The header was insane :o [img]https://d13csqd2kn0ewr.cloudfront.net/uploads/image/file/54035/cropped_RVP.gif?ts=1402688899[/img] Anyone else see the horrific goal line technology replay of the first goal?

Why the hell did they need to show that for a penalty of all things? The picture that described the Second Half though: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/ULvdJhU.jpg[/IMG]
I always thought we could win, but 5-1? Jesus christ. :D
[QUOTE=Jordax;45097139]Yeah, I saw that one. Why the hell did they need to show that for a penalty of all things?[/QUOTE] I think it was just to demonstrate that they had it and that it was working properly
Holland? Do people really still call The Netherlands Holland?
[QUOTE=sambooo;45097350]Holland? Do people really still call The Netherlands Holland?[/QUOTE] When talking about football, yes.
[QUOTE=sambooo;45097350]Holland? Do people really still call The Netherlands Holland?[/QUOTE] In Portugal, we call it Holanda(Holland) rather than Países Baixos("Low Countries AKA Netherlands). There's some history involved on why but I'm too lazy to find out right now.

My dad couldn't believe Spain lost that badly.
[QUOTE=garychencool;45097983]My dad couldn't believe Spain lost that badly.[/QUOTE] Nobody can believe it lost that fucking badly.
[QUOTE=garychencool;45097983]My dad couldn't believe Spain lost that badly.[/QUOTE] No one could belive it, Spain has always had a great track record, even if they don't win they put up one hell of a fight. Holland not so much.
[QUOTE=sambooo;45097350]Holland? Do people really still call The Netherlands Holland?[/QUOTE] It's not being ill-informed. The football team is still usually called Holland.
[QUOTE=Gwoodman;45097413]In Portugal, we call it Holanda(Holland) rather than Países Baixos("Low Countries AKA Netherlands). There's some history involved on why but I'm too lazy to find out right now.[/QUOTE] we call it holanda too, most people think that netherlands(países baixos) is simply another name for holland lol. :v:
[QUOTE=Jonzky;45096994] Anyone else see the horrific goal line technology replay of the first goal?[/QUOTE] I saw that poor man's face hitting the ground in slow mo totally worth it though
Hup Holland Hup! [img]http://blog.cleantech.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/hup_holland_hup.jpg[/img] (fun fact I actually own a huge version of this flag) [editline]13th June 2014[/editline] My mom is a flight attendant, when she flies to Europe during the cup she'll announce the score over the PA mid flight, causing the entire galley to burst into cheering
Can someone explain the magnitude of this to me using colorful metaphors?
I call the football team Oranje
[QUOTE=pod;45099444]Can someone explain the magnitude of this to me using colorful metaphors?[/QUOTE] spain won the last world cup in the final game against the netherlands, and now, the netherlands has beaten them. its like if the super smash bros world champion lost against the guy he had to fight to get the title except 5-1 is a pretty humiliating score, so it's like if the guy fighting the world champion used nothing but yoshi's egg throw to beat him
[QUOTE=Mr. Agree;45096975]Glad Van Gaal is our new manager[/QUOTE] Man United fans are circle jerking everywhere.
Australia is fucked
[QUOTE=Cutthecrap;45098635][QUOTE=garychencool;45097983]My dad couldn't believe Spain lost that badly.[/QUOTE] Nobody can believe it lost that fucking badly.[/QUOTE] Spain's team is shit this year, so it isnt that hard to believe that.
[QUOTE=Badballer;45099780]Australia is fucked[/QUOTE] Aren't we always? :v:
[QUOTE=Badballer;45099780]Australia is fucked[/QUOTE]I haven't seen any television today but no doubt the Australian media is putting a positive spin on a 3-1 loss. "Brave performance, there's still hope" or something. Stop trying to get everyone's hopes up, media.
Lol fukken owned. Us Belgians always cheer for the Dutch. We know we'll never achieve much, so we have at least some way to feel pride by proxy. :v:
I got so many of these yesterday.

I havent heard of so much support for the Netherlands since the eighty years war.
[QUOTE=sambooo;45097350]Holland? Do people really still call The Netherlands Holland?[/QUOTE] Pretty sure English is the only language that regularly uses the 'real' name of the country, all other languages I speak and know of call it a variation of Holland.
