Netherlands played pretty well, so many chances that it should have been more then 2 goals.
Lol at the last minute awarded penalty to Slovakia and unnecessary yellow to the keeper. There was no point in that :p

Chile just never really had a chance in that game.

So guys, thoughts on the matchup between ARG vs GER?

Germany is looking a lot weaker then 2006, but they got a pretty good defense, while Argentina's defense is not that good. I think first goal is going to win the match.

Netherlands was runner up twice in '74 and '78 while Uruguay won the first one in '30 and the major upset in '50 against Brazil in Brazil.

Go Uruguay!
I know, I sorta meant that as in more modern terms. Because frankly most people right now think of Germany, Brazil, France and Italy (although both were eliminated), as the favorites to win any WC. If we have previously amazing teams play in the finals that would help the general population to stop being so closed minded about who has the ability to win.
I will be ecstatic if Brazil or Germany don't win :)

I expect Spain to starve Portugal of the ball.

Argentina vs Germany can go either way, same with Uruguay vs Ghana. I expect Brazil to beat Holland.

Aside from this, I also won't be surprised if Ronaldo "falls" again every time someone barely touches him.

I'm torn of the Japan/Paraguay game today. I want Japan to move on but also for another south american team to move. Ah, this sucks. Go both teams! :p

Both teams are playing pretty good. It's going to end in Penalty shots tbh.

Lol @ us 3 editing.

It was a really good game, even though it ended in penalties.
Both team's defense was really top notch. Japan's offense has been better though.

Overall a good game, I hope the same from Spain vs Portugal.

well obviously. The main goal for both those teams for this game was to try to get Top 8 for the first time at the world cup.

That being said, I hot paraguay gets 8-0'd. >:UUUUUUUUU

I don't mind Japan losing at all. Paraguay is and has always been a better team than them. Tougher competition and much more consistent. It makes more sense for them to in quarters than for Japan, no offense to ppl who root for Japan.

Poor Japan :ohwell:
If the coach can keep a consistent team I'm sure they can make it to te semis next time.
Now I need to watch the game since I couldn't this morning (yay for dvr!).


I want Spain to win over portugal only because of Casillas, he's just great imo, haha.

Btw, tery, the vuvuzela chart made my day :laugh:

Coentrao is that dude.

Casillas hasn't impressed me this tournament as usual. Reina is better imo.
