Someone posted that they had just placed a bet on that Swing, can't think who??
BBC TV commentators inconsolable that they have backed the wrong team, have been promoting drivel. Rio wondering how he ended up in a studio with clowns.

Yep. I'm actually quite angry at him for missing and allowing Brazil time to score.

Had Germany to win and 4+ goals in the game @ 12/1, after 30 minutes I stopped worrying.

Don't worry. I'm an Arsenal supporter, and I found it funny.

At least the awful Hansen has been forced to retire. Shearer is as good a pundit as he was a manager.

I can't be bothered going through the thread but I think when it was 5-0 someone posted that they'd had a final score bet of 7-1.......hope they got decent odds !

Even now it's all Brasil, forget the fact they have just been given a football masterclass.

Ozil's had a really poor World Cup overall in my opinion.

He's been talking drivel about Brazil for weeks, that's why he is distraught.

BBC TV commentators talking drivel, almost missing Adrian Chiles at least his drivel is almost amusing

A lot of people idolise Brazil having grown up watching them in 1970 and 1982 in particular.

Yes I did hear about it, however not all the details.
Apart from that dreadful and unfortunate incident, there have been no fracas with fans from other countries, which is a relief compared several years ago when England couldn't travel abroad without some touble breaking out.

Definitely seems a weak link in the team.
