Rio de Janiero - 2014 Fifa World Cup Thread

[Nachos Jones]

First topic message reminder :

Pretty much the same as you Nachos but I'll come out of the cellar and pick Belgium over USA.

Belgium have not impressed me at all, lack cohesion. I think that under Klinsmann, the USA are tactically superior and will pick Belgium on a counter attack.

[Nachos Jones]

What a save   

[Ent]

Just luck, it was smashed straight at him.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Just luck, it was smashed straight at him.

I have to agree with ent here, its hit him square in the face and then onto the post luckily

[Nachos Jones]

Well that's woken Oranje up...

[Nachos Jones]

And in Hengelo Holland, its strangely quiet outside...

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Get up Robben you tart

[Ent]

Just get it out to robben if you are the Dutch, Mexico struggling to deal with him.

[Nachos Jones]

Gets to his feet and stays on his feet and Robben could have gotten a good cross in there, instead he chooses to dive again. Surely he must wake up and realise that the ref is awake to his antics?

[Dolphin Ziggler]

If Robben could pass they'd maim Mexico

[Duty281]

Robben is the only sustained threat that the Dutch have.

[kingraf]

the funny thing about Robben is that everyone in the stadium knows what he's going to do, and there's absolutely nothing they can do about it.

[mystiroakey]

dammed if you do , dammed if you dont. Robben shouldnt have hurdled that challenge

[Ent]

Surprised rvp has been taken off.

[Nachos Jones]

Huntelaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar in, gwan ya local boy you.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Huntelaar for Van Persie?

How the bloomin heck is sneijder still on the pitch!

[kingraf]

Klaas is in the squad? SHOCKER

[Ent]

the funny thing about Robben is that everyone in the stadium knows what he's going to do, and there's absolutely nothing they can do about it.

That's real world class ability though.

[Nakatomi Plaza]

Big call that. He hasn't been particularly effective second half mind.

[kingraf]

Klaas is in the squad? SHOCKER

[Nachos Jones]

Huntelaar is a goal scorer, pure and simple. Does feck all else but gets into those goal scoring positions.

[Ent]

This time wasting is doing my head in already.

[Nachos Jones]

Scneijder is a favourite of LvG, he wont take him off. Its like van Bommel was with van Maarwijk last WC (well almost, van Bommel was van Maarwijks son in law).

[mystiroakey]

LVG not affraid to take of RVP..

interesting

[Ent]

The Dutch look spent.

[Nachos Jones]

Nederland wont get a flippen set piece now that Hunterlaar is on. Godverdomme.

[Ent]

Old school tactics here, hit it long to the big man amongst the small defenders.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Ochoa's turned into the goalkeeper that FM always told me he would

[westisbest]

Ah, c'mon Holland, you cant go out, very limited interest if you do.


Pleaaaase don't go out 

[mystiroakey]

well i thought this would be a dutch battering.

How wrong was I.

well played Mexcio!

[Dolphin Ziggler]

SNEIJDER LIVES

[Duty281]

Wow the power on that!

[Nachos Jones]

1-1

[Nakatomi Plaza]

Sneidjer silences Olly!

[westisbest]

GET IN WOOOOO

[mystiroakey]

GET IN I JINXED EM!!

[kingraf]

I told you all Sneijder is the s#it

[Pal Joey]

There we go! Goal.

So my 1-1 prediction is right. So far.

[Ent]

Is lvg a genius now Schneider scored?

Some strike.

Man on the post FFs!

[The Special Juan]

Disappointed Ochoa didn't save that.

[mystiroakey]

come on just get the win in 90..

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Inevitable

[Dolphin Ziggler]

They all prepare for extra time now, this match will just peter out for a bit

[Nachos Jones]

Hengelo explodes

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Still he's been absolute dog crap

[mystiroakey]

They all prepare for extra time now, this match will just peter out for a bit

no!!!

holland to win- there must be another 6 minutes added due to the water break

[Lowlandbrit]

Weschley Schneijder wisch the equalischer!

Scneijder is a favourite of LvG, he wont take him off. Its like van Bommel was with van Maarwijk last WC (well almost, van Bommel was van Maarwijks son in law).

Van Gaal nearly didn't even select Sneijder, didn't think he worked hard enough.

[mystiroakey]

and its 6 mins

[kingraf]

Lord... pretty Dutch girls...

[mystiroakey]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

[Nachos Jones]

Holy Jaysus
