Go Netherlands!! Just 'cause I visited there in May and their coffeeshops are wonderful.
Great to try the Volcano and der Verdampfer while there.
Missing Amsterdam

WHY GOD WHY ???

Krul was awesome against cr, wtf...

 

[VaporsVaporizer]

I know , couldn't understand why they didn't put Krul in again

 

[Madcap79]

Ahahahahahahaha. Robben couldn't flop his way to a goal. Bye bye Holland!

 

[Radio]

Got up so early yesterday just to watch Brazil get destroyed. How heartbreaking for the poor guys
Also I lost $20 on that game.. haha

 

[grokit]

Ahahahahahahaha. Robben couldn't flop his way to a goal. Bye bye Holland!

We know you hate the guy but to be fair he made his goal in the shootout, which is where the game was decided. So his strategic within the rules gymnastics didn't have any effect one way or the other!

 

[Madcap79]

You're right. I get too passionate about some things. He just rubs me the wrong way for some reason.

 

[lwien]

The ball control in this game is just insane........These two teams obviously belong to be where they are now.

 

[Seren]

Come on Argentina!

 

[tuk]

What an incredible goal!

 

[Madcap79]

Congrats Germany!

 

[steiner666]

That was just about the most beautiful goal i've ever seen! perfect! WOOOOOOO!
That was a VERY intense game, 2 very good teams, easily could have gone either way

 

[VaporsVaporizer]

Sepp Blatter, sounds like an acid trip to me.

 

[RUDE BOY]

My God the balls from 2006 and 2010 sucked so much if the wind was blowing, Never understood why they don't stick to a some kind of standard design for international play.

Nice avatar.

 

[Madcap79]

[SSVUN~YAH]

Anybody watching Juve v Barca besides me????

Great game. Neymar's goal at the end made me $50.

But this is the World Cup thread, so who plans on following the Ladies? Starts today, and the US has it's first match on Monday against some English prison colony I've never heard of. Starts at 7:30 ET.

Juve did itself proud but this Barça is tough.

I'll be following the World Cup, and watching when I can!

 

[ctxgooner]

Im watching the opener.....canada v china
Been watching some of the u-20 cup games also.....the us has made it to the knockout stage and of course argentina are fun to watch....

 

[GetLeft]

Jeez, didn't think I'd enjoy the women's soccer so much! Watched 2 games last night. The game moves more slowly so you can appreciate how things develop and see why the "little" things, like fighting your ass off at the end line to win a corner, are great feats of atheleticsm.

USA looks tough. Japan does too: fast and fit and finely tuned, though they couldn't score other than from the spot.

Looking forward to lots of SWV (soccer while vaped) in the coming weeks!

I just don't think I can get on with world cup soccer anymore. Too many bad politics and corruption, it is like the Olympics...
