Booo no Dmitrovic in goal for Serbia

Milos Veljkovic played for Charlton on loan from Spurs before getting an injury only a couple of weeks into the loan from memory.

They've only just kicked off and already I'm bored with the fawning over Brazil.

Gudelij letting the side down with not ending his name in a C

Pavlovic now has to play for about 90 minutes without getting another yellow 🤦🏻‍♂️

Longer this game goes like this the more the ref will be wanting to give Brazil something.

Callumcafc

Very impressed by the Serbian defenders. Especially Pavlovic.

Makes you nostalgic for the days of the real Ronaldo watching this. What a player 

FishCostaFortune

Brazil don’t look bad at all, and expect they will go on to to win this, even though Serbia have and will make it very difficult for them.

But I’m not overly impressed with them. Maybe they are like Charlton and will look much better against a more expansive team.

The mystique of Brazil is not what is was, when players were more unknown.

That Spurs squad attacker, that player who was at Leeds last season...

The documentary that’s on BBC catch up about him and focusing mainly on his return from this horrendous injury issues to win the World Cup is great. Well worth watching.

The goal keeper rescued himself but I will go to my grave believing it madness to pass the ball to a defender when he is marked.

Not a great game, can see a Serb red as one of them is gonna proper lunge at the show pony who will perform a record 27 roll overs

Omly 21 too, looks a good player.

Great positioning from Richarlison... Questioned myself if he was offside, but he does so well to just keep behind the Defender until he needs to dart out, and follow up on the save

Chunes

I was just writing a post about how Richarlison doesn't compare to the Brazil strikers of old..........

se9addick

Bloody hell - that’s an amazing goal

Addick Addict

That is ridiculous!

Arthur_Trudgill

There's no magic like World Cup magic.

Stig

That was something else!

killerandflash

Great finish by the former Watford player

North Lower Neil

Great goal.

philcafc

Got to say, that's a brilliant finish.

soapboxsam

If Brazil scored a goal like that...

se9addick

I reckon deep down Neymar is absolutely seething

bolloxbolder

Reminded me of Mendonca's third at Wembley.

killerandflash

It's just like watching England 

Chunes

Was just reminded how much I loved Romario as a kid. Really underrated striker historically. Not really spoke about these days. He was different gravy.

killerandflash

Really impressive depth in Brazil's squad. And form Premier League players too
