    Costa Rica look like a team that will be happy to get to penalties. And we all know how good they are at penalties. So for that reason, I want the Dutch to take the lead.

    If (when) the Dutch go ahead it's game over.

    Remember 2006 WC being a bit better when it came to this stage of the competition. This has been terrible so far.

    Robben went through the air as if he stepped on a land mine.

    He's the only player I know, that dives even when he's genuinely fouled.

    Great control from Robben.

    Van Persie has been very poor, get Huntelaar on.

    I keep commentating on the match in my head in a Ray Houghten voice "He should of done better there, George." I am possibly going insane.

    They should get Kerr in to commentate via Skype. Preferably with a few beers in him.

    Most watchable of the 1/4 finals so far imo. Not saying a lot though .

    Should he not be booked for all those offsides? Continuous foul play?

    No just find it more exciting, not the most exciting match but certainly better than Argentina's match

    Classic Kerr earlier, going on about Fellaini and how you can't miss him with the big bushy head.

    It's not classic football though. Expected better from the Dutch

    He was going on about skinheads and how they get booked more often too. He's great for spouting mad **** when there's a lull in the game.

    I think it has been an ok match so far. Both teams looking to hit on the break. Looks like it will come down to fitness and I expect the Dutch have the advantage with Costa Rica having played extra time in the last match

    RVP scored as many goals per minute played in 2013-14 as he did in 2012-13. Poor effort 1/10

    Supply to him is poor tonight.

    Scrap the cap!

    RVP not really in this game at all. Kuyt has some set of lungs on him! He looks spent though.
