World Cup 2014

yeah a clear penalty, tired from Marquez.

why are netherlands always such natural villains?

because they are dressed in all orange? it hurts my eyes

just saw a kuyt-to-unspecified MLS team rumor, lol

i am, for the first time in years, removing my 5th element cosplay as protest

billo won't be told re robben pen

i don't know if it's ruud vn's mum who dresses him or his wife or some random blind person but he needs to bring in a professional

bit disappointed w/ this result, Colombia vs Mexico would've been a fun semi-final. fuck a dutchman tbh, they didn't deserve that

trading Marquez from my FIFA squad when I get home

I'd like there to be an extra world cup slotted in that Mexico get to win, then they're a normal unjinxed country afterwards. Feel like they're a great absent pole for world football. Maybe Qatar 2022 could be used for that.

go back to giving them every 4th tournament and they'll get there

Let's go buy a Kuyt

netherlands has been in that other world cup for many years i htink

Chiles will not stop saying "van Huntelaar"

Was MEX actually considering putting Chicharito in goal for that pen? presumably they would have had to sub Ochoa out first?

wat

Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

was the "cuntelaar" a better shot than the hamez cunt, cahill cunt or rvp's dying swan?

don't think u can realistically nickname it that tbh mate

so it's NL v Costa Rica or Greece in the quarter final and then Argentina/Switzerland/Belgium/USA in the semi?

correct, ned vs arg in the semi

yup. repeat of '78 final plz.

netherlands-germany final would be disappointing

np colombia got u back

colombia, france, argentina and, just about, brazil are all preferable imo

looking forward to Colombia-Argentina in the final tbh

Mexico really have nothing to complain about, they weren't equipped to hold onto a 1 goal lead for that length of time against the Netherlands

ooooh - big mistake, KLM twitter feed person. xpost

<3 Bernal tho

Aranguiz penalty yesterday the best one of the tournament so far. Even if it didn't actually change anything.

Feel like the finalists being both good and from different continents is key now. Torn between France-Argentina and Colombia-Holland I think.

@PCarrESPN: The Dutch win is the 1st time a team has won a WC knockout game in regulation after trailing in the 88th min.

a Greece-USA final isn't possible, thankfully

So would love that to be the final.

lol kind of inevitable that when that record was broken it would be Mexico on the receiving end

messi scoring the winner against brazil in the maracana is too perfect to happen

Then there would be a new quote: "Down through its history, only threefour people have managed to silence the Maracana."

Kinda heartbrokem for Mexico but they were slipping towards the end. Ochoa is still a beast, he shouldn't have that loss on his shoulders

No comment on the Mexican fans yelling 'puto' / faggot on every kick? FIFA said it's no big deal.

that was the name of their dog(s)?

STOKED.

This is not a pro-Greece crowd.

both captains are fulham players. is this some parallel universe where multiple fulham players captain sides in the k/o rounds of the WC?

Ticos really looking very handy so far, Campbell coming deep and knitting stuff together nicely, legs aplenty down the flanks, and their team movement is just lovely.

Just caught up with the holland-mexico game on delay. Yay Holland. Clear penalty. Happy for the Hunter. Martin O'Neill talking absolute shit as per. Now for Costa Rica-Greece. Usual Greece or Ivory Coast Greece I wonder.

Greece are giving it a bit of a go, actually. Christodoulopoulos is making his runs again and linking up quite nicely with Samaras on the left.

sadly Senderos isn't captain of Switzerland

Was Dejagah the Iran captain?

lol at the sprint to ensure that was a marginal fk
