Stupid signal broke up during the replays.

 

Hooooly crap.

[Guest]

Holy [expletive].

Should have been a second penalty for Spain - Fabregas was clearly pulled down.

 

What the hell is going on right now.

[E.J.]

Wow. That was pretty exciting. :shock:

WOW WOW WOW

 

I took three posts to get that ball in the net. I thought for sure Villa's was bouncing out.

[Jon]

Wow. Had the 2nd attempt also stayed out, I'd say that would've been one of the craziest things of the tournament.

[Butterscup1679666578]

oh my god.

[Jon]

Looked like he followed through that chance a bit too fast.

[sweetpeteman]

Looked like he followed through that chance a bit too fast.

 

 

yeah, if he taps it to his left, its an easy goal.

 

 

 

That's game.

[Guest]

Holy crap, what a second half. I feel bad for Paraguay.

ESPN decided to celebrate the 4th of July by replaying England's 4-1 defeat to Germany on ESPN2.

Remember when we were complaining about the lack of scoring after the 1st set of group play :-).

Hoping for a Spain-Netherlands final - I want to see a first time winner - though I don't dislike any of the teams remaining so I won't be disappointed with any matchup.

Me too, because Spain were my favourites from the start, although I admit the psychology of a Germany-Holland match up would be truly epic (the Orange army would go nuts)

Hoping for Germany-Holland. Those have always been my two favorite non-US sides (yeah, yeah, I know they're rivals, but the reasons escape me here in middle America). Though, if that happens, I'll feel real bad rooting against the Dutch getting their first World Cup. I would be happy pretty much no matter what.

Thats what I want too, plus I think Spain presents a more favorable matchup for Holland.

[brinoch]

I'm rooting for Holland all the way. I suppose I wouldn't mind seeing Spain win it... but I'd much rather see the Dutch get their win.

[wolf stansson]

I want a new winner.

If Landon Donovan did that, you would declare him a conquering hero.

[Magnetic Curses]

i don't think i follow

[chuckywang]

i don't think i follow

 

I assume you hate Uruguay because of the Suarez handball or was there already some animosity?
