Just to refresh everyone's memory and stoke nationalist tensions, NEVER FORGET what the President of Argentina said about Brasileiros -

""The Mexicans came from the Indians, the Brazilians came from the jungle, but we Argentines came from the ships. And they were ships that came from Europe," Fernandez said.

How racist is that statement?

Basically, Brasileiros came from monkeys - macacos

Argentina cannot beat Brasil because they don't have any black players - full stop.

Belgium have underperformed - they should be much better, this is the World Cup. That's Martinez's job, he's the manager.

Credit to Maroc, they were motivated and outstanding.

Costa Rica reaching new levels of efficiency - one shot on goal the entire tournament, one goal, one win, three points.

Cameroon vs Serbia, a pulsating 3 - 3 draw after Cameroon scores twice in three minutes - what a crazy Coupe du Monde, the betting houses must be making a fortune

Seeing and sharing comedy is a great and unique human activity.

Being tone-deaf, ignoring context, and perpetuating abuse/oppression are some of the worst human traits. It's a fine line and harder to find and easier to ignore over the internet.

So don't be so tone-deaf next time
