Does the ref ever card for diving? Spain is the worst.

[Guest]

I just watched Spain/Netherlands for about 5 minutes before realizing I had the teams' jerseys backwards.

 

One of them should really be wearing red or orange.

I never take advantage of the little color code they use on the ticker.

Not nearly as much as they should.

 

Just wait for Uruguay (Suarez in particular) and Argenina.

I'd just like to watch a game where the officiating isn't disgustingly bad.

[Guest]

What a beautiful goal.

[Guest]

That flipped quickly. Should have been 2-0 Spain but Silva can't finish and seconds later its 1-1.

[UMFan83]

that was a beauty

[Guest]

That pass. That goal. So beautiful.

The Dutch know how to cross and chip.

 

Costa should be off.

[wolf stansson]

Beat. Down.

[Guest]

Wow. Spain's now given up more goals today than in the entire 2010 World Cup combined.

[Guest]

Casillas has not had a good month.

[UMFan83]

Wow, this is fun.

 

The contact with the goalie was about as bad as the foul on the Croatian player yesterday that cost them a potential goal.

[shnsajax]

Loving this. And I still don't believe Costa should have gotten that penalty.

[Guest]

Casillas has not had a good month.

 

And it continues.

[Guest]

Is Casillas drunk?

[shnsajax]

Wow!!!!!!!

[Guest]

LOL Spain.

 

This is ridiculous.

[Mark Priors Calves]

What the hell is Spain doing?

[wolf stansson]

Sergio got put in the crisper. He's a dick, but man is Robben class.

[Guest]

After Mexico inevitably gets through their group, can the Netherlands do this to them also in the Round of 16? Because that would be great.

[Guest]

Seriously, did Casillas get attacked by the Monstar aliens? What in the world is he doing out there?

[UMFan83]

This makes group B much more interesting.

 

The Dutch will have at least 3 more points via the socceroos so they will be through. It will come down to Spain needing 3 points against Chile. A draw or loss and they are out.

 

This is assuming:

-Australia doesn't get any points

-Chile doesn't get blown out by the Netherlands

This has gotta be psychological at this point
