If Neymar was sent off like he should have been things would be very different! :roll:

That Marcello seems to collapse when a Croatian player so much as glances at him!

Yellow was a goo decision IMO. No intention in it

Very soft. Not a penalty for me and definitely not a yellow

I would like to see Croatia equalise as they deserve at least a draw out of this.

Never a penalty shocking decision

Replays showed Neymar was looking at Modric before he elbowed him. Clear red.


Fred slipped.


Neymar''s penalty should have been retaken because it wasn't a clear movement.

That keeper's crap though.

If they'd had Marshall they'd have won that game. Dodgy ref or not.

Some people are making out these decision are worse than they actually are. One or two dodgy decision but nothing worse than we see every week in the Prem

3.1 doesn't reflect what a good fight Croatia put up, desperately unlucky. Everything seemed to go against them. I wonder how Brazil will fair against the bigger teams? They look far from unbeatable to me.

Never a sending off for neymar, he checks to see where Modric is but doesn't purposely elbow him you can clearly see that from replays, penalty was soft but seen a lot worse given, defender pulls on Fred's shoulder he goes down, soft yes but why even give the ref a decision to make.


Nothing wrong with neymar penalty don't know what your on about run up was fine....

Well said. Croatia well beaten in the end, and only scored through an own goal. The penalty was very soft, but why put your arms there and give the referee the opportunity to award it?

I've got no doubt Croatia will qualify, but I think loads of people just wanted to see an upset so wated Brazil to lose. They were well beaten in the end and could cope with Oscar and Neymar. Brazil will need to improve though

Totally agree with the latter part.

Expected little from Croatia given we beat them home & away.
