Hey I'm right there with you. I want to see that cup here in Holland.

 

[jett]

No way Germany can stop argentina

Argentina is too uneven. Germany is gonna tear them a new one.

I dont know who you are but I'm going to party with you. So pumped

 

[Kittonwy]

The only things the Dutch will be destroying will be the hopes and dreams of their supporters. :lol

This.

 

[skybaby]

Fuck you Netherlands I want you to win this but your good teams keep crossing paths with Brazil :lol

 

[Binabik15]

I just want Brazil to loose. Sorry, but a 6th title AND the cup in 2014? Yeah, no. They´ll get their 6th win next time at home, let the others celebrate this time D:

Sadly, I have to agree.

Still gonna binge drink on friday though, already text messaged my boss to take the last two hours off

Still using the same strat as the opposing team who does it a lot better isn't really a sound gameplan. If we win it'll be because we have more quality player rather then having a better tactics.

 

[J Tourettes]

Argentina is too uneven. Germany is gonna tear them a new one.

I hope to fuck that this is true.

 

[Sadist]

Still if we would lose against Brasil, no shame there. But I want to win so bad...

 

[[Nintex]]

Hey I'm right there with you. I want to see that cup here in Holland.

Yep, we'll face Germany in the finals and beat them and it will be glorious.

they won 94 and 02, letting others enjoy 98 and 06. they can't let others win twice in a row.

 

[Battersea Power Station]

I am 100% sure Best Guay will Eat Japan up.

I'd wager a week-long ban on this, if you or anyone else is up for it. Japan is gonna come out blazing.

Ghana should get it.

 

[Green Biker Dude]

I'd wager a week-long bet on this. Japan is gonna come out blazing.

i accept that bet. there is no way paraguay loses to japan imo

You guys are our only hope against Brasil .. PLEASE WIN THIS THING

well just the match not the WHOLE thing

 

[Sadist]

Can't imagine what would happen here at the Netherlands/German border just a about a km away :lol

 

[[Nintex]]

Flood the land, run for the hills. Us stuck here at the coast will drown but it'll be worth it.

 

[confuziz]

hehe here too :lol

 

[Dresden]

World War 3 is no joking matter.

 

[Hootie]

I'm rooting for the Netherlands since the US lost, but I'm not exactly liking their chances against Brazil. :lol

I´ll just hide in France or Switzerland if shit goes down

 

[Battersea Power Station]

Just to be clear I meant "week-long ban." I'm typing on a (slow) phone. Any mod wanna mark me and GBD down for the bet?

I'm still getting over the US loss, so I could use a reason for some passion

 

[Funky Papa]

Germany-Holland would probably result in caravan drive-by action.

If i remember right, ban bets aren't accepted anymore...
Kudos for the Japanese support!

JAPAAAAAAAAN!

 

[Always-honest]

This.

wrong. now we get to see what holland does against teams that can actually do more than stand in front of their own goal.

This is the way to deal with those kind of defending teams. Calculated and patient.
Wait for oportunities and try not to take a goal. They did this excellent.

When a team wants to play attractive and forward football, holland is at its best.
These guys want nothing more than to show what they actually can do.

 

[StopMakingSense]

Looking forward to the replay of the fantastic Brazil - Netherlands game in the '98 Semis. With a different result, of course.

 

[Wessiej]

[MMaRsu]

Netherlands will destroy brasil. no problem.

and I mean this dead serious. Brasil is actually quite poor. Chile was just even poorer

:lol

 

[MMaRsu]

This Dutch team could hardly beat Brazil...

 

[ATF487]

I want to see the high flying offense from the Netherlands. I'm not sure if it was Euro 2008 or the 2006 World Cup, but they my favorite team to watch that tournament

 

[Moussi]

Netherlands will destroy brasil. no problem.

If anything the netherlands looked poor today. Brazil was flawless. Netherlands got scored on by slovakia and their goalie had to be on his toes and bail em out. Let's see what a more prolific offense can do. Brazil may not be as exciting but they've been almost perfect in this world cup.

 

[markao]

Can't imagine what would happen here at the Netherlands/German border just a about a km away :lol

I still remember the next day after the 88 final, when people put up a huuuuuge banner on the biggest boarder crossing (Berg bij Arnhem), saying "now your entering the land of the European champions"


Unfortunately, two years later, on the other side of that same border crossing, there was one put up with the text "and now your entering the land of the World champions"

Time for a payback

 

[StopMakingSense]

This Dutch team could hardly beat Brazil...

That match ended up decided in PKs. So yeah "hardly", whatever. Such a great fucking game. That '98 Dutch team is what got me into soccer as an American.

:swoon: Dennis Bergkamp :swoon:



Also, that match going 120 minutes probably cost Brazil the cup.

 

[n0n44m]

:lol

we will destroy 'em !
no wait obliterate 'em !
no wait annihilate 'em !

erm actually we haven't won a game with more than 2 goals difference :lol :lol

we have a slight chance if we exploit some of their obvious weaknesses but there will not be any steamrolling going on

dutch defense had two bad moments (with excellent saves from the goaly). the rest of the game was in total control.

Laugh all you want, but every year you Germans are shitting up our highways with your caravans.

We'll have a caravan war.

 

[Cosmozone]

Netherlands vs. Brazil is gonna be interesting. I really want to know what Netherlands is worth at this WC.

And I hope Captain Tsubasa will win against Paraguay. 1-0 please.

 

[Haunted]

Man, having Uruguay - Ghana and Germany - Argentina/ Brazil - Netherlands in the same round feels kinda unbalanced. :lol The latter could've been proper finals in any other bracket.

At least we have two fucking great games to look forward to next week.

:lol

 

[Haunted]

Yep, we'll face Germany in the finals and beat them and it will be glorious.

NETHERLANDS GERMANY holy shit


We haven't encountered our two greatest football rivals in the same tournament since Italy 1990.

 

[Vox-Pop]

Brazil is going for a three-peat just like the Lakers.

 

[feel]

I hope Japan can represent and do something for Asia.

Don't really care about spain/portugal--go spain? Portugal? Who gives a fuck.

You will give a fuck once whatever precious team you're supporting gets crushed by Spain (or Portugal, because if we manage to beat Spain somehow, the moral/form boost will be huge).

I'm expecting some sparks during Spain - Portugal as well tomorrow ... they are neighbors after all

They didnt win at home last time....

Might as well call it the Brasil cup.

In fact, might as well cancel the world cup, declare Copa America the definitive tournament, and then give it to Brasil. That way, we dont have to waste time with all the diving europeans

 

[n0n44m]

NETHERLANDS GERMANY holy shit

you misspelled W-Germany 1988

Spoiler

THERE IS NO 1990

edit: ow wait there is a two in there ... nope still no 1990

Nah, still don't give a fuck.

Good luck with Ronaldo. :lol

Derbies are awesome.

Although Spain is the favourite you never know in a World Cup.
