That was a pretty ugly first half. How come that doesn't surprise me in a match with Uruguay as opponent.

That was a pretty ugly first half. How come that doesn't surprise me in a match with Uruguay as opponent.
The kick to the face was pretty impressive. :noob:
That's one of the best shots I've ever seen. Couldn't have been better placed, and must have been what, 35 meters? Holy Frackin Christ!
Then Uruguay counters with what must be considered keeper's error. Gack. Still, that's why you've got to put the ball on goal, even if it's straight at the keeper (coughgreencough).
Of course, if the Dutch lose, then I win our floor's bracket. I picked Dutch and Deutsch in the Final with Germany winning, while some postdoc who knows nothing about soccer picked the Dutch winning it all.
I'm surprised he could play on after that. It looked as if it was hard enough to break his jaw.Quote:

.... how right am I looking? :)
Classic goal from Robben. :up:
That referee needs to be taken out and shot for booking Van Bommel.
The city is exploding overhere... I am fucking angry... trying to recoup myself.
Europe will win outside of Europe! :up:
Hup Holland Hup!
Congrats to the Oranje. :D:up:
Wow... I just hear there were 80,000 people watching the match at the Museumplein.
Just got permission to tune the lab TVs into the World Final this Sunday. Just need to figure out how to enable the CC. :D
Fun game, crazy ending.
Hmmmm... there's a helicopter hovering right over my roof. It seems they are filming the city from there.
De Zeeuw seems to be in a hospital at the moment that kick in the face may have fractured his jaw. Still don't get how he played on after it happened.
This is great :D
Last 5 minutes cost a years of my life though. But it's worth it :up:
Yep - exciting finish to the game. :eek:
I'm guaranteed some cash out of this now. Nederlande was one of my two office sweepstake teams. Cash prizes for winner & runner up. :up:
Cheers boys.
Did you also put a bet on them like i said?
No. :(
Did you?
No. :sour:

At least this one tells me to bug off in English, instead of your pretend language. :p
One hour untill the Germany - Spain match.
Here in Holland everything is being rescheduled for the final on sunday.
Which is why I consumed copious amounts of it, I'm broken today :(Quote:

Celebrated by swimming in the sea, followed by going out and drinking a lot without wearing underwear, since it was wet :p
First half was pretty boring with a lot of predictable pinging.
Spain - Holland on sunday. I see - again - no reason why we couldn't win that.
Germany was a total no show.
I feel less confident against Spain then I would have been against Germany. If we can handle the pressure they put on the ball whenever we're in possession we have a shot at the title.
