that Silva miss at the end of first half was costly. Spain were on top and controlling the game. one counter attack later the Dutch were level.
many spain players are done at this level. Casillas was horrible and was at fault for atleast 3 of the goals, Alonso and Xavi don't have the legs anymore and i don't see the point of Costa who was atrocious and largely unproven at this level. The less said about Torres is better. Looking very bleak for them at this moment
Englands best showing @ this stage in a long while.
Forza Azurri..I trust Prandelli and expect us to go far..Bring it on !!
Italy fanboy'ism inherited from dad.Been supporting them since '94.
Supported Holland when DB10 and later RVP were playing..Right now they're probably my last team :mad:
No of goals scored after 10 games - 34
Last season same time, only 16.
Darmian :thumbsup: top fullback and gave England nightmare all game long.
Argies still look suspect defensively and it wasn't a good performance at all, looked better when Gago and Higuain came on. classic Messi goal.

Tonight, I Wilshere with you a story about footballers, but it may get a little Messi. Kanu see what I Didier? If not, you should leave, the Torres open. But don't Pique fight with me. Wellbeck to my story, I don't have a Kalou what I was about to say anymore, so I'm in my room, Neymar mirror, checking myself out mirror like Vain Rooney. It might Costa-lot to buy wax so I want to shave my hair but you Arshavin it with me k? By the way, today I walked so much, Suarez-ted my legs and the more you read this De Gea I sound. But it don't Mata what you think. But if you have a good Hart, you will give me an Oscar for this. Anyway, I Gotze Bale now, thank you for keeping me, Kompany. I'm gonna have some tea and Busquets now.
P.S - Don't be Robben this joke ok? Copyright.
Maestro strikes
Though I had to be up before 4am today, I did not regret watching the Brazil match. For me, the highlight was the second goal by Neymar from the connoiseur's point of view. Got the ball, a host of defenders in front of him, obvious choice is to go for the second (far) post - so thought everyone, including the goalie, you and I. What did Neymar do ? Even as the goalie was moving to cover the vacant goal, he ignored the second post and threaded the ball through the defenders' legs, into the near one. PURE GENIUS.
FIFA has banned Uruguay striker Luis Suarez from all football activities for four months for biting an opponent at the World Cup, ruling him out of the rest of the tournament and the start of the upcoming Premier League season.
The ban also covers Uruguay's next nine international games, which goes beyond the next four months and rules him out of next year's Copa America. FIFA also fined the Liverpool striker 100,000 Swiss francs ($112,000).
The ban is effective immediately, meaning Suarez will miss Uruguay's round-of-16 game against Colombia on Saturday.

Is this THE goal of the World Cup?
Its a sad inditement that the only version available on Youtube is this one – filmed through a smartphone from what is a ridiculously old TV – why FIFA doesn’t allow users to share the goal on youtube and across social media is beyond me, but apparently goes against the territorial TV rights auction. If ever a moment deserved to be captured and shared on YouTube it is this one, rather than some rubbish kitten!
His control and finish are simply sublime!

Plenty of fake acts and bad refreeing. And it changes the results completely. How you guys manage yourself in being true to this sport ??
Why not going for second level of refereeing where a panel of referees analysing from replays and confirm especially on the acts happening within D?
Same as Suarez bite case - he should have been shown the red card and with 10 men, the game may have ended differently.
Neymar mind, life goes on. I am sure there’s a Silva lining. But I am a-Fred I cannot give you a Hulk because we Alves knew it was no Oscar performance. Dante grumble if the Brazil FA cuts your Scolari.
