Kinda wanted Brazil to score to take it to extra time, but they just fell apart. They were behind and down to 10 men, rarely have they ever been in that situation. Panicked so bad, Dunga is going to get even more of a bashing from the media then he already has.

All goals came from defensive errors imo, poor Dutch positioning gifted Brazil their goal. Brazilian defender and keeper colliding together, knocking both out of position allowing the ball to glide into the net, the seemingly little defending/marking at the corner allowing for Dutch 2nd goal.

But still congrats to Netherland, definitely did not see this coming, what with Brazil's complete domination of the 1st half.

that last minute goal attempt by netherlands where it was 3 vs the goalkeeper and they messed it up was pretty pro, you couldnt even teach players to do that

lol GoldShadow I was waiting for that.

Fact is Brazil controlled the first half and then just exploded. Holland just had to stick the ball in the box and they were going to score, they should've scored a bucketload when Brazil opened up as they chased the game. Their lack of clinical finishing might punish them later on.

It was a gift.

How Van Bommel didn't get booked someone tell me.

Robben is scum, did I mention that?

Holland isn't Brazil. We don't give a flying **** how we win, we beat Brazil, which is enough.

The first Ducth goal was illegal! M. Bastos didn't commit that foul. The ref is stupid.

Lmao that pic wow.

Didn't have to do much, that's pretty bull****, it's not like it was just a gift and Holland didn't have to do anything to get from 0-1 to 2-1.

Not until the red card was given, Holland had to play their best. When it was 10 v 11 everything became so much more relaxed.

They delivered two balls in the box. First ball Cesar decided to try and knock out Melo and not the ball. Second one everyone in a blue shirt was spectating. That's all Holland had to do, whip two balls in the box.

Anyway, well done on getting through.

I love Ronaldinho but he's going to be like 55 when the next World Cup rolls around, and then it might be too late.

Note: this was hyperbole

There goes my $20.

I hope Germany doesn't win.

I'm rooting for Argentina now. They have a solid team this year.

It'd be nice if Ghana won. Have an African team in the Semis.

I'm happy that my beloved Holland team won today tho. Win like a champ, lose like a champ. No need for Brazilians to be salty.

I would felt worse for Ghana if they showed a little more sportsmanship. (i.e. not falling on the ground and crying)

Man, that was suuuuuch a dirty win. lol

Dude, you're representing your *country* in the *World Cup.* The only other international competition is the Olympics. The failure is more than losing the NBA finals, or the Superbowl. The world is watching. And you may not be on the team in four years. I respect any man that has the ability to cry after losing a significant game like this.


But for real. ****, they did Africa dirty. haha

He did what I would've done in the same situation. If one wouldn't have done that you would be stuck wondering what would have happend if you did. No regrets! Good game.
