Netherlands V Brazil, this is a tough one to call. I am going to go for 2-0 to Brazil, think Holland rely too heavily on Robben
We do, we honestly do. But... somehow we stumbled through that, mostly thanks to Brazil not continuiing as they played in the first half.
Also, Van Bommel en De Jong are the heart of the team, camouflaging a weak defense, and Kuijt deserves a statue for all the running he does.
Nice one, congratulations. Makes me feel a tiny bit better about getting stuffed by Holland in the qualifications.
Victory is mine!

TBH, goaltending should be in place in situations like that, even though I supported Uruguay
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Poor,poor Ghana. I feel really really sorry for Ghian, he'll probably remember this for the rest of his life.
I hope Holland destroys Uruguay. Oh and that Uruguay get a penalty shoot and miss it.

I dislike Suarez, he's a tosser, but I'm with him on that one. He played by the rulebook.
I don't like that he's bragging about it, though.

The Dutch might have played Total Football, but 2010 Germany is re-imagining the fucking Blitzkrieg.
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Argentina got severely devastated. Brilliant play by Germany, really. Everything seems to be pointing for a Holland - Germany final.

Both England and Argentina basically handed the game over to Germany on a silver platter. Complete and utter useless defending, drop a shit goal dead early, and try and chase the rest of the game while getting carved up on the break. That first goal yesterday was horrific defending on a corner..Later on, Podolski and Schweinsteiger got to stroll around endlessly with no one anywhere near them. Germany ARE very impressive, but the three blow out games they've won were all games which the opposition played right into their hands.

Hm, I am from Germany, but I have to say that I liked NL vs. Brazil (2:1) much more.
By the end of that game the Dutch looked dead on their feet and still they fought on and on and won - a well deserved victory.
