      Excited for Ivory Coast vs Japan game later. Japan are usually impressive with their work rate and It'd be interesting to see the physicality of Ivory Coast vs the work rate of Japan, also, looking forward to Kagawa and Honda playing together.

      It's a shame Falcao hasn't come for the World Cup, but I'm looking forward to seeing how well Colombia can do.

      Yeah, also surprised Luis Muriel didn't get chosen, maybe they have better. Can't wait to see James Rodriguez and Jackson Martinez in action! But I suspect it'll be a boring match with Greece parking the bus  :(

      He's not had a good season by the looks of things. 4 goals in 24 matches.

      Wow, didn't know it was that bad. Heard rave reviews on him and we were also linked to him so decided to watch him (2 games). Thought he was very good in the games he played in.

      I'm absolutely loving the presence of so many South American fans. Chile's anthem last night was beautiful to see, the whole stadium singing; and now Colombia fans have done the same. Beautiful! Vamos Colombia!

      Nice one Colombia! I like that team, we played a friendly against them earlier this season.

      What I really don't get though, how can they keep Jackson Martinez, Adrian Ramos and Carlos Bacca on the bench and play Gutierrez as striker instead? That makes no sense.

      2-0 Colombia!

      And I think the Colombian fans get the award for the best set of fans heard so far at the tournament! Awesome support!

      Living in Bogota at the moment, incredible atmosphere. You'd think this was the final with the noise being made.

      Amazing isn't it? Though Chile fans were pretty good last night as well.

      Was coming to say the same. What a player!
      Loved his long pass in their first goal.
      His goal ruined my 2-0 prediction though!

      An emotional victory, a lot of people in tears after first goal. We gave Greece the control of the game way more than we should, another team would score that chances.

      Yet another quality end to end match. Ivory Coast dominant but can't find a goal, Japan looking to hit on the counter.

      Honda's goal was superb. He has been amazing.

      Been very impressed with the full backs for the Ivory Coast. We're linked with Aurier, looks very good indeed and while a small guy that Boko has played very well in that first half.

      What a cross by Aurier! Was only at half time the pundits were slagging him off for having a sh*t game with Ian Wright hoping Arsenal aren't seriously linked with him ???
