For me Luis was getting round so agree with yellow card for Cesar

Home referee, bring back Howard Webb

Having watched last two Brazil games I don't think Germany will be scared of Brazil team either

The ball was on its way out anyway before he went down.

Fractured Veterbrae for Neymar, he is out of World Cup

It looked serious at the time so I'm not surprised. It's hard to feel sorry for Brazil though, after they racked up so many fouls in the match themselves. The referee was way too lenient.

That means he will probably miss the start of Barcelona's season I would have thought

Can see Brazil v Germany being a dour game dominated by cynical tackling. I think it's too close to call. However, Germany are a team, they don't have a glamour player but play well together and have a decent defence in front of arguably the best keeper at the tournament. Brazil have no Silva and Neymar and the defence is a weakness with Dante, Marcelo and Maicon all suspect.

A definite great pity. It's huge fun pointing out his fallibilities but it's knowing that a few seconds later, when he usually gets up, we might be treated to sublime skills.
It's one of football's great dichotomies. We tacitly approve of much bad and unsportsmanlike behaviour by celebrating results - of matches or just passages of play - as much as we decry it if our interests as supporters or neutrals aren't served. There's no easy answer, were we to hope to change that, seeing as we do kind of thrive on the confrontational nature of footballing culture. Wholehearted change is unlikely, amendments are possible. The need to introduce goal-line technology was overdue but I think it can be argued that the disappearing foam has made the most impact at this tournament. Its accuracy is still dependent on the referee but it's supplied an entertaining new ritual (to us at least) and illustrates just how badly the law of distance to the wall has been officiated in the past!
Maybe we wouldn't be any happier if one of ITV's former pundits was on board, but it's a funny old game...
