Football is primarily about people having a bit of quality on the ball. This game had none of that.

But in your world I suppose both teams sitting on the edge of their 18 yard box makes up for that.

Nigel de Jong did a double heel flick to waylay two attackers. Remember that? That was something.

Sigh.
 
As a guy who doesn't like football and doesn't watch the World Cup apart from when somebody else in the room is watching it, this is excruciatingly boring. Especially as a Dutch guy.

Huntelaar warming up, no Krul for PKs !

No, you are wrong.
Why do you think neither of the teams have managed to score with players like Robben, Van Persie, Messi and Higuain (earlier) ? It was because of how well planned and executed the defense is for both teams.

Nope. It's because both teams are playing shit.
 
Opinions.

Some are wrong. The match is not even interesting from a tractical point of view, just two mediocre teams playing against each other.

They're not mediocre, in a masochistic kind of way I'm enjoying the "cup" of four Argentinian defenders around every attacking Dutchman. It's really well organized. But it kills all excitement.
