This has NOTHING to do with Diabetes......

Another last minute goal to rescue a another big country! Portugal saved themselves with a last kick of the game goal. The Staes had nearly pulled off a shock going 2-1 up with about twenty minutes to go! Portugal would have been knocked out of the competition if they had lost and the States would have guaranteed a place in the last sixteen! Now the States have to face Germany to get a point to qualify.
Remember, the so called 'fixed' game between Germany and Austria, when both teams only required a draw for both to progress! Result, a draw!

Another great game!
 
Which team thinks that they can avoid Brazil, or will both teams just play out for a draw in this heat.?
 
I don't think either team should be fearful of playing Brazil, it's one of the weakest Brazilian sides in a long time. Chile might be better suited to playing them, but Hollands pace up front would cause problems, plus RvP would be back. I would think the runners up in group A would be a more dangerous prospect, either Mexico or Croatia, I'd be more concerned about playing either of them.
 
Brazil certainly haven't reached there pre tournament favourites performance yet!
The number of goals will I think drop as the tournament gets into the last 16.
The bookies are not usually wrong!

Good tactical game though!
 
It is, despite the lack of goal mouth action, it's been very watchable
 
Love all the histrionics, diving, falling over, pleading innocence, lots of petulant stuff!
I must be missing the Premier League!
 
That's the winner! Ten minutes injury time or what!!!
 
I've always rated Arjen Robben but I think he's been outstanding in this competition
 
HUP HUP HOLLAND He He
 
And I agree that Chile could well do for Brazil if they recover the touch they showed against Spain.

I think we've just seen World Cup winners. Holland look so strong.

They do look strong Mo, it'll be interesting to see how they cope against 'better' opposition

Brazil have to win, to avoid Holland! Can the hosts take the pressure?
 
Has Phil Thompson got an agenda regarding the England team and the Liverpool players currently in the team?
I've never heard such propaganda pro Liverpool rubbish in all my life!
They will not have such a good season as next year, they have been found out, unless they completely change the team or change team tactics!
Steven Gerard has been absolutely garbage and has to retire!

That's my view! He is not a sitting midfielder, he can't do the job, get someone in who can!
