dutch have to get van bommel off the pitch. he is a walking red card today.

webb getting a little carried away with the yellows. good grief.

Post #564 » by **fatlever** » Sun Jul 11, 2010 7:47 pm

with all these yellows, you can bet both teams will be diving all over the pitch the last 30 mins hoping to bail webb into giving a red. this is going to get ugly i think.

pedro off, no torres. ouch.

Robben with the opportunity of the match and pooped in the basket.

van bommel and de jong are two of the biggest hacks this side of rico clark.

My boy Iniesta is getting into the mix. I'm loving it!

Post #573 » by **fatlever** » Sun Jul 11, 2010 8:09 pm

my boy sneijder with the game saving tackle in the box. who would have thunk it?

Post #574 » by **fatlever** » Sun Jul 11, 2010 8:11 pm

you have to love seeing the two midget midfielders mixing it up in the box.

robben **** his pants again. was fouled though.

Post #575 » by **fatlever** » Sun Jul 11, 2010 8:12 pm

both teams very deserving at this point.

This game today is why I could never be a full time soccer fan.

This game is so freaking boring.

Someone do something exciting before my eyes start bleeding.

I miss Germany.

Robben misses another gimmie then chases the ref down. This is really starting to get entertaining. I'm just waiting for the game to end so I can watch the Royal Rumble!

And out comes Cesc

i cant help but thing that the dutch would have been better off with Ruud van Nistelrooy at stricker over van persie. persie has been crap all wc.

blame it on spain. im telling you, they are the most boring team to watch in the wc, especially when they play a quality team. im just not a fan of the spain/barcelona style of play. hell, at least barca has messi to keep me excited. its not that i dont respect their style and respect their players, but the slow build up, sideways passing and searching thru balls is painful to watch when playing against a quality team. i prefer teams that attack with wingers, crosses and fast paced counter attacks. but hey, thats just me.
