HOLY @#$%@%, what an ending to extra time and to PKs in the Uruguay-Ghana match!

I need Luis Suarez to buy my lottery tickets for me!

P.S. No Vuvuzela emoticon yet?

EDUT: God, watching the losing team right after a match kills me. Gyan has gotta be sick.

CRIES OUT LOUD!

DUDE~~~

WHAT ON EARTH?

BRAZIL LOST 2 THE NETHERLANDS?

AND ARGENTINA 2 GERMANY???

I was pretty sure that Argentina would be the winner of this WC. Hopes are gone. Ok, at least there is Holland left to support...

I was pretty sure Argentina was gonna loose, but to Spain. Now a seemingly overestimated Spanish team has to face against a titan Germany, while Uruguay has to face against Holland.

Im rooting for Uruguay and Germany to meet in the finals. But a Spain vs Holland battle would not be that bad.

Dutch/Spanish final please.

Total football finally wins.

I hope it's NaruSaku because I believe in "love" in Naruto should be like homemade ramen, not three minute instant.

Please, no Uruguay. They cheated to get thier, even with the penalty. Ball would have gone in without the help of Suarez's hands. I pray Holland kicks their ass HARD.

Germany's gonna roll Spain over. They're off form

lol not rly...when you consider soccer, the commentators are very biased. One commentator in Fox Sports said about the defeat of Argentina as a whooping. He later recalled it, and said it was not a whooping it was a big whooping.

Dunga's not a bad coach. He introduced a style that is more modern and less beautiful, much to the disdain of many Brazilians. He pretty much said "I don't care if its not pretty, this style is only meant to win." He's been a great coach, the Brazilian team (although I do agree that Kaka didn't play to his full ability) played well through group play (despite a lackluster match with Portugal), and smashed Chile as they rightly should. The thing is, they ran into a good opponent who could match them and they happened to lose. It wasn't that Brazil played badly, its that another team came in and played better. Gone are the days where Brazil simply dominated everyone. Its not that Brazil has gotten worse, its that other teams are now more at their level. Its as simple as that. Holland is a great side and well deserved their win, and Brazil played well as well. If they would have played in their traditional style that focused on flashy offense, they would have gotten less far than the quarterfinal, imo. Dunga's style is efficient and defensively solid. Just because a coach loses or breaks from tradition doesn't make him a bad coach. Brazil played well, it just seems the rest of the world has caught up.

Dunga could have had the team win by letting good players in. He was grouchy, and treated the players with a bit of, perhaps, intolerance. I am awear that while he was coaching the team, he was able to win several matches. But now, it doesn't matter anymore because he was fired. The new coach is still to be announced. If he were truly a good coach he should have found the team's flaws and worked on it so that more victories could come.
