Hopefully we'll get a decent ref for this one.

Bit odd that this match is on before the 1st round of fixtures ends, probably to do with tv companies changing the schedule I guess?
Brazil should win this fairly comfortably, Mexico played well in the first game but Cameroon were terrible, so not getting carried away with the level they are at. |

I wonder If there will be any riots tonight. If Brazil lose it could get nasty.

Glad Hulk's not playing. Not sure how he gets in. Does f all.
Expect a much better Brazil in this game. |

Expect a much better Brazil in this game. Hopefully we get a strong ref in this one. It'll be a good indicator of whether Brazil will grow into the tournament after a so-so opening performance. |

Mexico have a pretty decent record in recent times against Brazil, better than most anyway. I think it's 6 wins and 2 draws in their last 12 meetings.

Ok, hoping for no dodgy ref decisions this time around!

This could be great. The atmosphere should be.

Come on Mexico. Call me weird, but I feel joy when Brazilian fans don't get what they want.

Unbeaten at home in 38 games.
That's.....a decent home record, to say the least. |

Never know quite what to expect from Mexico, on their day they are a match for anyone.
I'm going to sit on the fence and say 1-1. |

Really good build up on the BBC tonight. Henry and Seedorf have been excellent signings and Tim Vickery also very impressive.

Brazil with their hands on each others shoulders. Give me a break.

I would like to see Henry get into this punditry gig more often. Maybe it wouldn't feel so special if I saw him all the time I suppose. Seedorf is good too but it looks like he wants a career in management.
Even the foreign pundits are better than the English ones.

Wonder whether JP's been reading his Boys Book of Association Football Rules?
