The better team won.
But we came fucking close for a moment there.
Yeh De Jong's foul was really bad and probably should've been sent off, and this is coming from a Man City supporter! It wasn't the most exciting game, but the better team won in the end. Bien hecho España.
Spain deserved the win. The dutch were out there trying to STOP the spanish from playing and not playing themselves, whereas the spanish's tactics were you play nice football to win the game.
The dutch were seriously lucky. Atleast two maybe three of them should have been sent off and it would have been a completly different match.
I sure hope torres is alright though :ohdear:

What is it with people claiming that the Spanish played fair and nice? Constantly diving (and succeeding in doing so) comes across as neither fair nor nice.
Though I have to agree that De Jong should've been sent off for that chest kick. Even if it wasn't deliberate (which it probably wasn't if he is smart enough), that's still dangerous play.
[b]Get over it. You played worse, and it's your butthurtness speaking.[/b]
Just accept that Spain won.
[QUOTE=Big Bang;23285636]Worst referee I've ever seen. I've never seen someone do bad calls for 120 minutes.
Congratulations to Spain, I guess. Seems like I'll have some paella today. Now let's just hope that Venezuela makes it for the next World Cup in Brazil.
Many Spanish sayings are like that. It's the essential equivalent of "fuck yes". There's for example one that I love that is "me cago en la leche" which is basically the same thing than "god damn it".[/QUOTE]
Does 'me cago en la leche' mean 'i shit in the milk'? Just a guess but that's a pretty awesome way of saying fuck yes
This is genious.

Description for the english:
[sp]The screen seemed to die at the exact moment half-time ended and the match was about to begin. It was actually a commercial for an insurance company during the commercial break. [/sp] :v:
Spoiler tagged so it doesn't ruin the joke.
This company has more commercials [url=http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=even+apeldoorn+bellen&aq=f]here[/url], most of which are hilarious.
I think the referees were paid to make spain win since the 1/8 . Anyway...
YES SPAIN
Winning me £30
I won €160. Viva Espana!
FUCKING spain!
Ah the joys of having a Spanish girlfriend, an excuse to support the winning team. I'm also 1/4 Dutch so didn't do so bad. I'll keep quiet about the English side of me though!
But great reffing from us Brits though, managed the keep their cool when there were some bad tackles and didn't get influenced by any of the players protesting their 'innocence'. Was a good game and the best team definitley won, I'd give anything to be in Spain tonight for the celebrations.

Reffing is the closest the English will come to a World Cup final.
And even that they'll fuck up.
I do not watch football.
But hot damn, they were going apeshit!
Guys are doing barrel rolls for no reasons. Wimps.
But when that guy got kicked in the chest. Wow. And when that guy kicked the goalie? Oh man.
