World Cup Round of 16

Credit to Van Gaal for taking off RVP and bringing on Huntelaar, great assist and peno

LVG’s got balls.

The Mexicans threw that away.

It’s all about bottle.

Holland just about deserved that in the end I thought. Mexico were gallant but it was one way traffic there for the last 20 minutes and the Dutch eventually got their reward. Chewy knew. Handy enough route to a semi final now you would think. Robben was excellent again

Didi and the senior analyst know the score.

Incredibly foolish challenge, where on earth was Robben going to go there. Pity. I like Marquez, but rules are rules.

Netherlands.

That was very good from Holland in the last 25, the opposition are no great shakes really but the way Holland dug that out was impressive. Robben had a brilliant game… WOOF! for Snijder.'s goal, they may win it now

Holland have come from behind to win in 3 of their matches so far - United came from behind to win four times in total last season.

I presume by United you are referring to Manchester United? Could you not discuss matters pertaining to that particular franchise from the North West of England on one of the myriad of threads already in existence. This is a World Cup discussion thread.

Costa Rica are a gas team, playing what looks like 5-4-1 and an offside trap. Not something I have ever seen before

We are doing well so far

The Greeks are some cunts.

Beware of Greeks bearing gifts.

Blessed are the Greeks…they shall inherit the earth… Oh the Greeks? That’s lovely, they’ve had a hell of a time.

Greece have been brilliant. Karagounis is a class act, he’s a great leader.

The Greeks falling all over the field would make you sick… Themselves and the Italians conquered the ancient world with virtue and honour only to evolve into gutless fannies.

The Greeks were the first benders pal.

We brought civilisation to the world. Only for Greece and Italy you’d be living in a cave raping your sister.
