I know this isn't exactly the most exciting match of the tournament, but they don't need a W to win the group, so you can't blame 'em. A tie would suffice.

Had de Vrij not been there, de Jong would've scored an own goal.

Spain up 3-0.

"Coyt" has the cramps. No wonder if a natural CF plays fullback.

One of NL/Croatia/Mexico/Costa Rica/Ivory Coast will be in the Semi Finals.

Wow.

sentiment got lost since they beat spain but chile is easily the most annoying team in this cup. all the crying, flopping and cockiness remind me of barcelona when they were good.

Croatia already made the semifinals in 98

That team was better though. Modric, Rakitic and Mandzukic are good but they're no Boban, Prosinecki and Suker.

BTW, I think the ref did a great job in this one. First WC game for him and a pretty heated atmosphere, not easy at all.

Memphis makes it 2-0. Great goal.

Great pass by De Jong. Great run and pass by Robben.

Great counter!
