And Red you predicted what? That holland would win by an own-goal + the worst calls ever. You needed all the help you can get...I think you mean your prayers were answered.

I think someone got paid, big time.

Bitter much? have you ever played the game or watched a match before today? a goal is a goal, end discussion. The Brazilians came out strong, but were played off the pitch in the 2nd half where it counts. They left one of the best Brazilian midfielders of all time off the roster and played BORING football, its simply that easy. The better team won, and yes, I predicted Holland would make the final before the cup began, go back a few threads. I play the game, been a fan of the game and know the game better than most englishmen, DO NOT get into a pissing match with me bud.

Like I said, Melo should never play again. He's worth **** if he's not playing. He was selfish. Your worth nothing on the bench.

Don’t ******* talk to me about playing this game when I was raised with Portuguese and Brazilian blood in me and played before I can remember. I have also gone youth-national in 4 different sports. (near 30 now and just play rec) So, I know thing or two. I am the one trying to embrace tech to be brought into the game when my whole family/friends think in that antiquated state of mind, with the belief of drama/theatrics being ruined if introduced. I tell you right now, the more other sports grow in popularity around the world the less Soccer will be taken seriously if they don’t start enforcing the rules a bit more. There would still be plenty of drama and theatrics.

You’re just riding your high horse right now, but there were plenty of calls given to Holland that were uncalled for...It’s demoralizing and hurts the performance of the team. Same can be said for the goal robbed from England. They would have played a lot harder being down 1 goal compared to 2.

lmfao, of Portuguese and Brazilian blood huh? must be tearing at your soul that both of your teams flopped

I was born of German and Spanish parents, both of mine are still in, ZING.

Dont justify your knowledge of the game to me buddy, I know a world cup fanboy when I see one, you know, the kind that only watches the sport when the biggest tournament in the world begins...

The only knowledge you have of this world cup is what you watch on ESPN, every point you make were all the major headlines. C'mon man really?

LMAO! We watch every game from SAT both at home and here at work on either Spanish or Brazilian channels, so cut the tough-guy act. I know your kind too, the equivelent of a magazine racer. Cruzeiro for Brasil and Benfica for Portugal. I dont justify, I tell you how it is. But thanks for the ESPN recap, LOL! Fool.

Since the time of King Tut and the Crusades.

[Red370]

oh yeah, how the eff did poor officiating decide this game? the calls were all spot on for both sides. And Melo is considered one of the best defensive midfielders in the game now, c'mon man, think before you post. Someone got paid? this isnt American football.

I hope someone knocks 'dona the F out. Germany is no joke and they would also have to beat the team that was supposed to be the strongest, Spain.

Lets be honest here... its not like Holland played very well either. They lost 3 1 vs 1 with the goalie, but Brasil was just not there today.

true for the 1st half yes, Ooijer made some questionable decisions from time to time, but Heitinga, Van der Weil played excellent. Ooijer was only in the game because of an injury to Mathijson, he hasnt played a minute of the cup, so he needed to shake the cobwebs off. C'mon guys, you all know that Holland deservedly won this game..
