I don't get that his leg was halfway into the next stride and then he realizes and executes flail.exe. It's not the way the sport should be played.

I agree, but at the 90th minute of a elimination game beeing played in hell temperature, I think most players would dive to "make sure" the foul was called.

 

[PoemOfTheLastMoment]

Get ready to see Greece create a phalanx around their own goalposts! XD

 

[RM8]

Mexican fans in here sure are just a tad enraged.

My Facebook newsfeed is falling apart. I don't even like soccer, but this is oddly alluring.

 

[CMojicaAce]

Mexican fans in here sure are just a tad enraged.

I've calmed down

 

[TheBaronOfNA]

They succumbed to faux outrage and they know it.

El leon cree que todos son de su condición.

 

[Nyx]

this really is one of the worst moments of the world cup. so close to getting rid of one of the worst teams. it's hard to see now netherlands not making the final. such a disgusting and boring team in the final two world cups in a row is just terrible. and to think there's a very good chance they will play germany, it's just nightmare fuel all around.

Nope, it's parteh fuel.

All night long (all night, all night)

Oh and you might have missed the fact that there was only 1 team pushing for a goal in the last 40 minutes.

Hup Holland hup!

 

[kamorra]

Guys, guys calm down now. Just think about the excitement Greece will bring us in the next 120 minutes!

 

[ambientmystic]

Mods are here lol, hide all the boobie pictures!

No more hot cameraman supporter gifs

On topic, c'mon Costa Rica beat the Greeks, we need more attacking football in the next round, not less of it lol.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

Look how easily his foot pulls away from the Mexican players foot. He was not stomped on and barely impeded.

by saying 'barely impeded' you mean 'impeded' and impeded in the penalty box is a penalty.

Mexico is lucky it wasn't 3-1 as that wasn't the first time he was fouled in the box.
Shame for mexico as they almost had it, so the healthy amounts of rage/whining is pretty understandable but the dutch won as god intended and all is right with the world. They were kind enough to do it in regular time (just) as well, so my bet paid. HUP HOLLAND.

0-1 after goal on 119' bicycle kick by Gekas

RIP Ticos

I'm not. Maybe it helped that I dislike Herrera.

 

[nny]

So...0-0 after 120 minutes.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

CONCACAF supports our brothers in arms Costa Rica

 

[SkylineRKR]

Worst team in the Cup, yet the most goals. lol.

Same thing here. Before the WC everyone was going on about how he was finally fit, hungry and ready to go but he has been invisible for the most part. Until today. (still like the only standout thing he did all game)

Thats also partially because of tactics. He plays closer to the defensive line. But in ball possession hes poor, his passes aren't as good as they used to be. I hope this goal is a turnaround for him. With a good Sneijder our strikers fare better.

Guys, guys calm down now. Just think about the excitement Greece will bring us in the next 120 minutes!

 

[Tarkus]

Can we please keep this thread SFW?

There's about a thousand other threads and other sites you can goto for boobies.

I haven't seen anything that wasn't SFW unless you work in a church. Where's the foul? I think you're diving.

 

[kamorra]

I'M SO STOKED HOLD MEEEEE

 

[oti]

8:2 for Greece.

Spoiler

1:0 is what I'm hoping for.

Costa Rica 2-0

 

[roytheone]

So, now Costa Rica will completely destroy Greece and this pair of matches will be exactly as I hoped.

 

[Ironjam]

I have a feeling this will be one of the most boring games this world cup. Ugh.

Hoping Costa Rica scores fast so Greece has to attack, otherwise we are looking at a 0-0 game after 120 mins. :\

 

[BMO = GOAT]

Guys, guys calm down now. Just think about the excitement Greece will bring us in the next 120 minutes!

Greatest match that will be played, bank on it m8!

 

[cafemomo]

national anthem time

 

[Buzzati]

2-0 CR

 

[Thorakai]

I haven't seen anything that wasn't SFW unless you work in a church. Where's the foul? I think you're flopping.

fixed.

 

[smurfx]

please win 1-0 costa rica!

 

[Fireblend]

GO COSTA RICA GO

 

[$200]

My back line is ready

 

[Wazzy]

Rooting for Costa Rica in this game. I honestly think they'll take this.

 

[Aiii]

Same thing here. Before the WC everyone was going on about how he was finally fit, hungry and ready to go but he has been invisible for the most part. Until today. (still like the only standout thing he did all game)

He was playing pretty damn awful, constantly losing possession and missing passes, terrible effort except for the goal imo.

Was expecting him to go off for Huntelaar, glad he didn't, but I do hope this goal sets his mind right so he can play better from now on.

 

[Fox318]

 

[NH Apache]

Ticos 3-1. Destroying the Greek defense. New tico-taca.

 

[Guamu]

My Facebook newsfeed is falling apart. I don't even like soccer, but this is oddly alluring.

Really? Mine is quite tame, full of "Well, they played better than expected"

 

[warthog]

Congratulations noorderburen! I didn't watch the game, but I'm sure the country is going crazy now. Hope to meet you in the semis.

 

[kamorra]

Samaras is my personal Jesus.

 

[oti]

Best anthem.

 

[twothunder]

That ending of the Netherlands vs Mexico match. Wow.
I really thought Mexico had the win ,but they lose it in the last few minutes.
Sneijder 's goal was a laser strike and great penalty by Huntelaar.

Ochoa was great though. He'll find a new team without trouble.
Anyway. Nice to see the Dutch team go on.

 

[cafemomo]

lmao

[NYCmetsfan]

I've had a pretty bad run of choosing the team that loses to cheer for in elimination games so far (I was going for Italy, Chile, Mexico but I got Colombia right!). But I'm still going for los ticos! CONCACAF!

 

[TCRS]

 

[Soul Beat]

I've calmed down

I'm getting there. The alcohol helps.

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

0-0 Draw (Costa Rica wins 1-0 in penalties)

 

[Konosuke]

Fernando Santos already getting some shut eye, he knows what's up.

 

[silver.tongue]

Pulling for CRC, but I see Greece winning 1-0.

 

[Acorn]

Ron Atkinson?

Greeks are quite enthusiastic in their album
