing our friends from Germany. Only about 6 of the Argies play for home teams wheras all but 6 of the Germans play for German teams. Greg Dyke is absolutely correct, its time we purged our football league of so many foreign players to give our own guys a chance to blossom. Chuck the Scotch out too…

No, because the gov't will use and abuse a WC victory for electoral and political gain, and I have to admit the fixture of this WC is far too suspicious that benefited as max as possible a ARG-BRAZIL final. I dont wish our boys bad but I will not be holding my heart on the next Sunday other than looking forward to a good game.
The islanders seem resentful. They dream of the defeat of Argentina in any field. On Sunday, anything can happen, win or lose, but that will never happen again in history is to see England in a final ..! Say what you want but Argentina is always the protagonist and you “pirates” will always be spectators.

You will always be spectators.
@10 I fear you are correct because everything with the title sport is no longer about sport its about money.

Yes, we stole them (back) from those who stole them from us. They had it all and they lost the lot.
“Marchesaono” says the 4th class newspaper.

For those that read my posts, and those that don't , I have been saying from the start that Germany would reach the final, never said they WOULD win, just that they COULD, or at least would make it through.

Never underestimate zee Germans!
They went out to Brazil early and privately buit their own training camp as they didn't trust the holders to deliver to the standards they require!
I agree both Spain and Italy are contenders. Argentina should make the semi-finals but I am not 100% convinced about Brazil having a clean run.
Is there a possibilty that Brazil will collapse under the incredible pressure? That the weight of expectation might be to overbearing?
Any thoughts on that theory?

”Possibly of the four I might have kept Franco Di Santo (Werder Bremen) on the bench but I think Sabella has got it about right.”
so you might have di santo instead of tevez?
you are a joke.

Jul 13th, 2014 - 04:01 am - Link - Report abuse 0Ha ha, this is the same Internet Rat, “Pablo Cedron” and/or “Paul Cedron” who sucks up to the visiting British and Australian Rugby players like a lovesick fanboy... !!
Preaches 'brotherly love ', etc.bonding through sport, and on and on...
That would be fine if he weren't preaching his anti- British and racist garbage on MercoPress, at the same time.
He appears to be wrong on all counts.
He must be the only man outside of Argentina rooting for Argentina. The whole world, including all of South America, is cheering for Germany.
Jul 13th, 2014 - 09:53 pm - Link - Report abuse 0This is where Argentina wakes up to the reality of of not having any friends.
Hasta la vista, Argentina! You can bugger off back home to Cristina 'Bride of Frankenstein' Fernández de Kirchner.
To see Neymar walking around the edge of the field before the Argentina v. Holland match, greeting his mates, made me wonder just how serious his “injury” really was, considering that he had been “injured” only 8 days before...At the end of the day, I was glad to see Brazil get shafted - again - so now, perhaps the people can start to see through all the government bullshit about how the WCup was going to benefit Brazil's economy.
Jul 14th, 2014 - 06:21 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Ilsen is feeling pretty smug right now.
Jul 14th, 2014 - 09:55 pm - Link - Report abuse 0So paulie thinks I know zero (0), about football?
Ooh, would you like a biscuit dearie?
Make you feel a little better?
Oh please stop sobbing, your economy is collapsing. Stop insulting others, stop worrying about the football, and try to rescue your country.
No time to lose!
Tick tock!
No time, Tou-louse...
Jul 15th, 2014 - 02:09 am - Link - Report abuse 0While the birdbrains lament the loss of the World Cup, their economies are going down the drain (Brazil's & the Argie's) ....but to them, that is OK...
Jul 15th, 2014 - 10:42 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Sorry, Neymar, but Meswsi played as if he alreadey had enough tropheys. He afted more like a superstar waiting to be fed the ball by undeerlings so HE could get dredit for eacfh goal.
Jul 16th, 2014 - 05:50 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Germany rightfully won because they were organized and focused. The Germans were also the most polite and agreeable players among the visiting teams. Thanks for that.
If Brasilian fans want to blame Dilma for the failure to measure up, as the conservatives hope, given this is an election year, they have only to look at the lack of focus and the ineptness of some players whom Filipao depended on too much. He was right to resign, if he had consented to some members of the selecao. Romario was also right to point the finger at the corrupt CBF officials and name names. Until Brasilian futebol is cleaned up, and even until FIFA is cleaned up, nothing goos will come of many of these grand tournaments other than to further enrich people who already have too much money for their tiny, greedy brains to handle.
