Yeah - great win for the Dutch. Still concerned that the defence
was at times, shaky. Hopefully that's just 1st game jitters &
they go from strength to strength. So far Cillesen has been the
best keeper out of the 4 that I've seen so far. Did not watch
the Mex v Cam game.

Stunning to see Spain so dejected by that! Love it! Especially
given that they went 1 up through a soft penalty, then slowed
the game down.
They tried to play offside too much & got caught out. Then a few
over the top balls were well controlled & finished off. Their
aging players just don't have it in them, to recover from a goal
or 2 down (Del Bosque's expression said it all when they went
behind). The keeper is pathetic - yes, we (unfortunately) know
that Mourinho was spot on to bench him.
There would've been no justice if Casillas had claimed a clean
sheet and succeeded Walter Zenga's record. Zenga was truly
brilliant (saying this as an AC MIlan fan)! Sure Italy used to
slow games down, but Casillas has that record because the
players in front of him really kill the game off & put their
opponents to sleep, 2nd to none.

after that and tot overrun

Agree on Alonso, was happy when he went off.
@kiwi; defence will be shaky throughout the tourney. But ss long
as we score more goals, who cares?

Funny comment about cillissen, the one thing he was critized
about was his passing, we have other keepers that are better
then him in that area.

Just a heads up for FUT, prices have gone crazy, Robben is back
up to 200k, double what he was, SIF Pedro has just made me over
100k profit, his price over 100k higher than it was a week ago
and also TOTS Aduriz and Leno have gone with 50% increase on
them both, not to mention Pique, Alba and Xavi. In 5 minutes
I've sold my seasons team, a few other golds and more than made
back the 250k loss I had on Messi. Prices will drop after the WC
hype drops and more people return to normal FUT and the number
of cards on the market increases again.

Scrambled, but a good finish by Sanchez. Hope that he's a real
target for Utd & not just rumours!

How the hell did Australia manage to qualify for this? I
understand WC should have teams from around the world but this
is just ridiculous

Crikey! 2 guys shoulder-to-shoulder & the ref calls it a foul.
Great. Goal for Aussie. Hopefully that's all!
