Yeah, I don't particularly rate him but he's looking the most likely for Brazil.

BBC had first pick of 2nd round and semis and ITV the quarters.

True, he's had a decent second half.

It's an enjoyable enough game but the overhyping of it is getting a bit irksome now.

Fantastic quality? I must be watching a different match than Keown.

"Fantastic quality" says Martin Keown.

Really????

Keowns not seeing the Brazil team we're seeing.

It's been pretty tense but the commentators seem to be desperate to make it out like some sort of classic, which is really wearing thin.

I'm surprised they waited so long for Willian tbh. Not a fun prospect for the tired Chile defenders though.

It's not the quality of this match that's made it captivating, it's the fact that it's been full of effort and incident and tension and is ultimately determining the home nation's fate in this World Cup.

Chile looking a bit tired, which isn't surprising.

Yeah so exciting perhaps, but that's not the same as great quality.

Pity Ken Dodd isn't commentating, Headed over by Jo. Poor game really, with Chile spirited.
For tension it can't be beaten though.

Been trying to work out who Medel reminds me of. I just got it.

Chile really will be desperate to get to penalties now with the rock at the centre of their defence - and, in my view, the Man of the Match - Gary Medel stretchered off.

I think Scolari fell into the trap of playing with his favourites rather than who's really more useful to the team.

It's a real shame he went off, my man of the match as well

He's secured a move back to the Premier League with that display.

Yeah. I think he's perhaps too conservative. There are others who aren't even in the squad who I think would be well worth a go in this side.

The tension for this match. One screw up by Brazil and Police leave is cancelled for the next 2 weeks.
