Estádio do Maracanã, Rio de Janeiro


Reckon Spain will rack up double figures

They will probably play their stiffs, tbf - should still be good enough for 5 or 6 though

I'll take any half decent football right now, it's dragging like £#%&!

From the write up for tomorrow's game between Brazil and Japan

Alan Shearer provides expert analysis

Their stiffs are players like Mata and Navas

THE MEN TO WATCH
Marama Vahirua has vast experience in Europe, with the Nancy striker in a Tahiti squad for the first time. Can the 33-year-old former France Under-21 international, who has been playing on loan in Greece this season, fire on the big stage? If so, look out for his paddle celebration in honour of Tahiti's national sport, Va'a - a form of canoe racing.

Captain Nicolas Vallar also has experience in France and was voted best player at last year's Oceania Nations Cup. He is now back playing in Tahiti and is an uncompromising central defender.

Forward Alvin Tehau is regarded as the best of three brothers in the team, although the siblings consider their cousin Teaonui Tehau to be better still. Alvin and twin brother Lorenzo hold the dubious distinction of having both been sent off in the same game, at the 2009 Under-20 World Cup.

Alvin used to work for Tahiti's postal service, repairing mailboxes.

Just put £20 on Spain U21 and Confederations Cup double at 5/1

Could do with £ for PS4.

Robbie Savage ‏@RobbieSavage8 3m

Due to tennis over running brazil v Japan may start on red button at 7-30 !

Should move it to BBC1.

The Voice ffs

Chapman is such a numpty. Meanwhile Shearer tells the whole of Brazil to wait until they play a conpetitive game before moaning

Blatter booed out of the stadium

Edit its for madame president

Could be a good little tournament this.

It's been getting stronger with each iteration and the teams take it quite seriously.

Good wordage.

Cracker from Neymar

anyone else's sound ahead of the pictures? :shakehead:

Tekkers.

The sound is about 2 seconds ahead so you knew he'd scored before he hit it

Pick that out. Fantastic strike

Commentary

Have they sorted it? Went for the drive went for the drive
