Whats up with the banner? 3 Holland players and only Villa for Spain? lol.



:(

Yeah that was the point. :p

I had another thread ready to submit had Germany reached the final, you'll be pleased to know they had 3 players like Holland.

I'm pretty gutted about this final in all honesty, a real shame Germany didn't show up tonight as a Holland vs Germany final would have been fireworks.
 
I see Spain winning it, they maintain possession of the ball in midfield too well, I don't think Holland will cope with it, but Robben as much as I despise him will give Capdevila a nightmare on the left, I'm still keeping my fingers crossed that Holland win but I don't see it happening.

Happy Birthday Jakeke! :)
 
I didn't think much of the final, bad refereeing, bad sportsmanship, bad everything really. It highlighted every single bad aspect of the game today. And what made it worse was the biggest cheat in the final scored the winner.

I have to say on a positive note that had Fabregas started the game, we would have actually seen goals in the 90 minutes. He changed every game he was brought on for Spain. He made runs, he didn't stand in midfield and do a hundred 5 yard passes like the rest of them, he moved forwards, he got himself in two good goal scoring positions last night and set up the goal that won the world cup. Spain should have started with him in each and every match.
 
LOL sorry as much as i agree with your point about Fabregas i just cannot believe you actually think Iniesta was the biggest cheat on the pitch...id give that award to Robben and Van Bommel....one who likes/loves to dive at every opportunity and the other who is just a plain dangerous and nasty tackler. Bad sportsmanship was shown by the Dutch at one point where the dutch player, cant remember who it was that instead of kicking the ball out he decided to kick upfield so it went out near the corner post....very poor showing by the Dutch imo.

Its funny how every single pundit more or less said the Spanish deserved to win the game whereas if the Dutch had won it would have been a victory for dangerous, cynical and malicious football. And on here we have a few people saying that the Dutch deserved to win it.

I'll also add this too that its ok to slate the Spanish for diving or going down easily but yet plenty of other teams including the Dutch do exactly the same but no one bats an eyelid.

Thankfully the right team, the one who played the right sort of football won.

Spain deserved to win. Absolutely no question about that. I knew Spain just had a little too much for Holland to cope with. But as a football match, both sides were poor, both teams diving at every given opportunity, Holland lucky not to be down to at least 10 men by half time. A game that wasn't under control by Webb, Spain seemed to get a lot of the 50/50 decisions and if a Spanish player went down it was an instant freekick. The refereeing was inconsistent. The diving and feigning injury was consistent for Spain in this world cup. I wouldn't have cared if the match was called off and nobody won it, I was that disinterested in it by the end.

I've slated them all for diving. This world cup has been utter turd. :p

The 'right sort of football' was boring. :p Effective to achieve the four wins (all 1-0) needed after the group stage to win the world cup, but an utter disappointment as a spectacle and entertainment.
