My MoM would be Oscar and runner up for Olic. Both played so well and the only difference between those two was that ones effort came out with the better result.
Vish024
Oscar was fantastic throughout the game, very good work rate, attracted opposition players like a magnet, good vision and positioning. He was playing on the right but for some reason looked like he was everywhere. Olic did extremely well considering his age, no idea how someone of 34 years of age manages to bomb down the left wing constantly, he must've lost some serious body-weight through all that sweat.

That penalty call was terrible though. Not like it ended up mattering, but still.



EDIT: Fred is also appealing for a penalty at the same time...

Fred did absolutely nothing except that dive lol


For the other topic, I can't understand Barcelonas transfer policy. After all those nagging, boy-must-come-home, and DNA banters, they spat him out. I don't even. Anyway, I welcome him and wish him to be the key player for our midfield we were weak on.

That image of Fabregas in a Chelsea shirt is quite possibly the most disgusting thing I have ever seen. This is particularly dangerous for our status and image considering the circumstances, if Cesc and Chelsea go on to win titles and we don't deliver with our current crop of players it'll be blamed almost entirely upon the decision to reject Cesc. I just hope that people come to their senses eventually and realise that he would've been a hindrance more than anything else in the long run for the squad and its players.

That aside, C'MON 'STRAYA. LET'S GIVE IT TO THEM LATIN CUNTS! If we come away with a draw, I'll be over the moon.

Also Fabregas has officially signed for Chelsea.
Poor Arsenal :'(

It's odd that Arsenal didn't go for Fabregas. Cazorla is likely to leave for Atletico Madrid, so why not get Fabregas?

I am damn sure at least one of those goals wasn't offside. The first half should have ended 1-0 for Mexico

Oh well, at least they scored. Mexico ought to win this match
JonnyThatJonny
The refereeing has been awful so far... really poor decisions on both matches. Glad Mexico got the win even with those bad calls, well deserved. Horrible match from Cameroon, expected more from them.

Also that chincharito miss near the end was hilarious, the portuguese commentator had just finished saying how much the player said he wanted to start on every world cup match, he starts playing and this happens.
Tanzklaue
well that was just dumb from the netherlands.
yeahyeahyeahhh
2 PK so far that shouldn't have been PKs. Lol good thing they can review these things.
Glass

Vish024
Fuck me, I thought the Dutch'd be alright but did not expect this brilliance. Gladi will need a new pair of testes after this.

That Robben goal, honestly the moment he approached Casillas with the ball I was thinking "He's not...he's not....he's bloody not! Bloody hell!"

More seriously, we're facing the Dutch after Chile.
bmin11

I knew it was a goal at that point. Casillas had been doing so poorly the entire game him stopping that play would've been above any expectations.

Netherlands played damn well but goddamn, Spain was horrible. not even gg
Kanye West
Robben is a beast, beautiful
Tanzklaue
maybe we send our suck to spain.

anyway, netherlands are scary.
GladiOol
guys, time to go home. it's all ogre. it's our world cup.
Glass
Missing a literal open goal.

Only Torres.

I guess I should start reading those Gladi's posts about unknown Dutch players from now on.
GladiOol
that first van persie goal though, flying like an elegant swan towards the ball and then land like a jet having engine problems. nonetheless, insane goal.

you don't do dive headers to look beautiful though :P

The dutch just went from kinda forgotten into one of the favorites. There can be no better boost than trashing the champions, that Robben-VanPersie-Sneijder trio can change any game in their favor if it's their day.

On the other hand, Spain looks senile. They were being their usual self but after the turnaround they went down like a house of cards.
KRZY
Out of 77,000 people who correctly bet on Mexico 1-0 Cameroon at some betting site in Korea, only 10 people correctly bet on Netherlands 5-1 Spain to claim 30000x of their bets.

Impressive stuff..

Crazy, crazy game. Robben and Van Persie my God. There are people still thinking that Robben is overrated.
Cherry Blossom
Robben will be the best player of the world cup. I'm pretty sure.

Alright Aus-Chile kicking off, C'MON SOCCEROOS.
Mismagius
