OT: World Cup

[CalamityX11]

my guess is that the dallas cowboy stadium (AKA the billion dollar playpen) would probably get to host the final game

yeah that may be the winner.... I would prefer a more open to the outside stadium but I can see Dallas being the finals host.

Mexico with a well deserved 1-0 victory (actually they should be leading Group A based on goal differential over Brazil at this point)

 

[sherbert1421]

I hope Mexico goes deep just so we can keep watching Miguel Herrera

That was a nice appetizer for Spain - Holland coming up at the top of the clock...

I'm gonna miss the first half of Spain/Netherlands.

Nice flop in the box and Spain awarded a spot kick which they convert.

There was slight contact I believe, but in my opinion, not enough to warrant a penalty kick.

 

[esls79]

If it was only slight contact, then De Jong didn't do it as he usually goes all out with the martial arts.

not a good start for the officials this go around..

Of course, the Canadian Dutcher De Guzman gets the first yellow of the game...

RVP with an absolute stunner and we're tied. What a goal (headed home a great cross).

/That could be goal of the tournament

Robben!! Dutch lead 2-1

Floppy bird

 

[dash]

Diego Costa headbutts Martins Indy, but the ref missed it (or if he saw it, all he did was give a stern talking to both players)

 

[dash]

Floppy bird

Yeah, Martins Indy made a meal of that one - Still, the headbutt wasn't necessary.

 

[esls79]

Robben!! Dutch lead 2-1

With his left foot or his other left foot?

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Holy bananas.
