The World Cup 2010 thread

[KlogW]

I'm shocked we won this WC without even playing our best. I was never too confident about our playing but still we made it. It's a great day for us.

I can't understand how 3 fucking referees can miss that it should have clearly been a corner for the Netherlands before the corner.

I can't understand how 3 fucking referees can miss that this

is a fucking red card.

That would rather hurt I reckon

 

[leandroab]

Can't be Italy though!

Fuck Paul. I told you guys!

I'm your new messiah!

Watch the replay again. Iniesta was a good 2 yards onside.

In the last clip on here, they even highlight how onside he was. => FIFA.com - Netherlands 0:1 a.e.t. Spain

and yes butthurt dutchy here i went to amsterdam to watch te match it was a complete warzone

 

[Rex]

Thanks

yea but that pass before that was offside

I don´t understand that attitud men, Spain was better in all aspects

Spain = footbal 1 - Netherland = foul play 0

 

[Opeth666]

spain dominated, and had much more possession, the netherlands did have their chances...but goddamn dude I cannot stand van brommel.

 

[Opeth666]

His cross led to the final goal.

what I mean't was getting injured almost as soon as he stepped on the field after the goal happend when he was chasing down a long ball. It wasn't his knee this time it seemed like it was his hamstring.

Cruyff: "The Holland game was ugly, coarse, hard, tight, inconspicuous and little football"

 

[snuif09]

yea the game itself sucked but we kinda earned it IMO

 

[gunshow86de]

He was offside on the cross, but the pass fell well short and the Netherlands retook possession (sort of, falling down and having the ball bounce off of you isn't really taking possession, but that's the rules). When he fell down, the Netherlands player rolled towards the goal and brought Iniesta back onside. An incredibly lucky play that could have easily been flagged right away. My guess is the ref was looking at the other Spain player near the box (who was onside for the cross), since the ball was actually closer to him, even though it was intended for Iniesta.

Some questionable officiating just like the rest of the tournament. I still can't believe Puyol got away with spinning Robben completely around on that break away.

Dull? I find Spain's game to be the most exciting in the tournament, at least until they get up by a goal or two. David Villa is the man

This.

 

[GalacticDeath]

I just watched the replay today. Very exciting, although the Netherlands got a bunch of fouls called against them and a few of those didn't seem like fouls to me. Both of the keepers were outstanding, each side could have scored about 2 more goals if the keepers weren't so awesome.

Congratulations Spain!

Robben was just too quick for Poyul .. though he should have scored both of those where we was basically one on one with the keeper..
