The 2014 FIFA World Cup
-
I don't feel bad for anyone. It's a game - sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, no-one has a divine right to win and as a nation Brazil has to accept that and get over it. I say that as an England fan so I am used to abject misery and an endless string of abysmal displays. Bizarrely there was a huge amount of expectation that England would win things until comparatively recently, but that finally seems to have disappeared with this year's shot of reality. I like it when favourites lose, although Germany were hardly an underdog here! I have to support those perennial bridesmaids, the Dutch now.

Tonight depends on two people, Messi and Robben.

Really looking forward to the game today. I've been a fan of both the Netherlands and Argentina for quite a while. I was hoping for a Brazil Argentina final, but now I really just want great match. I really hope it's not lopsided like yesterday. 3-2 would be perfect if the soccer gods could oblige.
-
Tense game, both cancelling each other out so far.
-
I can barely watch this.. I would almost rather turn the tv set off and turn it back on once it's decided.
-
No Tim Krul, no penalty win. Good luck Argentina, I have a feeling they're going to need it.
-
Intense. I'm glad they were saves rather than off frame. I think that Argentina will play up to the German's level. Sunday can't come soon enough.
-
I'm just glad that two teams that play the game after in the final.

LOL, that's exactly what I did!
And I was sorry the Netherlands lost, especially on penalties - such a shame.
-
After the last penalties of the Netherlands I am glad it went like this. Although it seems to prove Krul right.
Looking Forward to Germany - Argentina. Not an easy one, but we have won the last World Cup Matches against them, could rest a day longer, didn't have 120 mins to Play and have the support of the local fans. Not to mention the 7:1 and Manuel Neuer. Now they just Need to stay focused and don't take it for granted and it will be fine. (That's probably the most patriotic thing I ever wrote in here. ;D).
-
The Max Power way is the right way once again! Germany must take nothing for granted, and every game has its own laws. Over-confidence could be treacherous. I'm certain we won't see a Brazil-Germany 2.0 game in the final.
