BakerpowIt was a great strike but bad defending for not clearing the ball very well
BakerpowI mean yah he dove but it mexico has played so poorly that they don't deserve to win this game. The dutch have actually played well and created chances... Mexico is just pissing it away
theBearJewHow was the first goal weak?? that was an executed corner with a great strike.
*SID*You guys are forgetting there was an ACTUAL penalty in the beginning of the match on robben.
OlimarGood call by the ref. Good acting by Robben.
OlimarI agreed with that call 100%
Selling penalties by flopping is part of soccer. We all know that. The ref cant watch a replay of the penalty 5 times before making his decision like we are able to as viewers. When you all originally saw the penalty in the box, you all though it was for sure a penalty. But then as you watch it 3 more times, you can see that he was barley touched.

WattsExcept for the last 20 minutes, I thought the game was pretty even. It's not like the Dutch were creating very many chances until the very end of the game.
Mexico's defending was terrible. How do you leave two guys wide open at the top of the box on a corner when you're 5 minutes away from winning the game?
I don't like Mexico by any means as a U.S. fan, but it's impossible to get behind a team beating them like that.
brotoHolland deserved to go on, but not like that. It is so frustrating to soccer fans who want to want to rid their sport of the ridicule brought on my diving when something like that happens.
Heartbreaker for mexico. And a fucking blooter of a strike from sneidjer. Yeah, a relatively easy goal but it was still a nice strike.

Al.CaponeSpeaking on the goal you really can't blame Mexico as they were probably expecting Huntelaar at 6 foot 1 too try and put it in the back of the net.
WattsSo, what, any time a team with a player over 6 feet tall has a corner, you should have 4 guys mark him, and nobody mark the player(s) waiting at the top of the box to put away any rebounds? I guess if you look at it that way, yeah, you're right, there's absolutely nothing Mexico could have done.
Ski_the_east01ahhh the pathetic netherlands fans...can't even call a spade a spade
You act like you're arguing against ardent Mexican supporters. Most of the member on here hate the mexican team, bein U.S. fans and all
Robben is a shitstain on the underwear that is a legitimate attempt to bring some dignity to the sport of soccer
Bakerpowit's going to be close and iv just liked this kid for a while and he is finally getting world recognition. i know he is a monaco star for now, wenger was at the game so i can hope;)
i agree that messi is pretty much his teams only option so for them to go far he is going to get goals. muller not so much although he always seems to be in the right place at the right time.
i personally want klose to get 16 next game, i never really like ronaldo and would love to see klose pass him.
theBearJewLast comment about the commentators, when the Netherlands have the ball they just talo about Mexico, when Mexico has it, they tell you wants going on in the game.
I wanna see the Netherlands win so I dont have to hear this guy again.
ChrisMcCandlessWant to get a German kit, but I can't justify the $90 price tag. Anyone know where you can get a good quality knock off? Haven't had any luck finding any.
ChunterAs much as I like Rodriguez and Arsenal, why the fuck would Arsenal sign him? We have too many midfielders as is and he certainly can't be converted into a ST or CDM where we could actually use him.
God I hope this is the case. I can't stand the both of them, they are god awful.

That link has a bunch of vendors that sell knockoffs from China and Taiwan. They take like two weeks to get to the US but for $20 I wasn't complaining. You just gotta make sure to look up specific buyers and reviews on youtube to make sure you buy from a quality vendor. Some vendors screen-print everything and others will have everything stitched. I bought my German jersey from the vendor in the description of this video and I can't complain at all. 3 months and no wear seen at all.

Al.CaponeDidn't really mean it like that. I'm just saying Huntelaar could have probably put that header on goal and really Mexico just left Sneijder, was that stupid? Yes but it's not like everyone dropped what they were doing and went straight to Huntelaar. But yeah there was nothing they could have done Sneijder's shot was perfectly placed so no need for the sarcasm

BakerpowHoping Joe Campbell does well. Would love to see him get a goal.
Sobrietywow that white guy kicked the ball really hard
WattsFuck Joel Campbell:

The most pathetic thing in sports I've ever watched live. What a disgraceful player and human being. I feel awful for his parents, who have to live knowing they gave birth to such an unbelievable coward.

Bakerpowjeeez a little harsh maybe? you do realize this shit happens all over the world? in every league? im not saying i dont fucking hate it but cmon, "I feel awful for his parents" damn. until fifa does something about it people will continue with that shit. just watch his skill. yah that is one of the worst dives iv ever seen. you all seem to have strong feelings against diving but dont really realize nothing is being done about it so just accept the fact it's going to keep happening until fines are given out/cards. i dont understand why people keep bitching about diving.
i hate it just as much you, it degrades the game and makes fotball look silly. but we just have to live with it for now...
WattsDiving happens, but stuff like this, where you maybe accidentally get your toe stepped on a tiny bit then roll on the ground like you've been mauled and refuse to let the player help you back up and get him a yellow card, rarely every happens. Don't give a rats ass about a player's skill if they do stuff like this. Fuck him.
Trust me, I realize nothing is being done. Not sure why you think people are oblivious to that. What a stupid fucking argument. Replace "diving" with, say, "school shootings" and you'll see what I mean: "you all seem to have strong feelings against school shootings but dont really realize nothing is being done about it so just accept the fact it's going to keep happening until fines are given out. i dont understand why people keep bitching about school shootings."
Just because nothing is being done about something you don't like doesn't mean you should just sit there quietly and accept it.
ChrisMcCandlessThis post is almost as dramatic as that dive.
Bakerpowequally as stupid of an argument. we are not talking about people being murdered in cold blood. jesus.
ChrisMcCandlessThe constant begging for cards and penalties is almost as bad the diving.
