Wtf...rtes sound was about 5 seconds ahead there

Panthro

costa earns a peno.

CountyHurler

Ah ffs, I knew the penalty was given before the ball was in the box. !!!:eek:

Omeceron

Nice spoiler from Peter Collins there.

LightningBlue

Spain penalty.

stereomatic

Everyone knows about the honesty and fair play of the Dutch, it's steeped in their history

Mars Bar

Great run by Costa

Why are people on about tuning in HD channels in Sky?

RTE 2 (102) and BBC (141) are both HD for me.

Sneijder knew exactly what he was doing, kicked through both legs. Rash and stupid.

He actually didnt, bare minimum touch.

.jacksparrow.

Eh he didn't touch his foot ?

obezyana

Jayus the commentary is way out of sync.

NyOmnishambles

Ok that confirms it

Peter Collins is psychic, he blurted out about the penalty well before the picture showed it

Washington Irving

At least it was Xabi.

1-0 Spain

Nuri Sahin

Let Diego Costa take it -_-

Kylo Ren

Xabi is a slick mother trucker.

LightningBlue

Great finish by Alonso

ShaneU

Sound jumping forward on rte2 for anyone else? Commentator said penalty a few seconds before it happened

DildoFaggins

Didn't even touch him.

kevohmsford

Xabi Alonso 1-0 Spain

matrim

No peno for me. Bad decision

Nuri Sahin

Superb penalty from Xabi.

Go Alonso!!!!!

Now that is how you cheat your way to a penalty, well bought.

Frankie Lee

A worse penalty decision than the Fred one.

vidor

Lovely weighted pass from Xavi to Costa

If you dont see contact, then you're blind.

Corholio

Clever from Costa to put his foot on the Dutch player to get the penalty.

Harsh.

Son Of A Vidic

Is it me or did that ball look like it was forward and off the penalty spot?

obezyana

Another shocking decision by the officials this World Cup could be a disaster if the officials keep going the way they are.

Utopia Parkway

Don't think that was a pen. If anything Costa tried to catch the leg of the defender.

DildoFaggins

Absolutely rubbish decisions so far Costa just stuck his overextended his leg.

Hazys

Wow it looks like the Spanish player made the effort to step on his foot so that he could fall over. Not that the dutch player tripped him as much.

CountyHurler

My god, all the "technology" that Fifa employ in the game, and not one of the gobsh1tes has the common sense to use VIDEO, so that neither the penalty last nite and the penalty tonight are not given..

Andersonisgod

A rule of life, never write off Xavi Hernadez, it's been a 26 minute renaissance for the legendary Barcelona midfielder. Costa's run, the focal point he offers, suddenly this Spanish side looks a different beast, a beast with newly sharpened teeth.

1-0, Alonso securely scores the penalty. The title defence is on, the chance to make history begins.

Dapics

Did he actually touch Costa??

Clever from him.

Not a Peno for me.

born2bwild

RTE is a joke - didn't they run soundchecks before going on air? What a shambles. If the TV licence guy shows up at my door in the next few minutes I won't be responsible for my actions

Techniques07

Looks like costa will fit right in at chelsea with dives like that. Can't see holland getting back into this.

In fairness very little the ref could do it looked a peno twice for me until I saw the slowmo

Just watched that again. Costa clearly cheated. Its another bad decision. You can actually see him stick his foot towards the defender when he goes down. BBC haven't a clue

Kenjataimu

The refs are biased towards these Brazilians...

Turtwig

Only got one look at that. Silly tackle but really looked like Costa stuck his leg into Dutch player.

DildoFaggins

Might aswell start re-watching the NFL again Football is so backwards compared to the Americans,Cricket and Rugby.

Witcher

Good use of the goal line tech there

efb

Cool as ice

Lukker-

Fifa are keeping up their high standards with refereeing.

At least one awful mistake in each game so far.

IvySlayer

Goal line technology spot on there
