[+Frank B. Subscriber²]

Isn't Neobond from Netherlands ? lol

He must be in the PUB....

Neobond is an Englishman living in the Netherlands. Pretty sure he's in the pub right now, celebrating...

[Hani]

That cant happen as a final. It would be the semi-final :p

I realized that after posting :p

I wouldn't have thought so, given this https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/914860-lest-we-forget-munchen/

English til he dies :p

I'm so ****ing happy right now. First half I thought they were going home. Then in the second half The Netherlands played so much better. Didn't expect that at all, but deserved win for our team. Brazil was desperate/scared in the last minutes.

Now I'm off to the pub/streets to party as hard as I can. Woooooooo!

:yes:

Glad you knocked them out!

They'll win the next one anyway...

Final match: Uruguay vs Paraguay

[Zoom7000]

Woo Hoo! My Sweepstakes pick goes that little bit further! :p

But seriously, brilliant to see Holland go through. I hope they can actually do well without falling over near the end as they have done on far too many occasions!

[Pharos]

all you dutch have to thank Pele....

he said brasil will be in finals this year... :cool:

Actually, I read Pelé said he did not have faith in this team. And he wasn't so confident about this one game. He was right. FML :cry:

I live in a very Brazilian-populated city here in the US... Which means:

- No crazy backyard bbqs that last til next morning; :cry:

- No hot girls shaking their booties and provocative dance moves :cry:

that would make me the biggest brazil fan in the world too

[Valerus]

I wore my Sneijder jersey today, having faith but knowing that Brasil is a huge opponent. After he basically scored both goals, I knew I picked the right day to wear the jersey :D

[Pajter]

Sneijder completely made up for his bad playing in the previous games.

[Argote]

Final Netherlands vs Germany, anyone?

I sure hope so, that'd be EPIC.

[TheElite]

Not a really convincing victory.

Netherlands are going out in the next round.

[.Kompressor]

Not a really convincing victory.

Netherlands are going out in the next round.

I doubt it...not playing against Uruguay they wont.

Did you not see the second half? Sure they didn't finish all their chances, but they created a lot. Dominating a great team like Brazil is not something that comes naturally.

Still, they're not in the final yet. They'll need to keep fighting. It won't be easy.

[TheElite]

They started to dominate a team with 10 players. And even then Brazil managed to keep NL under pressure at times.

As I said, unconvincing. Netherlands won't win the world cup. You can put this text on the front page for all I care, it's the truth.

Cool. Didn't know you could predict the future. :p

They may not but they are now 2nd favourites to win the world cup, mainly due to them being favourites to reach the final on there side.

They've won every single game they've played this world cup, including all qualifiers. They are now on a 15 game win streak and 'should' at least make it 16, they're on form and they're winning.. No opponent will find playing Holland 'easy' and whoever they come against, Holland certainly have a good chance to beat them. You dont need to be 'convincing' to win a world cup, you just need to win.. and thats what Holland are doing.

o and btw, the favourites to win the World Cup (only team more favoured at this point than Holland is Spain.. and they havent exactly been convincing this world cup).
