Still the only team to score 2 against Netherlands

SOCCERROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS

 

[Goldmund]

Really? Cause all I hear from commentators during brazil Matches is NEYMAR! HULK! NEYMAR! HULK!

The latter who isn't even that good

I think he's fantastic. So much stamina.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Probably the least fitting title change. NED dominated and justice was served in PK.

 

[walkman121]

Man of the match, yes?

Of course

 

[tbm24]

In this case they can talk about the team and not the confederation.

That's up to them now isn't it?

 

[SargerusBR]

Can't believe people are ranking ARG and BRA without Di Maria and Neymar ahead of Netherlands who have all their best players still healthy.

The same Netherlands that barely managed to beat Costa Rica?

 

[kingkitty]

Brazil had been weakened by their last match.

Germany will crush them.

And then Germany will be crushed by Argentina.

Messi will be crowned King.

 

[Error]

Holland looks like they peaked with the Spain trashing, subsequent games they have played worse and worse. Whereas Argentina finally looked solid today. 50-50 IMO.

I fully expect Brazil to go through against Germany. Home team+Hyper motivated because of the Neymar injury will probably propelled them past Germany.

 

[John Dunbar]

That's the thing though they have the players but the team hasn't played that great. They've been extremely lucky and they haven't really played that well throughout the tournament

it's not like germany has been lighting the world on fire after routing subpar portugal.

 

[Arxisz]

Concacaf destroyed by the Netherlands.Fuck yeah bitches.

 

[MPW]

Balsy move by Van Gaal, congrats.

Brasil - Netherlands finals is inevitable now.

neymar injured and silva suspended ... things don't look good for brazil

 

[TCRS]

your language is so weird dutchies. I understand every word but it sounds so dumb.

 

[Fergie]

Costa Rica were warriors. Congrats CR-GAF.

Be proud.

Fuck England.

 

[Fireblend]

anyways, congrats Costa Rica. it was a great ride. you guys did really well this tournament and should be very proud.

Oh we're proud. All those people talking about us playing anti football and hoping we won't make it back to the cup and whatnot can go fuck off

 

[The007JiM]

Is Thiago Silva the only player that will miss the semis?

 

[LNBL]

Can't believe people are ranking ARG and BRA without Di Maria and Neymar ahead of Netherlands who have all their best players still healthy.

De Jong

 

[Diprosalic]

It is really weird though, the BBC I think did a bit about it in the pregame yesterday. It's completely alien to any European to root for 'uefa'. It just doesn't make sense to support a country just because they're in the same confederation. Which in CONCACAFs case is a pretty corrupt and shitty one.

If anything we cheer against other UEFA teams. I'm always rooting against Italy and Spain and almost everyone was for Costa Rica just now.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

Meme quickness never ceases to amaze.

"I couldn't avenge you."

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Still the only team to score 2 against Netherlands

No bus parking needed c:

Um the Netherlands scored 3 on you, so I'm not even sure what you're celebrating here

 

[jtb]

Is Thiago Silva the only player that will miss the semis?

Neymar, unless you mean just suspensions

 

[Goldmund]

That's the thing though they have the players but the team hasn't played that great. They've been extremely lucky and they haven't really played that well throughout the tournament

I think the German team is better, but I don't think they'll win.

 

[Darknight]

I love how NEDs goalie left running for his life. He was like NOPE! I feel that the CRC goalie took a beating and he stayed with his team. A true team member. Anyways Argentina coming for revenge and they thirsty.

 

[Baleoce]

The same Netherlands that barely managed to beat Costa Rica?

I think Costa Rica fully deserved to be where they are on their own merit.

 

[SkylineRKR]

Yeah, Netherlands will actually be playing against a good team when they play Argentina. Netherlands have done a good job of riding their luck but beating Argentina will be a step too far for them IMO.

Perhaps. Who knows Argentina will finally beat us in a tournament. But perhaps we will beat them yet again. It can go either way. Argentina didn't impress me but Messi seems to crawl to better form slowly but surely.

It's really weird and makes no sense

 

[sestrugen]

WRONG.

are we, tv-watchers, part of those teams now? I'm glad I won then. I just hope they start sending me the checks I rightfully deserve for being a part of the team.

I'll probably sue though since I didn't get the correct uniform

You know what he means, you are just dense, stop being dense

 

[Keio]

How many posts/crossbars for us (NED)?

I will sleep in my Newcastle United shirt tonight.

 

[dubc35]

Concacaf destroyed by the Netherlands.Fuck yeah bitches.

destroyed =/= win in PK's

 

[Zoned]

Can't believe people are ranking ARG and BRA without Di Maria and Neymar ahead of Netherlands who have all their best players still healthy.

Yeah as if both of these teams have only 1 top player right...

 

[MPW]

this

 

[YesNOnoNOYes]

great four in the top four : D


but im still thinking we gonna go BRA - ARG final \o/

 

[Charles Foster Kane]

Oh we're proud. All those people talking about us playing anti football and hoping we won't make it back to the cup and whatnot can go fuck off

Yes we are

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

The same Netherlands that barely manged to beat Costa Rica?

hahah nice short sighted memory. Why not bring up how Brazil barely beat Chile and how Argentina barely beat Switzerland?

 

[lord quas]

Penalties are fucking tense... so glad we won

 

[plantedunicorn]

it's not like germany has been lighting the world on fire after routing subpar portugal.

True that but they've been more impressive compared to Brazil. Why the hell is Fred still in the starting XI? Do they not have any other options up front?

 

[BatiGOOOOOOL]

Congrats to Netherlands. We all knew they were the better team from the start and it was incredibly tough for a team that obviously doesn't have the experience or personnel that the dutch have, but I can't shake the bad taste in my mouth from the two clear penalties the ref didn't give us during the 90 minutes.

Rooting for NL to take it all though. They have always been my favorite international team other than my country.

 

[MrS]

Perhaps. Who knows Argentina will finally beat us in a tournament. But perhaps we will beat them yet again. It can go either way. Argentina didn't impress me but Messi seems to crawl to better form slowly but surely.

Yeah, he's a problem. It's gonna be a great match, as is Brazil vs Germany. I CAN'T WAIT!

 

[The Inventor]

Is Thiago Silva the only player that will miss the semis?

You're forgetting Neymar.

 

[SkylineRKR]

Yeah as if both of these teams have only 1 top player right...

Van Persie plays like shit though. Its basically only Robben at this point.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

I've been pretty impartial but this victory has been the most justified of the tourney. NED is leagues ahead of CR despite that back line.

 

[clemenx]

Which rivalry has more hatred? Argentina - Brazil or Netherlands - Germany? Not limited to football.

I want blood in the final

 

[Ganzlinger]

Still the only team to score 2 against Netherlands

No bus parking needed c:

I really loved the way the Aussies played in this WC. They knew they weren't that good but played an offensive football everytime they had the ball. Deserved better luck.

 

[Wind's Howling]

WRONG.

are we, tv-watchers, part of those teams now? I'm glad I won then. I just hope they start sending me the checks I rightfully deserve for being a part of the team.

Oh, seriously. Shut up. You are making yourself sound like a fool. Football fans in this thread will agree with me.

"We" is something as fans say. It is common knowledge around the globe. Stop acting like you are Jesus.

 

[LicenceToK1ll]

destroyed =/= win in PK's

Uhmmm could have 8-0 or something

 

[ronito]

It's going to be Germany vs Netherlands. Which puts me in a hard spot as I'm a fan of both

 

[Rad-]

Yeah, Netherlands will actually be playing against a good team when they play Argentina. Netherlands have done a good job of riding their luck but beating Argentina will be a step too far for them IMO.

Argentina is the team that has had by far the easiest road so far. If anything, they could flop against Holland.

 

[Timbuktu]

hahah nice short sighted memory. Why not bring up how Brazil barely beat Chile and how Argentina barely beat Switzerland?

They have all been shit.

 

[daydream]

I've got nothing against CONCACAF's solidarity, just please don't assume the same applies to European teams.

It's not our fault the Europeans all seem to hate each other

 

[kingkitty]

I have no absolutely no problem with the way Costa Rica played.

You gotta do what you gotta do. It might be incredibly boring, but hey, it almost paid off for Costa Rica. Nothing "anti-whatever" about it. Now, if Costa Rica dived every second in order to open up goal opportunities, or breaking people's vertebrae, then I would call that "anti-football". I think.
