Decent game, but superb equalising goal, then it was mexicos own fault they lost, cant do bad tackles like that..
Holland should have had a pen earlier on aswell.
Well done Holland for keeping going right to the end..

Greece's time to show ITALY,ENGLAND,URUGUAY how crap costa rica actually are.....
'yammas'
3-1 to Greece

Greece in 3-goals-in-one-game shock?! :eek:

I just love football no matter whos playing 95% of my world cup predications i said there would be at least 3 goals per game!
Im ever the optimist, i hate watching 0-0,1-0s etc..

AFAIC id love to see 8+ goals in every match.
I dont have an overall fave but usually support the underdogs as its more exciting for me that way.

25 mins in tonight quite an even start!
(hmm was 3-1 being too optimistic?):rotfl:

Overall i prefer to see as many european teams through as possible, (with the exception of the superb england:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:)

P.s
As you can guess by my score predications so far, the competitions that made us all predict scores, ''IVE DEFINATELY LOST'' after the very first games of world cup - oops!
(maybe next time i will go for more realistic scores)

At the end of the day football is football, some matches will be stunning some matches will be dull and boring.
As an overall neutral football lover it doesnt bother me, i like every match between any teams.

(even you have to admit some times your beloved blues played awful last season, as did every club in the prem league/bbva etc)

Only hardcore supporters of certain football teams find other matches boring..
Take it for what it is, the world cup! Who cares whos playing/how their playing ITS STILL FOOTBALL.

"A tough watch" says the BBC. Looks like I made the right decision to swerve this. Thankfully, for me, the majority of games have been superb.

This late game really is poor. The fact the teams got roundly booed off by the crowd says it all.

The earlier game, Mexico sat so far back and just invited the Dutch onto them. They should of kept playing their game as the Dutch weakness is clearly their defence and keeper. They have a strong attack but look average at the back. If they want to get through to the final/win it, I think it will have to be we will score more goals than you type football due too that poorness.

i can see greece sneaking this

mainly due to everyone falling asleep - there have been no decent game where greece have been involved.
