What is Bergkamp doing in that photo? The big wuss.

Am allready nervous for the game today lads...

But i have a positive feeling anyways..

I think/hope Holland will beat Brasil today with 3-1....

Robben will score twice and Sneijder the other one!!!


Fingers crossed !!





spy.

I think it will be a 3-1 too, but for Brazil.

I'm wearing my blue Brazil shirt and I'll be leaving work in an hour and a half to watch the game at a bar nearby. I'll come back after the game, might be a little tipsy though. Beer at 10:30 in the morning!

I'm rooting for the Netherlands this time. I always liked the Mechanical Orange, always seemed like a great football. Brazil seemed to slow this time around, and too tactical.

I am really betting for a Netherlands vs. Germany Final.

Or, if Brazil wons, a Brazil vs. Argentina.

Both would be hot finals.

Oh crap! Just found out Mick Jagger will be at the game, and cheering for us. He already managed to take USA and England off the WC, guess we're screwed.

 

[Dan_]

^^ No problem LM, he already said he's cheering for Brazil just because of his son, Lucas, but deep inside, he likes the way Argentina is playing.

 

[Blitz187]

^^^ Go MICK!!! Root for Brazil!!

 

[Dan_]

Hmmm, Juicy.

* Runs and starts to pray for a Brazilian win, otherwise facepalm pictures will pop-out from nowhere in this thread *

I heard old Mick was a fan of Brazilians...

 

[Horde_R35]

Now there's one of those players that shoot freekick's with a power Cristiano Ronaldo can only dream of...

You really love Cristiano ! When you see a football picture, you start with that... Thats love, i know it !

 

[Fastas]

I heard old Mick was a fan of Brazilians...

I'm going slightly of topic but, doesn't he prefer to spend his time on the Californian plains?

Anyway,....this will be my first game proper since last Wednesday here's hoping for a good display from both teams.

 

[Horde_R35]

The best game of the WC so far. No doubt at all! Great football played, with very intelligent tatic moves:tup:!

 

[Fastas]

/\ hmm, after the early warning, I'm surprised the Dutch' conceded so quickly. Since then it's been a bit flat and there have been several bookings. The Dutch corner talking also leaves a lot to be desired,...still, a long way to go yet.

 

[Horde_R35]

Brazil will win this game for sure! Holland is playing a fantastic football, but Brazil with a better tactic with the "bless" of their individual technique superiority!

 

[MANU56BZH]

I rediscover Brazil team play like 70' 80' a bite. If brazil play again like that it will be fantastic come back.

 

[Fastas]

The Brazilians seem to be at sorts with themselves,....and as I type; they get a player sent off.

This will be some comeback now.

 

[boiltheocean]

Brazil out! I was expecting them to reach the final with ease.

 

[Vasco]

Urgh, Melo what an idiot. I'm probably being biased, but that ref was more than willing to hand out the card to Bastos but when Kaka, Dani Alves, Robinho are persistently fouled it takes 10 fouls for him to show 1 card, and Bommel didn't even get one.

 

[MANU56BZH]

I rediscover Brazil team play like 70' 80' a bite. If brazil play again like that it will be fantastic come back.

Auto quote.

I rediscover Brazil team play like 1970, 1980. just 10min.
I was saying holland Winer, i m true.
GREAT GAME.

I cant see the Uruguay - Ghana match tonigh. I think Uruguay win. 2 - 1

 

[bullie77]

This was the best game so far in the World Cup.

Congratulations for Holland. I think they deserved it.

(Amazing how many superiority attacking situations they've wasted in the last 10 minutes)

 

[Horde_R35]

Never thought Holland would have the strengh to brake Brazil! Brazil did a spectacular 1st half with a footbal quality that i didnt see in some time... but then a poor start in the 2nd half, with a bad approach! Holland did a great 1st 20 minutes at the beginning of the 2nd half , and after that manage the score with defence practically with no flaws. Brazil broke mentally after the 2nd goal and with the expulsion of that guy that i dont remember the name right now, sorry lol. I was thinking Brazil would turn the score around but it was already a broken team! Better luck next time Brazil and good luck for Holland for the semi-final!

Go Spyrrari, Blitz and Solarsystem!


EDIT: Melo was his name:idea:!

 

[sems4arsenal]

Fantastic entertainment ,Both stunning going forward but the defenve of both really isn't as good ,It is between Holland and Spain now in my opinion,hope RVP starts to show us the deadly striker that he is Soon.

 

[Touring Mars]

Great game, but Robben deserves ten slaps for his ridiculous behaviour - the red card was justified, but Robben's dive precipitated it and was just one of a slew of similar incidents. Arjen, if you are reading (unlikely I know, but hey) - you are a fantastic player, and you don't need to cheat. Stop diving like a jessie every time some air molecules drift past your shins and play football - lest your team's great victories be tainted with a faint waft of cheating.

 

[MANU56BZH]

Yes Robben was playing like an Italian. I dont like that.
i think Holland was lucky than referer was kind for them at moment.

Ye, a bit too kind in my opinion...

 

[livemusic]

Thanks, Mick!

A great first half from Brazil, and a great second half from Holland. Felipe Melo is an idiot and I hope he doesn't get called anymore for the national team.

I hope Germany can make it to the finals, in my opinion they have the best team of those still there. I also hope Uruguay to win against Ghana later.

Edit: I think I jinxed our team by drinking Heineken during the game. Well, at least the beer was good.

 

[Dan_]

Well, nice game to watch, the result isn't surprising at all, as I said, both sides could have take the win, congrats to Holland.

A perfect first half from Brazil, a even more perfect second half to Holland.

I don't feel sad or disappointed, our team did it's best, the defense failed in both goals but there's no one to blame. Congrats to the Oranges, looks like at the end the crocodile choked with the orange.

 

[arvore]

Well just arrived home after a busy day with a Checkoslovakia entrepreneur who doesn't like football so no chances of watching the match

Just to realize that my favourite team to the final win is out of the world cup

For what I read(trying to watch the match latter,seems worthy from what I've read) Filipe Melo screwed up big time again...what a douchebag

 

[Blitz187]

Really good match!!! Lots of action and why do the Brazilians have to start stomping and throwing hissy fits when things dont go their way?? Dont get me wrong, the Dutch had their fair share of dirty plays, but Brazil were acting like babies at a certain point... Stomping on Robben??? You dont win World Cups like that...

Chances are indeed slim he will be reading that, I do however know someone who's a colleague of his dad ( or at least used to be ) but I think you'll understand I'm not really bothered to point it out to him.

That was Felipe Melo, he can't be considered a player....he's more like a butcher.

Anyway, nice game so far, Suarez is dangerous as always. Only one question, what's wrong with his teeth? He never, ever closes his mouth, seems like he's always fatigued....
