I hate "gloating" but I remember saying: "I have a feeling Argentina will reach the final playing like shit". And hey, what do you know...

though, to be fair, I though this was their best match. Not very easy on the eyes, I think, but smartly played. Mascherano's tackle denying Robben was sublime.

Congrats to ArgentinaGAF! Also, a GG to Ned-GAF for reaching this stage. Can't stand Van Gaal and Robben, but I always tend to like Netherlands teams. I hope you can reach this stage in 2018!

As for the final... rooting for Germany. Sorry hermanos trasandinos! ;)
 
Once it went to penalties it was pretty certain Argentina was going to win. Cilessen still hasn't saved a single penalty. Go Germany : D
 
Meh, I would have prefered the Netherlands as our opponent in the final. Both teams will put up a better fight than Brazil but Holland seems to be less predictable. And it's more fun to beat the Dutch :P
 
Conflicted about the final. Would like Messi to finally get his WC, but Germany has been my pick since 2006.

I can only hope for an entertaining match not like today's.
 
Netherlands denied again. Woooooo!

Mascherano and Romero won us the match.

This is the first time Argentina will play a final during my lifetime. Let's hope it's a good one.

E negli occhi tuoi
voglia di vincere

un aventura in piu

Let's go Germans! Round 2!
 
Kinda wanted the Dutch to win so we at least got the Brazil/Argentina third place match, but I'll take it. Kind of funny that the third place match is the better matchup. Still, Germany/Argentina should be relatively competitive, but yeah, Germany wins.
 
I guess I'll have to root for the team that completely humiliated us. Just because I can't handle freaking Argentina winning the World Cup in my country :(
 
The local betting site has only one bet available for the world cup:
"Brazil to lose 3rd place-match with 6 goals or more (?) "

You get money back 1000x if they do, haha.
 
Considering the low expectations beforehand I can I'm really proud of what our team still managed to accomplish. It was truly a team and so many players had crucial roles. Depay, Fer, Robben, Van Persie, Krul, Kuyt, Sneijder, Blind, Vlaar, Huntelaar and De Jong all had their moments. It was definitely not the best squad The Netherlands ever had, but LvG did a great job with what was handed to him. We simply weren't good enough.

It'll be interesting to see what kind of team we'll have in four years, though.
 
IM SO HAPPY

IS THERE ANYTHING BETTER THAN WATCHING THE DUTCH LOSE?????


You SUCK at football, you turn EVERY game in boring crap, AND NOW IT BITES YOU IN THE ASS.

Cant even score on penalties!!!
Looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool


Man, I wonder what you would do with yourself if we somehow end up winning the entire thing. So much hatred.


LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Cant wait to see you get destroyed again on Saturday :D :D :D
 
Argentina deserves to win in this match. They played better and had very close chances of scoring. Their defense was incredible in this match and they knew how to contain Robben very well. If they play this good against Germany, they would have a good chance of winning.

You could say the exact same thing if NED had won. Just replace robben with messi. I'd say they were as equal as they could be
