    Unless I heard wrong, the Brazilians were booing during the Chilean national anthem, absolutely disgraceful and disrespectful behaviour. One of the reasons I hope they don't win is their arrogant and disrespectful fanbase. And Chile, the respectful fanbase they are, are not booing the Brazilian national anthem. Disgusting behaviour.

    Yeah, not a fan of Brazil. Rooting for Chile right now. We'll see how it goes...

    They were booing because the anthem had stopped but the Chileans had continued singing. They didn't boo during the anthem itself.

    And they don't do the same? What a bunch of hypocrites. No one boos when the Brazilians continue to sing their anthem (which, by the way, they sing terribly), so why should the Chileans get that treatment. And now with Chile back in the game, they could finally shut up that pathetic fanbase.

    Did anyone ever notice the remarkable similarity between David Ruiz and Sideshow Bob?

    YUP... I never knew his real name, so that's what I always called him.

    Chile has held their own so far, but let's see if they keep up in the second half.

    Should be a higher score than 1-1 at the half.

    Yes it had been noted once or twice here when he played for Chelsea. :D

    A few minutes into extra time, and we've already seen a huge dive by Hulk and a dangerous play that should've gotten one of the Brazilians sent off. Yet he only got a yellow, of course... this is tense... X_X

    It will be one dramatic climax to this game. Will Vargas get the point(s)? ;) Or will Sanchez' dreams go up in flames? ;)

    And who will be the main Willian? ;)

    Ok, that's enough... :P

    Brazil made Chili from Chili. I start watching from the last 20-22 minutes from 92 minutes. I predict a underdog going to win and that also can be The Netherlands.. So of course i whas for Chili now, so we mabey against them again. The Netherlands - Mexico 1-1 and after 2x 15 minutes 3-1.

    James Rodriguez is absolutely brilliant, I hope my Spurs make a play for him this summer. Based on today's games, Colombia could breeze past Brazil.

    Definitely goal of the tournament for me.

    I doubt Spurs will be the only interested club after this World Cup...

    Yeah, I've heard United might make a move as well, but they're linked with everyone (particularly those of a Dutch nature) at the moment so I wouldn't read to much into that. He has been great for Monaco, but now he is proving himself in front of the world, not just France.

    So looking forward to actually seeing a clip of that goal after the game. No visuals possible but listening to BBC radio live now. Whew! Come on, Colombia!

    Caught the recap of Rodriguez's goal at the halftime show. That was a beautiful, beautiful shot. Wow.
    (My favorite goal this tournament though is still Van Persie's header, and I really doubt that'll change)

    2 nil now. Rodriguez is f***ing brilliant. Anyway, I can't be the only one that's being driven insane by this every time the adverts come on?

    You could say they're about to TASTE defeat.

    Uruguay is getting chewed up on the pitch.

    I few weeks ago I wrote that Colombia could have been an outsider for the title with Falcao. However I was wrong. They can win it without him too.

    And I wonder what the odds was for James Rodriguez finishing as the tournaments top scorer. That might be a reality too.

    It begs a good question, how good would they have been with Falcao? However, you could say that Falcao's presence would have stopped James from breaking out like he has. A wonderful team to watch, perhaps even better with Falcao, but we will never know.

    Uruguay's bench was yellow carded? ... and then finally one player yellow carded? (re free kick) It's hell at times listening only to audio.

    Colombia's got to hold tight, nearing the end.
