Belgium are just a team of individuals by the looks of it, they're all fantastic players they just don't seem to have any cohesion whatsoever. They'll get trampled at this rate against anyone outside their group.

Not expecting anything to go in our favour against the Oranje this evening, we'll give it our best shot all the same.

Australia vs Netherlands tonight. Hooboy...

Ochoa has become everyone's new favourite thing on the interwebs now, particularly on twitter.


This guy is a free agent, and we at Arsenal need a GK with Fabianski having left for Swansea. PUT 2 AND 2 TOGETHER GAZIDIS.

lmao

i seriously fucking hope that the guy gets picked up by a big club. a showing like this warrants it.

My god that was an insane goal by Australia.

What happened to the Dutch in the first half? I can understand letting us have the ball in order to counter, as they did for the first goal, but they seemed completely out of character.

That goal by Cahill will be immortalised regardless of the result, what an effort on his weaker foot.

Someone had better silence me before I completely lose my wits. C'MON AUSSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

so my dad was 100% right with his assumption that the netherlands won't keep up after the 5-1 win over spain.

probably a lot of taking the opponent not serious. 2-1 australia, and australia plays leagues above the netherlands.

gladi's reaction will be fun.

I swear to god if they win this match looool EDIT: too soon

Hmmph. van Traitor strikes again. This is a pulsating game, bloody hell.

netherlands so mean.

So mean

Match went as expected for me. The Defense is shit. But Australia didn't play well either, it's just that NL played like shit that they were able to get the goals. Next to that, the penalty was disgusting. He was just looking for it, shot the ball in blindness and touchéd the wrist of Janmaat. Not cool. Next to that, a whole whole whole lot of 50/50 decisions went in favor of Australia. Again, uncool. That lakey? lackey? should've gotten yellow for his dive as well.

Our man of the match was Nigel de Jong, that's when you know you played a bad match. Thank god for Depay with his assist and goal. Great player. I fucking love that guy.

edit: yeah, a bit harsh. Autralia played good, I'm going to admit that, but they simply lack quality to get further. Ref still didn't do it well if you ask me. Too many decisions went in favor of Australia.

Oh come off it man, your lot didn't play at their best but you can't deny that we were great. We made the most of their shortcomings and played some honourable football. To say we didn't play well is downright daft and frankly unsportsmanlike. The penalty was a blatant handball, it's not your usual deflection off the elbow or arm; it was right on his hand and that effectively means a penalty regardless of his intention. Leckie should've gotten a yellow? What about Robben throwing himself to the ground on the other side of the pitch? Open your eyes, just because the bigger side who are clear favourites don't get the favouritism of the ref apparently he's completely biased towards the other team. Utter horse bollocks.

That aside, it was a great game to watch and enjoy. The Dutch looked more like a team of stars than anything else, they need to focus on functioning as a unit instead of relying on pure brilliance from their top players to carry them through. gg and g'night.

Just got out of the stadium. Everything was fucking amazing.

Read the edit. First emotional post, I'm sure you can understand. I could've just erased it all but I decided to keep it.

Honourable? You can't use that word simply because you played a decent to good match. Cahill was disgusting with his two fouls on Martins Indi. The poor lad is in the hospital now with a concussion. Before that he blatantly stepped on his achilles heel as well. That's not honourable. His goal was of world class, nobody can deny that. I myself cheered to that goal. But the fouls were disgusting.

Yes it was a handball. But he completely searched for it. He almost crossed the backline, that's how long he took with his weird shot from an impossible angle. He got completely lucky and hit a wrist. It's what he looked for. That's, again, not honourable play. I don't want to sound like a cunt towards Australia, they played well, but not honourable. Same deal with the Pepe 'headbutt' on müller. Müller needs to stop being a little bitch. Seconds before the incident, he got a pinky finger in his face and cried like his skull just got bashed in. No wonder Pepe went towards him. Sure, what Pepe did was wrong, but so was that what Müller did. It's disgusting to cry murder and blood if a pinky hits you. And yes that counts for every side, so going in and saying ''YES BUT THE OTHER TEAM'' is irrelevant and next to that a fallacy.

I never said he's completely biased. Open your eyes as well mate. I said the 50/50 decisions mostely went in favor of Australia. That's not something to argue about, it's a cold truth. A lot of the 'well you could blow the whistle for this' moments went in favor of Australia. If NL got 'm, ref would either play on or even give the free kick to Australia. It became enervating to watch. A lot of the comments on main news sites/twitter etc. are not about the ref being bad, but about the ref simply not being fair in the small decisions. Inconcistency brings annoyance.

1-0 quien te conoce España

bye bye spain

Oh Spain...



I just hope we don't follow their steps like on the 1st fixture.

rip in peace spain

even straya put up more of a fight against chile than spain

I knew it. Spain is not like in 2010.

Now it's just a matter of who comes out first and second

so one of the opponents germany shits their pants before is out now.

if only england had won against italy :/

everything is going exactly like how I wanted it to be

EXCEPT URUGUAY, WHY DID YOU HAVE TO LOSE AGAINST COSTA RICA ;_;

Finally, after 2 consecutive competitions, it won't be Spain's fault we get eliminated.

haha spain eliminated

Cameroon must be the worst team this world cup, completely lost since the 1st match. Now Song getting himself sent off, cmon at least Pepe held himself back on his headbutt, Song just hit a guy for no reason hahaha

wouldn#t have thought that anyone could top pepe in stupidity, but then song happened!

Seems to be some kind of curse that the previous World Cup winner gets eliminated in groups.

There is Why World cup is exciting
In World cup appears everything

Portugal still on the run.....

Now if Song was still at Arsenal...ah never mind who cares. Good for him.

URU-ENG is the game of the day surely, though COL-CIV comes close. Should be an enthralling game, C'MON THREE LIONS.

Colombia/Cote d'Ivoire being a terribly boring game tho :c


lol
