Yeah, you do. I'll be rooting for you, and our brothers to the south, in Game 1; but I am staying with Team CONCACAF in Game 2.

Enjoy what's sure to be a thrilling day!

Fortaleza might become the graveyard of European teams, recalling the dismal game of the Germans there. Lucky it was a group game…
Say what you like, I'm routing for the guys in orange, the classic rivalry between them and us can wait until our teams meet......if that should happen!

Good stuff

FUUUUUUUUUCKCKCCKCKCKCKL1!!!

[501IH]

Yes!!!!! What nerves the Dutch have shown. Steel is no appropriate metaphor.
Huntelaar does NOT have a good record in penalties at all when he plays for Schalke in the Bundesliga. The nerves….(not to speak of our nerves watching this....)
Congrats for Oranje to save themselves so late in the game. Can this get any more suspenseful?

[501IH]

Sorry, Kiya…...

How can a belgian not cheer for his dutch brothers

[Seul]

I love my Mexican brothers more…

Seul was pulling against Holland for the same reason I was tempted to pull for Mexico: Borderdom.

Robben is a diving wanker - end of.

The officiating was very inconsistent throughout the game. It was "let em play" and then they tightened it up arbitrarily down the line.

Fundamentally, I think the penalty kick is usually unfair. It's so close that it comes down to the goalie guessing left or right. It makes the penalty for, in this case, a minor foul late in a tied game, almost a death sentence. Perhaps backing it up so that the goalie can at least react would make it a little more fair.
