Nice piece of goalkeeping there to keep Silva out.

After the first two matches, this is just a treat to watch. Wide-open quality play.

On replay, that header is a thing of beauty.

RVP header just shows how important a good first touch is and how much it can throw the opponent off. Keeper was just a spectator.

OK, just realized that the Univision stream is about 1-2 minutes behind real time. Still awesome, though.

Only 5 halves in, but that might end up being the goal of the tournament.

Terrible defending though by the CB who dropped 5 yards behind his teammates allowing the run to happen. Great pass and finish though

Surprised people aren't just launching long shots at the goal in this rain. Ball has gotta be a complete BITCH to get a grip on for a keeper.

Robben with a great goal, staying with the ball in the box.

Wasn't necessarily a glaring error this time, but Pique didn't exactly cover himself with glory there. Again, great ball, control and finish by the Punchable One though

I'm glad the Dutch player is OK there. From all the carrying on, I figured he must have lost an eye or something.

Martins Indi must be the glass man or something, to crumple after that touch from Costa. I'm pretty sure my 2-year-old has accidentally hit me harder than that.

I think the ref told him "Look, I'm Italian. I know what kind of headbutt deserves a card in the World Cup."

So close there from Van Persie. A couple of inches lower, that goes in.

I think all the feeds are the same. I watched Brazil-Croatia on WatchESPN and then, just for fun, compared it to the same game I recorded on Univision. Same feed, same graphics, just different languages and sponsors at times.

That was more of a foul by RVP than Olic's challenge yesterday.

Well, I guess you'll be able to get great odds on Spain tomorrow, re: rest of the Cup .

They win their last two games Spain will likely go through, and definitely will do if Netherlands don't lose in the group stage
