    Yes! Brazil is OUT! Thanks, Holland!

    No matter what happens now, the cup will be a great surprise and much more exciting.

    Awesome!

    Wooohow! No more possible final match between Germany and Brazil, what a relief. Unfortunately I couldn't watch the match because I was at work, but I'll watch the next quarter finale tonight and of course Germany tomorrow. =)

    Thankfully, Brazil is out! Now the whole country can go back to normal!

    They played well on the first half, but on the 2nd half, Holland owned the match. They could have score more goals if they wanted.

    Felipe Melo, like everybody knew, is crazy. Juventus fans hate him for a reason. And Dunga should have called better players to this world cup. Felipe Melo, Michel Bastos, Kleberson, Gilberto, Grafite, to name a few, don't deserve to be on the national team.

    I'll cheer for Uruguay today, and tomorrow for Germany and Spain.

    Wow, that was quite a match! After the 1-0 I thought 'if they score 2-0 it's over'. We made quite a comeback and Brazil looked shocked after the 1-1 and they kinda gave us the chance to come back and win the game.

    Awesome.

    Really amazing stuff. The last minute was just unbearable, with that player sacrificing himself to keep Uruguay in the game and provoke a penalty kick.

    I'll be cheering for Paraguay and Germany tomorrow, let's see if we can kick those Argentinian's asses XD

    Totally agree, I'm don't follow football too much but this last match was just awesome!

    And yeah, Suarez sacrificing himself for the team has to be the best moment I have seen in this World Cup :-0

    Sebastian "Loco" Abreu, the one that scored the final goal for Uruguay is a Botafogo player! For those who don't know, i'm a Botafogo fan!

    He made the exact same thing on a penalty kick this year, on the final against Flamengo, to win the Carioca League:

    I was sat on my sofa at home and as he was running up I said to my missus 'I bet he chips it again the same as before'. Ghana were robbed in a way though.

    Just watched the Germany game. They were fantastic :thumbsup:

    I thought it was moronic, since it was practically an assured penalty. He got lucky because Gyan was an even bigger moron.

    It was to get his team another chance, otherwise Ghana would have scored. They bought a chance,... and it paid, miraculously. :)



    Oh, and I just watched the Germany game... what am I supposed to say?
    THIS IS MADNESS!!!!
    It got insane with the 3rd and Argentina received a perfect defeat with that 4th goal. I'm listening to a chorus of horns out on the streets, absolutely incredible game!
    And not enough, with his recent goals Klose got on par with Gert Müller and only ONE behind Ronaldo! This game is history.

    Amazing! Germany team is amazing!

    Özil, Müller, Podolski, Schweinsteiger, Lahm, Friedrich, ... a true TEAM

    Robbed? How? Ghana was about to score, Suarez "saved a goal", got the red card and Ghana got a penalty kick to win the match. They lost it, and then it the decision was on penalty kicks. Two Ghana players, Mensah and Adiyah, were overconfident and shot terrible and then they lost again.

    Plus Suarez can be punished by Fifa for more than one game, so even if Uruguay beats Holland, he probably won't play on the final match. Think about it, last seconds of the 2nd overtime, the ball is going to enter the goal, your team will lose.... He did what anyone would do! Talk about taking one for the team.
