Fellaini didn't score that - his afro did.

I like the subs the Belgian coach has made. It was ballsy taking out Lukaku for a 19 year old, with only two international games to his name. But his pace and deep runs were needed. And what they lost in physical presence and aerial skill, they were compensated for when toilet brush came on (he's not bad when used the right way - loads of people on here were drawling over him when he played for Everton).

Either that defender was running in treacle or that Origi was on a moped. He just blew past him.

Just keep playing it to Fellaini's afro. The twelfth man wants another.

Quite exciting that, in the end. Fellaini did more for Belgium in 30mins than he did for the rags all season - funny really

Well done, Belgium! They dug out that result, which will hopefully augur well for the rest of the tournament.

Origi had a good game when he came on for Lukaku - pace and intelligence. I love how he moved both central defenders with his run to make room for the scorer of the second goal

Just not getting the love in for Brazil. Very little flair or swagger considering it's their tournament. A very good side, no doubt, but they just don't excite me

How is that lazy defending and/or diastrous Mr Shearer. The fact that it was deliberate shows that it was actually a tactic that they've worked on, knowing Fred's got no fucking brains at all.

Shearer just proves himself just as thick as Fred.
