Good result, but bit of a 'dirty' game on both sides in my view from both sides.
The age old addage was:-
RUGBY is a game for Thugs played by Gentlemen,
FOOTBALL is a game for Gentlemen played bt Thugs.
And that's exactly what we saw.
The Brazil players were arguing about every knock, whilst Holland weren't. Both were excessively hard in tackling.
But hey, if thats the nature of the game now, so be it.
The Ghana game was very good, the ball skiull was superbe

A final Holland versus Germany is getting nearer .... I don't see a loyalties conflict though
We Germans will cheer for Germany
Team DfH will cheer for Holland
... and the English footie fans don't have reason to cheer anyway ;D
... and next time we meet we'll all drink beer with eachother!
Stunning game - didn't really expect a 4:0 versus Argentina.
Cheers
Werner
I'm out to a restaurant for a nice, juicy argentinian steak now ;D

Excellent game by the German team !!!
I hope you ordered dish number 40... four - zero. ;D
It rather looks like the European Footy Cup than the World Cup now.
That looks very likely now. :)
Two countries next to each other playing for the World Cup. That's just great !!! :laugh:

I think you'll find it was more down to the Ref and Linesman, still robbed, we would have taken it though......sounds familier.

That was an utter disgrace to football! Then again, Germany was the better side!
