No Dunphy today.. this is an outrage!

Oooh.. Elano & Ramirez are out for the game. I still think Brazil will win though - Holland's back four aren't the best - especially Van Bronkhurst who is useless. If Maicon can get at him down the wing, they'll destroy them.

Holland still have Robben & Schneider in the middle though, so Brazil will have to be on top form at closing them down.

Hopefully there'll be an early goal to open the game up - otherwise it could be a cagey snoozefest.

OutlawPete

Should have been Red, what the fcuk was he supposed to be kicking at other than the player?

I don't get commentators. ITV giving out that the linesman took too long to flag offside for brazils disallowed goal "even tho he got the decision correct"

Isn't there a new rule that says that the linesman can't flag for offside until the player in an offside position is in a position to interfere with play? You'd think the commentators would be aware of that

Im not sure. Soccer wouldn't be my strongpoint but it seems like a good idea to me that the official takes a second to process what he's seen and give the correct decision. There have been plenty of wrong, game changing decisions already in the WC.

narky game

OutlawPete

I have never understood how someone can shield a ball going out of play, make no attempt to play it, and yet that is not considered obstruction :mad:

SeaFields

I hate all this throwing themselves in a heap and wriggling in agony on the ground after a tackle. Get up ye pussys!

OutlawPete

Great defending from Brazil there.

First half of my bet up anyway

Mini Driver

Anyway half time...whose for tae?!

1/4 of one bet

1/8 of another bet

AskMyChocolate

Jaysis. It'll take a good team to beat them. I thought the Dutch would do them, but they look a little bit outclassed. Looks like Spain v Brazil in the final.

*looks for forecast bet*

SeaFields

Robin is trying to do it all himself. Will cost them a few chances unless he starts looking up and laying it off around the box.
