day to exact hour and the level of performance of russian it was a surprise i knew that there would be prepared but i didn't expect that it will be . so amazing and i checked. good evening our welcome to. the central same day nine will be fine for brazil for iceland nigeria lots of action group the group today alongside me to get started peter just want to point out you spotted it with. some newlyweds just enjoying. celebrating will be celebrating today we've got i spent

a great. half time you think should feel more positive i think. iceland started really well it looks like nigeria after two and a half years of one of the now two years of warning really since the euros in two thousand i haven't really read about iceland that they can actually play football they started very lazy very laid back. and ice and started very bright and it's only in the last ten minutes that nigeria's got a little bit back but it's all iceland and the only thing they need to do now is to scrawl on and win this game and then it will be a proper world cup upset i think. but i don't know what i'd you're doing do you think half the creativity to. win this game in the sense that. it's kind of biggest name strength is they've got. three goals in the last three goofy sigurdsson attack made me feel. to force themselves upon my i mean i think they

have ability i don't think they have the creativity i don't think i sense a kind of team it i think consists of a very physically strong team all the players are tall they're very well built they can run all day they balled up on most muscles and they keep things fairly simple so they set pieces are very very good they've rehearsed them and we've seen that throughout the game. they've had five corner kicks from the left hand side also throw ins long throw ins have caught us and can throw the ball really long and they put it in in the box nearly from inside just inside the attack and how for a. halfway line. and it is really really difficult to defend against a team that are that good at it and can keep the ball up in that and put so much pressure on and on the team and at the moment i mean it's still nil no so we can safely say that nigeria survived the onslaught for forty five minutes and. they

have fifteen minutes now to just sort of get themselves organized again oh i say again not even again get themselves organized and then try to come up with it with a solution to how to score in this game there are possibilities because as i say it's not a career creating life and they're very well organized but they do commit a lot of people forward so if. who starts a game today to do that in the first game against croatia if they can find a little gaps of course possibilities for nigeria but they need to get up the other end for that to happen i'm anticipating the ice and will try to close the place in the assumption they won't want to go into the crazy match needing a win but we cannot rule out nigeria winning a draw for either of these teams in the final sequence and i got three how do you rate nigeria's chances to hang around here and then the winner a draw for either of these two teams means goodbye to messi and argentina i mean.

that will be asserted to. get i haven't looked at the first half have you seen the iceland play against the argentina i think they can they have the ability to produce a result get the result that was very very solid against argentina in spite of that the pressure that i can see in the both of them and they should by that and the end of the game you have to look back and say they didn't even look bothered about you know it's just part of what they do so this is what nigeria obviously what they're up against and they did manage to break them down like in the first top in argentina didn't do that so i haven't done any lessons from that but they have to come up with something i say the manager has changed to play as moves are in god she was in uganda all the mckale in there as well so obviously moses so you've got strong permanent play is in there used to be pushed and shoved in and out of against the physical physical teams so there are opportunities for them but they

need to find the punches finds a pretty positive i think coming into this match nigeria's defeat against croatia and in that opening match certainly didn't dampen that spirits they could be seen performing traditional dances in the hope maybe slightly infrared that the team got the ripples of this one against iceland and. pretty confident that miracles don't happen today. i don't need any magic so it seems like i slog through where i slog through the you know might be good to support the best thousands of us already pretty good so they've got all the support they need to play i just need to come stronger come correct and. out of the i salute fans i've got my way of inspiring that team to victory and you'll have seen it before i'm sure but it's always worth another look at the famous fine team clap we shall not see today for there's a goal for iceland. ok

let's move on to the early results from today this misanthropy action we've been talking about the origin team's fans being nervous must have been some frayed nerves in the in the brazil costa rica and yes brazil wanted to nothing but they didn't make a breakthrough until eventually it signed very very very light showing very late showing the first minute was in the nineteenth minute philip continue to score. it was the one time that costa rica didn't defend properly. a ball coming from the cross coming from the left hand side and then it was headed down to has just taken control the ball and philip between the stick and the nineteenth minute one nil and that was at a time when you think ok the form that came in there but novice was in he's not going to be beaten today the way costa rica defended that not going to be today and it would you know put too much in shock to see before that was an error and this really could have changed the game in favor of either team depending on the result

a big. moment took us through what happens we have a look right now we see the obviously to be our you and i i really like this one so we have this situation where a name is being pushed over well i say pushed oh he's not that the costa rican players they're peeling to the referee to go on a go and see if the assistant says you must come and see if he goes and see it on the monitor there and he comes back and he gives a free kick to costa rica absolutely perfect and so fair and this is the intention that has been made for now the only thing that i don't like about that situation is that he did not give name a yellow card he should have given him a yellow card for trying to get a penalty or cheating himself and his team for a penalty and why i say that it's significant because name i was actually talked a little bit later in the game and maybe he you know he should have been fending off and at the end of the day name who do. no i tell you did not have

