Brazil won't have it easy against Serbia. Very physical and experienced team. Talented as well.

Agree. Serbia looks the best team in this group so far. They can beat Brazil. 

 

Is it just me or serbia fans are booing Shaqiri? Probably because he is an albanian kosovar, I´d guess.

Good save from Stojkovic. Switzerland's first real chance.

yeah some of the Swiss team getting the same treatment.

[Stan]

Dzemaili wtf are you doing  Crossing when the goal is pretty much straight ahead.

[Cicero]

A bit too unselfish there...

[Eco]

There is going to be a red card today. This seems to be getting feisty.

expected with the links to Albania/Kosovo that some of the Swiss players have - Shaqiri, Behrami, Dzemaili off the top of my head.

He posted a photo of his football boots on his Instagram today, with the flag of Switzerland on one and the flag of Kosovo on another...

[Stan]

[El Profesor]

Xhaka! What a goal. 

 

[bozziovai]

[nudge+]

Jaaaaa! 

Xhaka, what a goal 

[Cicero]

Fuck me imagine if that went in. Unlucky Shaqiri 

[Panna King]

Xhaka is world class

[Stan]

how the fuck is that not a penalty?! Literally one player tasked with holding him and not even looking when the cross is made.

[Bluewolf]

VAR has been absolute shit when it comes to dealing with holding and blatant foul play... 

[Dr. Gonzo]

I fucking love Telemundo's coverage, the commentator was absolutely gutted about Shaqiri right there "POR QUE SHAQIRI!" love it.

[El Profesor]

Shaqiri running at full speed is the very definition of beautiful football. 

[The Artful Dodger]

Lovely. Sets up a great finale to this group.

[Bluewolf]

What a time to score... great run and well taken
