I love reading how FIFA want Brasil to win. Sure ok. They were given a brutal PK in the 1st game. Yep. Other teams have been screwed as well, i.e Mexico vs Cameroon. Last game vs Colombia, Fernandinho with some vicious tackles at least should have received a yellow. BUT what about the one on Hulk and Neymar. Lol. Come on people wake up. It has gone both ways for Brasil.
Soccer is the worst sport to take seriously. Corruption everywhere. If the fix is in for Brasil, is it in for Argentina to reach the final and potentially win? Was it in 66 for England at home? 78 for Argentina? 98 for France? ...
All major sports have replay. I do not believe I will ever see soccer with IR in my lifetime. "Slows the game down". The dumbest argument ever. They allow subs at the end of the game, guys to fake injury and immediately come back on the field, etc. A lot of time wasting occurs in this game. The beautiful game, "fair play" is a JOKE. This sports doesn't compare to a NFL when it comes to entertainment and legitimacy. There are SO MANY ways to introduce IR and other things to make this game better and more offensive. FIFA will not do it.
My point is why take it seriously? Why call this game fixed and that one not? It's fixed when it happens against your team but not at other times? Please. We have no clue which are fixed, which refs have been paid. It sucks.
Regardless,
Gut tells me Germany vs Netherlands final. I won't be stunned if Brasil win but I will if Argentina do. They have played nobody. True test upcoming.

I don' think fix is the word. It's that the refs are more lenient when it comes to Brazil. This could either be because of the huge home crowd support which puts plenty of pressure on the refs, or because FIFA has an agenda. I think it's a combination of both

We're bettors here. I don't care if the ref is a "weak" ref susceptible to home crowd influence, because then it's another reason to take one side over another. But I'd like more history about the ref than just one match involving Uruguay and Italy. Especially if the worst thing he did was issue a red card (which I thought was reasonable and plenty of others do as well) after 2/3rds of the match was over.
