Watching soccer sux, especially the way that the South Americans & Euros do so with such ridiculous
fanaticism. So I'm glad that the Brazilians lost…and the USA too. I now hope that I won't have to hear
about it for at least another 4 years. Any sport that disallows the use of hands is ******ed.
Yesterday's game was the polar opposite of what we saw in Germany/Brazil matchup. Two teams with a solid plan to neutralize the other team's attack, staying committed, and executed the game plan.
The Dutch really should have scored at the end of regulation. They started to dominate and had many opportunities to score. I thought Argentina played really well in the first half despite Messi being blanketed constantly by two defenders. They also had their chances even in such a tight game.
Robben was fantastic again. Van Persie shouldn't have played to begin with. He was useless and actually screwed up a couple of buildups. Vlaar was fantastic defending Messi. He was like Revis on a WR with safety help lol.
I thought Mascherano was man of the match. He was all over the place and made some game saving tackles.
Feel bad for the Netherlands. I was rooting for them to finally win one. But I'm looking forward to the finals on Sunday.
