I think Colombia are going out. They never get anywhere in world cups whereas Uruguay always seem able to do some damage.
His full name is David Luiz Moreira Marinho but I do still wonder why on the score graphic his name is David Luiz and not just Luiz or David or Marinho.
Very strange naming systems these Spanish/Portugese players have.

Everyone keeps saying Brazil are shit but they keep getting through. Everyone said they were shit and they ran away with the confederations cup last year!
Think Chile need the half time whistle now.
And Brazil have to scramble it away after a defensive mistake!
This is gripping stuff.

Fred is Luiz Felipe Scolari love child.
What an enthralling half of football.
Very scrappy to begin with due to the sheer number of cheap fouls and cheap dives both sides were committing but I suppose it was always going to be like that with two South American sides looking to take every advantage they can find.
Unsurprising that both goals have come as a result of either side's weak defensive links; Chile's not having the height and the strength to deal with set pieces and Brazil's inexplicably losing concentration in a nothing area.

They are poor by past Brazilian standards. Neymar has been carrying them.

Yes nicknames, or just using their first names.
Oscar is actually Oscar dos Santos Emboaba Júnior, but who would know who Emboaba is?
And Hulk is actually Givanildo Vieira de Souza.
What a tetchy match.
Without doubt one of the funniest commentary moments of the world cup. English commentator doing his usual boring overhyping of foreign teams, saying in a stupidly over excited voice stuff like "there are goals, there are skills, there are world class players, there is flair." Half way through his rant Hulk shot the ball horribly wide, which shut him up quickly.
Pulis would have been proud of both these goals
