I watched it, that's what hey wanted mostly i think, all the game played in the mid field just passes.


The Dutch traditionally suck at penalties. Claiming we were depending on them is stupid.

Aaaaaaaaand Estado Paulista can't be feeling very good right now.

Nonetheless, what an utterly boring match. Argentina deserved it a bit more going by how they played, but still, I was expecting much more from both sides.

Alright Argentina. Now you just have to defend the reputation of the entire Americas in the finals. But no pressure.

So, the final in the Brazilian world cup will be between Brazil's archenemy and the team that gave the Selecao its most humiliating defeat ever.

Very disappointed at that Dutch performance. The Argentinian one wasn't much better either, but alas they had a superior goalkeeper for the PKs.

Henceforth, it's a dream. Not a possibility, not a reality, a dream. And Argentina can make it happen :blush:.
