So how about that local sports team?

 

Old thread here

 

I believe everyone was talking about a player named Robben.

    Spain saves face a little. :)

     

    EDIT: Damn, the Oranje players switched in both just earned their switch handily.

    The Oranje strike.  Lovely header.

    That's some tight marking there. 

     

     

    3-0 for Spain, Mata wise to not pass to Torres.

    This ref makes me laugh. He seems just bemused whenever someone takes a dive. :D

    Good counter there.

    Croatia have now gotten away with multiple obvious handballs, one in the box which should have resulted in a PK.

     

    Edit:  Mexico scores!  Justice has been served.

     

    Edit 2:  Mexico scores again.  That will do it.

    Oranje vs. El Tri should make for a fun match in the knockout round.

    I originally pipped Belgium for a run to the semis, but they haven't got their crap together in the 3 games they've had, whereas Brazil have done a little bit. In terms of actual quality and tactical cohesion I still don't rate Brazil much but they should now have the momentum to beat Chile. Impressed with Oranje's ability to get a comfortable clean sheet win today too, they've got a clear run to the semis avoiding Brazil, Argentina and Germany.

    Hope they crush Mexico, Mexican fans are bloody annoying.  And the Puto-chant crap will go away then, hopefully.

    Compared to that horrible Vuvuzela-crap in the last championship, the Puto-chanting is the choir of angels dawning from mount Celestia.

     

    The Vuvuzela is the equivalent to death of any cultural expression. Kill it with fire and erase its existence from human history all together.

    Didn't bother me all that much, a constant noise can be ignored quite easy.

    Well was amusing seeing the complaining about it, so there was that.   Ah well, the puto shouldn't bother me that much, or be unexpected.  The average football fan isn't all that classy to begin with anyway. :p

    Italy is trying to shut the game down, as 0-0 is enough for their advancement. So far it's working.