a good game and has not turned up really for this welcome and for me is more of a problem than an asset to the brazilian team this moment in time he ended up score in the second goal and i was six minutes added on. and he scored in the ninety's plus seven when you set about as such a future consequence for the next two goals he described the first one from kenya if name i haven't been on the pitch at that point maybe this wouldn't happen so this is when it's in your speech at the start it's great for the continued nice he was it was fantastic today he was he was trying to play the game the way the game is being played and as much as he was allowed to do that have to call for neymar because they have this now have to pass it in a match my name out of the time so i was happy to see when brazil scored that it was between us that did that he had you remember the goal he scored in the first game i put it in the top corner he had a similar opportunity today and it just sneaked up by centimeter and in contrast

neymar had precisely the same and it was going well why the second goal well it came in the ninety's minute plus seven and you name and you know you don't miss from there even if you have a back and he is saving a little bit of his reputation. by scoring goals people will not be so critical with name after that. but i hope that you know for the second these world cups and and for the sake of you know the love of football that a player off his caliber steps up to the plate play a little bit better maybe try to think that this is a team game this is not a name game and then starts to play as a team player like continued it like familiar when you came on to it like. that will really make it not argentina brazil a lot lot stronger at the moment for me everyone coming into the world cup saying bro. hill they have the best team they are the favorites to win the world cup for

me the no one is as good as we thought they were and they're for me not the favorites i think spain so far. for asia and that we're going to be stuck down there on today see they can keep the level and neutrals will be coming down to hear that assessment i'm sure seeing some of their you know not so often named sites being right is in with a good chance of beating only eight teams never won the twenty welcomes france afonso this makes it an open competition and the brazil fans i'm sure they still think that the favorites no surprise we're going to see some some back selling that when they really did scrape up at the end of the day but they still celebrated that vital went. right through.

the four million fans leaving the same pieces that stadium very happy with that result they were going to have on that question we cut the funding resolutely what about twelve minutes to go brazil thought they had won a penalty with name of being pulled back there for the shave it and then referred to the v.a. office where he probably over time those decisions then one minute inside it on side so that he pops up at the back post so they can one know that she said he thought of the tournament before labor made it to know what hit the basically the last kick of the game leave the city and found the life of the duck results which surely helped them look a place in the local faces brazil came out very strong in the first half seventeen shots total ten like a. lot of goals. but at the end of the game they couldn't hold on.

well but i thought brazil did what they had to do high emotion high intensity and i'm very happy with the result given was so good it would make you how i need to make you i think play three well. they're going to play a better game by game because i think there is a treaty very to them and. hopefully resit when they woke up i gave you very chandler three zero at last really cool and also. i'll just put on my i pod because i need free hands for this gesture yet both sub patron are going to come off bringing the performance over an almost rooftop studio like the other six. hollow that you know how to.

drive this to try again i welcome to the skyline studio here in a very very windy moscow right next to red square i'm kate partridge and i'm alexina cesky we'll be bringing you all the latest from the championship and the last game off today will be switched on the at cyberia seven to get switzerland that kicks off in less than two hours let's have a closer look at the team. first of all the possible legacy let's have a quick look at what we've got here i'm going to start having a look at the swiss state this is the last chance to switzerland to make it out of the green and they relish the relative strengths of posting right there you go off every two you then actually i think to be honest that this game might be the first nil nil might be the first and they will see all this leave the ice nice surprise that having that could be another i mean everyone is saying that this world cup so . been filled with goals not a single nil nil draw every game has

a goal but looking at switzerland that might be just the one i wasn't particularly impressed to be honest with the way. costa rica survey game was going and the beautiful freaking bias on all of this has to go that it was magnificent that was out of this world but nonetheless i think in this case we're dealing with very two equally strong teams equally compact with players strutting their stuff in the top leagues like england for instance both teams have those in abundance running. security and in switzerland aleksandar kolarov obviously and rich in serbia so this might be a very even game who comes out on top obviously the serbs will be pushing hard not only because they're the winners of the first game unlike switzerland but also look at what happened yesterday with gratian gratian absolutely annihilated argentina as well three nil so serbs don't want to lag behind so what you think is cool prediction and like so what do you think is going to be i'm afraid is going to get a little but if i go for a winning team here i think serbia will make it

a one there where you can west look at some of the the strengths that serbia have i mean i look at some of the exciting players coming through as well at the back that go if not a bitch obviously kind of strengthen as it seems to have been there for a long time as well but also they have exciting players as well matty milinkevich savage as well coming through ripping up a storm my favorite guy by the end he's the guy that everybody starting to watch they've chipped in to be the young star so i think on the whole i'm going to get to say appears well switzerland i've been particularly sullied zubin headroom you know that the brazilians particularly keen on not when they are crying foul but the swiss they tend to defy the odds their unbeaten in seven they're pretty high up in the in the world rankings that one can never really seen with any of those so i think yes i think it can be close but i'm going to say. we'll see we'll find out pretty soon we're going to take a quick look at the swiss team during the world cup in two thousand and ten switzerland did get the better of the european champ.
