I know we've had this discussion already but Robben is looking VERY sharp.

Costa Rica should have had a penalty. Not a single team I've wanted to win has yet.

Would love them to do the Dutch.

Does anyone else look at Louis van Gaal and see a bit of Iain Dowie, or have I just drunk too much red wine tonight?

Also, did you know his real name (not Dowie's) is Aloysius Paulus Maria van Gaal. Are there any other famous Aloysiuses in football?

The Dutch bench look like a bunch of accountants with the suits and notepads.

Sorry lads but the Dutch are far better than CR....it is just one of those days when they can't score it seems - to suggest otherwise is silly......try watching with the commentary off like I do.. :wink:
