I would think that would be Sepp Blatter's final corrupt gift to football.  To add to his endless list.  What with his mate Beckenbauer beng banned fro football for 90days and all !

Ohhh how I want Holland to win this!!! Ben a fan ever since Gullit and Van Basten were in orange. And seeing as Denmark were complete w.a.n.k.e.r.s. in the qualifying round, I need another team to root for....
Mjeah.... I wouldn't be sad if Brasil went with it either, but that's because I enjoy the game, and they play it wonderfully. 'Play' being the keyword here. I loved em back when I was a wee kid too.

I had to do a search on the web here to see what happened to Denmark as they are usually in this thing no? I'd love to see Holland do really well just for the sake of my very old neighbour who's from there and a huge fan of the game. He keeps up with the Dutch league by watching it on TV, must be some sort of pay per view? Anyway that game today should give a good indication where both Spain and The Netherlands are.

Apparently that was enough for him to go down like he was shot. Ermm
He should be embarrassed & fined.

Thank goodness Mexico won, they had 2 perfectly good goals disallowed in the first half, horrible decisions by the linesman. Cameroon were pathetic.

Weird Cup 2014: it's raining a lot in Salvador (Spain x Netherlands) and rained also a lot in Natal (Mexico x Cameroon), the SUNNY cities of Brazil!

Maybe we'll have snow in Curitiba (not rare there, it's almost Winter here) and it'll be the 1st game in the history of the World Cup played under snowfall.

Both teams are in good shape imo. Everything can happen really, especially if they keep up this kind of game. Hell then they'll both go far in this competition. Great football!
Oh and Go Freaking Holland!!! Yeeeeeeeeesss!!!!
And they just scored again!!!!!! 3 - 1 baby

Who do you favour Espen? I guess my pick is pretty obvious, but you on the other hand live in the mediterranean.



Lucky b*****d

What a blunder by Casillas! David, I favour Holland, mostly because Spain has won too much the last years. And I often favour the underdog.

Even if I feel sorry for Casillas. That was awful.

Me too. In most aspects of life also
And agreed about Casillas. What happened there? In Denmark we call that a 'hjerneblødning'.
