Even you surely have to concede that Fred went down very easily with minimal contact and that had it been given against Brazil you would have been furious

This has to be the game of the Group Stage: - Spain V Holland and I fully expect Holland to be looking for revenge!!

Today's decisions by the linesman with both the disallowed goals were both really poor..
What would the atmosphere be like for Brazil V Mexico? would it be like a local derby or is there real needle?
Well brazil will want revenge for them losing the Olympic final to them in 2012

Always is a good atmosphere when we play Mexico, they have beat us a few times and usually are good games, will be very noisy crowd
but I think we will win this time
Last time we play them at the confederations cup we win 2 - 0

I did say that he went down easily, but I also said that a lot of players do, they either get booked or get a penalty, it is up to the referee, end of the day I want Brasil to win so I had no problem with the decision, yes if it went against us I would be annoyed but I would also understand why it went against us.
If England get a soft penalty vs Italy tomorrow I bet you would be happy it went your way too, like i was yesterday?
This must be the last tournament for many of this Spanish squad given their ages.
Very clever leaving his leg out to be fouled

Brasils most hated man!![[Image: 1780854_772808532738011_465358873_n.png]](http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/t1/1780854_772808532738011_465358873_n.png)
