    Just took 15/4 as Mexico at odds on in running despite a good start madness.

    I reckon I could score against this Cameroon defence and I'm 69 and recovering from heart surgery.

    AWFUL!!!

    They are already 110 after todays win.

    You could lay them at 120 and walk away with 50 quid profit right now had you had 100 quid on at 180 when I suggested it.

    This match has now bored me so much , I intend to spend the rest of the second half laying brazil as outright winners. Already I have surpassed my biggest ever outlay which was on good old Kasbah Bliss (WH2009)

    Can someone tell me how Brazil are STILL favourites? I have been strongly against them being favs pre-tournament, but now they are performing as I expected, I would have thought the market would have corrected itself.

    Funny how every man and its dog on previews were tipping Fred as top scorer - he's brutal.

    Unless Neymar or Alves do something special, they create very little.

    Brazil were let down by a lack of creativity, particularly from the referee.

    If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.

    Neymar is atrocious. He tries to go past 10 men all the time.

    I really fancy Croatia at 7/4. I think they are much better than Mexico, and fancy their big trio to come to the fore tonight.

    Brazil clear favourites again on Betfair. God knows how? For me, it's as wide open as any tournament has been in years...

    Most wide open I can remember. For the first time ever we could have a genuine shock winner as per Greece or Denmark in the wuros

    Still think the winner will be from the Americas. This time next week Brazil will probably be 2/1. The only dark horse I can see at the moment is Columbia but I'm still sweet on a Brazil/Argentina final.
    I'd like Croatia to win for competition purposes but Mexico don't lose many.
    The older I get the better I was.
