    Did I say Fernandez? I meant wee Jimmy Rodriguez.

    Ladbrokes kept knocking me back for 40/1 Marcelo to score the next goal. Eventually took 35/1.

    I reckon if Columbia don't get anything out of the first 15-20 minutes of the second half they will self destruct.

    Time to seek out the red card bet.

    End to end game and a bit of a tear up going on in the middle of the pitch, lots of half chances but no real quality on show up front so far, Rodriguez is getting targeted and bullied and the ref seemingly couldn't give a toss.

    They won't. Colombia are on the take in some form or other.

    That was never a free kick but wow awesome strike, 3 goals today all defenders - penalty now!

    Had to be a red card, 2-1 game on - come on!

    I like to see a ref keep his card in his pocket more often but this fella has taken it to extremes

    Absolutely sickened with that result, best team lost. Ref ruined the game by not booking for any challenges. Germany will walk into the final!

    That was feckin outrageous, how bad was the ref? Butchery on Rodriguez Keeper has to go and nothing.
    Chuck that in with the Croatia game, you'd have to be brave to back against them.
    Best World Cup my arse......bent World Cup ...maybe

    Wow, Euro. I shudder to think what kind of abuse I'd come in for if I suggested that!

    Having thought Belgium were never in serious danger v USA the other night, I can't say I felt the same way watching this match.

    The ref didn't help either side and, to a degree, spoiled what was otherwise a match that will provoke all sorts of reaction.

    The bottom line is that Brazil went two up from two set pieces. Columbia pulled one back from a penalty. Both sides had other opportunities but the side [both gave a lot] that wanted it the most got through.

    It was a fascinating battle of wills rather than silky football but the fact Brazil won such a battle is just another layer in their armoury.

    Like a lot of World Cup's this one is going bad as we get to the latter stages.

    A last minute Messi winner against the samba cunts is its only possible redemption.

    I backed the red card and even I can't agree.

    That Rodriguez looks some player.
    You should not confuse your career with your life.

    Is not obvious that there is no chance any ref will let Germany walk into the final? Never thought I would want Brazil to lose so much but that is how I feel.
