Lucky deflection but well taken by Higuain.

I still think Belgium can come back.

Belgium really disappointing first half, although they haven't scored in the first 70mins of any game so far.

Hoping the Belgians get it together, would prefer them to go through. Usually score late in games so there is still a chance.

Belgium have looked much better since they abandoned any pretence of playing football and just started launching it into the area

I don't think Belgium have surprised anyone either way in this tournament.

Lame effort from Belgium, there was as much chance of them scoring in that game as there was France against Fritz.

Fellaini is just an annoying clumsy lummox. lols entertainment between the Argie and Brazil fans giving it large to each other.......the Belgians must have felt like rent-a-mob extras even though their own team was playing.

This WC is rapidly getting boring.

Germany huffing and puffing, Brazil and the Argies both dogshit

As I said before, everyone thinks their great as they play in Premier League and household names but basically they are only just better than England and that's no compliment!

They've got a lot of good players, but ones that don't quite fit into a team yet. And they were seriously light on experience and depth upfront.

I don't think everyone does think they're great - HNA was awash with comments pre-tournament about how they were the most overrated underdogs ever.

Kevin Mirallas is okay but pinning your WC hopes on him is like pinning them on Sean Wright-Phillips or Aaron Lennon. Lukaku has been gash for ages, so much so that he got dropped.

Kompany is world class but that's about it. Hazard I suppose but he had a poor tourney.

The Belgians only seemed to step up the tempo in the last 5 minutes; Argentina look very ordinary with one quality player.

The quarter finals have been a real let down after the quality of the tournament up to now.

Think Argentina will miss Di Maria if he's out. He's been consistently their biggest creative threat in the games I've seen. Even if he had a howler the other day. He was still the only one trying to do the damage.
