Croatia take the lead, regardless.


No just lucky bounce, Mandzukic's header was going wide but it hit the defenders leg and redirected into the goal. Well deserved lead though.

Nigeria is playing an uncharacteristically boring style in this game

What a dumb penalty..... :crazy: Well to be honest I couodnt care less - 3 points are here. 8-)

Mandzukic is really getting under the skin of african players. I remeber 4 years ago Song elbowed him and got a red card at the start of the game which led them to a 4-0 trashing.

Argentina-Croatia is the match I’ve most been looking forward to thus far. Should be a great one

To be fair there could’ve been like 3 broken legs already and all we’ve got so far is one yellow lol

Interesting game, think it might boil over in the second half, maybe a red card coming

What? I just see a lot of clear fouls on both sides. Especially from Argentina. That´s not flopping.

Refs don't have the guts to dish out cards.
Could've been a red card already.
