World Cup 2014

Because Australia isn't Spain?

if ever a game called for a typical dutch 4-3-3 this is it. Holland have had no control of the game at all. Admittedly early days but they look as poor as Argentina's first half the other day.

why would you set up to counter vs australia?

Exactly

long ball trash

Aus is fielding five midfielders, Holland three. smdh

man see u

owns this world cup

Aussie just let him score that one, no?

WOW

Haha wow

OMG

whoooooa tim!

Cahill. Belter

AT LAST A GREAT VOLLEYED GOAL

Well this match suddenly turned crazy.

that is mb the best goal of the tournament so far

lol at the sad aussie fan in the kangaroo hat after robben scored tho

what in hells name am I missing now

https://vine.co/v/MTu5l3thuMr

van persie-esque

fuuuuuuuck meeeee that was two beautiful goals.

robben run unmolested from halfway line slotted finish

folowed by diag to cahill over the heads of 2 defenders
caught on the volley from 17 yards thundered off the underside of the bar and in

xp to darragh

RVP's goal is still better

Yeah it was. Superb all the same

okay it's not early anymore. change it lvg.

i am sitting in an actual rubber room on the inpatient psych unit (now converted into resident work space) and just yelled "oh my god" at that cahill goal

not the best or most appropriate place for sudden exclamations from the guy in the white coat but it's cool

should have scored there

Our defenders are just hoofing balls to the front, there is no midfield.

this is so so bad by holland. completely outplayed so far.

Just look at it. No midfielders to build up play. Dire passing. This is an atrocity.

hoofing over midfield? perfect for a new utd manager, says sergio busquiets

had no midfield vs spain but that made sense because spain clearly superior in MF, this makes no sense whatsoever. Australia not playing such a high line as Spain.

i get that with no strootman LVG thinks they'll struggle to play thru MF but there must be someone good enough to match the aussie MF

Exactly. How come you and I can see that, but LvG can't?

Xp

I don't feel quite so silly for putting the Australian flag out on the front porch this morning now :D

Yellow for Cahill means he's out for the game against Spain

Good the dirty bastard

DEPAY IS WARMING UP! DEPAY IS WARMING UP! #elsalvador

goddammit

Cahill butchered Martins Indi :-(

very unkewell of cahill

v. excited to see Memphis

My work fantasy football team had Shirokov, Almeida, Coentrao, Martins Indi and Altidore. Can only be a matter of time before the other six are crocked.

Depay on, which means a switch to 4-3-3. Can't be worse than this. Plus, Depay will score at least once.

Xavi and Pique dropped btw

koke? martiniez?

Martinez and Pedro in

so is silva playing in MF with iniesta and busquets??

Alonso is playing
