First topic message reminder :

Maybe Toure just never saw Mexico's game against Cameroon or Bosnia's game against Nigeria?

Someone bookmark the page Ent said something positive.

by Scrumpy Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:45 pm

RVP looks spent get him off.

by Scrumpy Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:46 pm

Gooooooooaaaaaaaaaalllllllll

by Scrumpy Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:47 pm

Wishful thinking!

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:48 pm

I do like me some sergio aguero

by Scrumpy Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:49 pm

Should have scored

by Ent Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:50 pm

Too many touches robben!!

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:50 pm

Incredible tackle by Mascherano

by kingraf Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:51 pm

Why take an extra touch? Mascherano boss as usual...

by Knowsit17 Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:52 pm

Somebody please score now. I resent how most games I watch are this attritional and drawn out.

by Scrumpy Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:53 pm

Feck it

by Ent Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:53 pm

Suits Germany this.

by Scrumpy Wed 09 Jul 2014, 10:59 pm

by Lowlandbrit Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:02 pm

Pretty selfish of Brazil and Germany to use up all of the goals last night.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:07 pm

They're gonna go through again. This Dutch side...

by NickisBHAFC Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:07 pm

This is painful to watch.

by Liam Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:11 pm

Just feel if Holland want it they'll get it. Argentina haven't done anything and for me, Holland look the most likely to score if they go for it.

by Ent Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:12 pm

Both teams afraid of losing.

by kingraf Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:14 pm

James Rodriguez for the golden ball (do they still vote before the final?)

Actually very much agree with that.

by Ent Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:15 pm

He deserves it, best player, currently top scorer and goal of tournament.

by Hammersmith harrier Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:16 pm

Just realised who the referee is, what a prat.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:18 pm

Holland haven't scored since the dying embers of the second round. Nearly 240 odd mins ago #LVG #tacticalgenius

by GSC Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:20 pm

I like to think Ent is Lawros long lost son

by Ent Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:21 pm

Kuyt very limited but a top professional and built like a brick Poopie house - that will have shaken zabaleta.

by The Special Juan Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:21 pm

This is the most evenly matched game I've ever seen.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:23 pm

Chelsea vs Man United is going to be a thriller of two games next year. #nilnilnilnil

by NickisBHAFC Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:23 pm

Worst game of the tournament by a country mile for me.

by The Special Juan Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:24 pm

Iran Nigeria?

Truth be told, neither side has really set the tournament alight (except Holland in the first week). Argentina too have only been scraping wins throughout the KO stages.

Strikes me as a manager who'd rather not lose than win, at least in the knockout stages. He might be a bit more exciting in the league.

by GSC Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:25 pm

Only 120 minutes of extra time to be added on

by Nachos Jones Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:25 pm

I cant see the Dutch winning if it goes to penalties this time but it really appears to be heading that way.

Hasn't got the players to be fair.

Think he's done well getting here with this squad.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:27 pm

LET IT DROP TO VOLLEY IT

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:28 pm

I wish Van Gaal wasnt United manager so the continuous bias didnt have to run through here too.

by kingraf Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:28 pm

Nederland dont do goals..

by kingraf Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:28 pm

Costa Rica Greece and it's not even close

That was more as expected though, can't imagine too many people were buzzing for that one, compared to this one. This has been just as much fun as watching pant dry.

Even in the NFL that would be a foul

Mascherano motm?

Bit depressing.

by NickisBHAFC Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:34 pm

Ahhhh well. We all love a penalty shoot out!

by Liam Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:34 pm

I'm calling it, messi to miss his penalty and holland to win

by Ent Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:35 pm

Fancy Argentina now.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:37 pm

The Dutch will win, keeper will make a big save to show he can do it.

Nigeria Iran was definitely the worst game.

by Ent Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:38 pm

Vlaar? What te hell?

by The Special Juan Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:39 pm

There's only 1 player on this pitch that would have the Germans even remotely concerned and that's Messi. If the Dutch win this then they might as well start engraving.

by Ent Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:39 pm

Lvg 0/10.

Negative marks.

Never, ever let a limbering centre half take a penalty.

This is done and dusted.

by whocares Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:40 pm

Haha weird bet by VanGaal

by The Special Juan Wed 09 Jul 2014, 11:40 pm

The Frak is Roncrete taking the first penalty for?
