cartman · 06-13-2014, 02:44 PM

Great move by RVP to score there

flere-imsaho · 06-13-2014, 02:45 PM

Nice piece of goalkeeping there to keep Silva out.

JPhillips · 06-13-2014, 02:45 PM

What an incredible pass and header for the Dutch goal!

Butter · 06-13-2014, 02:46 PM

Wow, what a header.

Solecismic · 06-13-2014, 02:46 PM

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

cartman · 06-13-2014, 02:46 PM

On replay, that header is a thing of beauty.

Coffee Warlord · 06-13-2014, 02:46 PM

Amazing goal.

Abe Sargent · 06-13-2014, 02:47 PM

interesting half

flere-imsaho · 06-13-2014, 02:47 PM

Univision: "Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllll!!!!!"

Beautiful pass by Blind to set that up.

Butter · 06-13-2014, 02:47 PM

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.

flere-imsaho · 06-13-2014, 02:48 PM

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

cartman · 06-13-2014, 02:49 PM

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

Great pass and finish though

Coffee Warlord · 06-13-2014, 03:08 PM

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.

Abe Sargent · 06-13-2014, 03:10 PM

cartman · 06-13-2014, 03:10 PM

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

AlexB · 06-13-2014, 03:12 PM

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

Solecismic · 06-13-2014, 03:14 PM

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

ISiddiqui · 06-13-2014, 03:14 PM

Wow... 2-1 Dutch... this is going to be fun 2nd half as Spain tries to get the equalizer!

flere-imsaho · 06-13-2014, 03:15 PM

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.

They say footballers are soft, but you have to admire his guts in carrying on after that. True soldier.

cartman · 06-13-2014, 03:17 PM

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

AlexB · 06-13-2014, 03:17 PM

Now THAT would have been a great goal

cartman · 06-13-2014, 03:18 PM

OHHHH

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

flere-imsaho · 06-13-2014, 03:19 PM

Huh, Patrick Kluivert's gained some weight since he stopped playing.

Coffee Warlord · 06-13-2014, 03:20 PM

Okay, if you're watching Univision...What Was That Fan.

flere-imsaho · 06-13-2014, 03:21 PM

I know, right?

Abe Sargent · 06-13-2014, 03:21 PM

And now its 3

miami_fan · 06-13-2014, 03:22 PM

flere-imsaho · 06-13-2014, 03:22 PM

And apparently Spain's search for a striker continues....

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.

cartman · 06-13-2014, 03:23 PM

Wow, Spain has now given up more goals in this game than they did in the 3 group games in 2012

AlexB · 06-13-2014, 03:23 PM

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

kingfc22 · 06-13-2014, 03:24 PM

Croatia is steaming now.

Abe Sargent · 06-13-2014, 03:24 PM

So close SPAIN111

flere-imsaho · 06-13-2014, 03:26 PM

RVP with a classic RVP foul.

Well, in that case, all I can say is that the Dutch fans in attendance are... interesting....

On a side note, after that last goal when they went to the crowds, a huge pair of knockers immediately captivated me, then I worked my eyes to the face and saw it was a guy. Thanks Dutch!!

Abe Sargent · 06-13-2014, 03:29 PM

Well. at 4-1 I think we can call it

cartman · 06-13-2014, 03:29 PM

My, how far Iker Casillas has fallen.

PilotMan · 06-13-2014, 03:30 PM

Wow, could this spell the end on GD and morale alone?

stevew · 06-13-2014, 03:30 PM

Jesus

BYU 14 · 06-13-2014, 03:31 PM

Wow, Spain is just tanking it....

Hope Van Persie keeps this up for ManU next season

Holy crap... who in the world would have predicted this?

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

.

AlexB · 06-13-2014, 03:34 PM

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

flere-imsaho · 06-13-2014, 03:34 PM
