Watching the dutch game, thought stuff it once every four years, and I don't have anything major today. It is going to be a major struggle thoughWhat are you doing up now?

This Netherlands team isn't very good is it?
And Spain seem to have regressed a bit since 2012/2010.

Yeah, might the difference maker this tournament because he picked Spain over Brazil
The way he put his leg even if Vlaar doesn't touch him, he's down. Costa is useful cnut.
Send in Clasie instead of Guzman. But how obvious it is that Holland need Strootman.
It has to start. So embarrassing for the sport.
De Guzman is the biggest liability in this game and that's saying something with De Jong on the pitch too.
And not only that, but when he discovers that that isn't enough for him to fall, he does a pretty obvious flop. Clear dive. I thought it was one to begin with, but I had to see a replay a few times to be sure.You can't understand why there's a discussion? Well therein lies the issue.
It appears to me Costa extended his leg and stepped on the defender's trailing leg. I believe that warrants a discussion.
De Guzman should have been given the second yellow.
spain are playing sexy football
In all fairness, thats an absolutely fantastic dive from Costa
Going by Kevin's logic he's probably Spanish
The Dutch do not like good imo. Someone is going to get sent off for them as well.
He'll do well at Chelsea.In all fairness, thats an absolutely fantastic dive from Costa
But that's stupid showing all the goals, they should show only the ones we aren't sure.
It look like Honduras wearing netherlands shirts.
better than that twat Townsend on ITVI'm sure I'm going to be on my own here but I quite like Lawrenson.....
His mentality slots right in into Spain's overall way of play it seemsIn all fairness, thats an absolutely fantastic dive from Costa
It's hard to believe the Dutch were in the final just 4 years ago given the starting line up here. They'll do well to get out the group ahead of Chile.
How have you come to that conclusion? They actually LOST their first game of the 2010 WC.
yup it was very crafty and well performedIn all fairness, thats an absolutely fantastic dive from Costa
Holland have been pretty poor so far.
Why is RVP not up top?

That's what I've been thinking hahaha.
I remember this fat ginger from my youth team constantly doing the worst dives and we'd all cringe when the ref actually gave us freekicks!
Spain are a bunch of cnuts.
De Vrij isnt great.
Why is neither team wearing 'home' colours when there would quite clearly be no clash?
Yeah, it's awful. Both live services I quickly checked, as well as the commentators, thought it was a clear penalty. I assume the TV crew think so too, because there haven't been any new replays. I hope this doesn't just blow over.In all fairness, thats an absolutely fantastic dive from Costa
Blind isn't good enough on the ball or quick enough to be a fullback.
The Norwegian commentators on NRK are truly terrible. Sounds like they are talking to a bunch of 10-year olds.
Also, Costa is a cnut. Was not a penalty.

I told yoi. Holland having a shit generation. And you still dream of Blind or Clasie. Lulz.
Strootman is no great shakes either but would improve us because our midfield is horrendous.

Neither team are currently playing at home.
Rooney isn't fat, he has big bones.That's what I've been thinking hahaha.

LvG doesn't seem to have many good players to chose from. Long time since you could say the England squad looks stronger than the Ditch squad.
Both Robben and RVP have came very, very close to beat the Spanish offside trap. Won't be surprised to see Holland getting another one on one chance.
oh man, that would have been sweet
Spain are looking shit hot
Spain are looking shit hot
What a waste
Many people wouldn't find that funny, but I like it.
My oh my that pass
