What's this?
 
So I'm just asking because I really don't know. This match right now, is this considered boring? There's quite some stuff going on here in my opinion, but I don't watch club football so I don't know anything.

It's generally more exciting when the midfielders and forwards run at the other teams defence and try to make something happen - a beautifully cutting pass, a dummy that scythes the defence open to bring a scoring chance,

When both teams do this on every posession it's considered 'end to end' football and that is exciting to watch.

Here Greece has basically 9 players in their own half stifling anything the Costa Ricans try and occasionally they heave it up the pitch to their lone striker who does nothing with it.
 
Edit. NVM, he meant the one on the first half. Ohh well, move on...

Sorry if old. Robben admitted he dived on the Mexico-Netherlands and wasn't a penalty, according to Telegraaf.nl.

Here's the Google Translation:

Robben: "Sorry for diving"

Arjen Robben had earned a penalty just before the break, but confessed that he went into the first heflt once without reason to the ground. "I want to apologize. I was diving. Sometimes you expect a kick, but I should not do this. Truly awful stupid."

Robben felt he ought to have. Two penalties before halftime in a situation "He hit me on my shin and must then itself off with an injury," referring to the 30-year striker Hector Moreno.

Robben continued to NOS: "Then I get hit again if that is not a penalty, I do not know."

Yes, but he isn't talking about the one that was awarded as a penalty. He's talking about the extremely blatant flop earlier in the match which the ref rightly didn't give anything for. (Although he should have given him a yellow for it, admittedly)
