Nothing is set into stone, but it will probably be a massacre.

Referee should have erred on the side of caution in the one. Robben put in a theater performance, dropping like he was shot.
I'm sad for Mexico, they put in a great fight and it's a shame referee didn't allow extra time to be played. Dutchies would have most likely scored in extra time, but it would have been more sporting.
I'm glad Greece is out, for the most part they're boring as hell.
Not sure if he made a dive, he is small and doesn't weight anything, it looked like it but I'm not sure really. We should have gotten a penalty in the first round so I guess it balances out when it comes to fairness if it was intentional. Robben isn't a very sportive player he will absolutily grab the opertunity if he sees it.
Would like it if you do, I like our southern neighbours but I also like disliking them. This tournament is over there is nothing in the way of total Dutch domination. The awesome keeper of Costa Rica got a yellow one so he in unlikely to play, so there is nothing that gives them a reasonable chance against our offence. Brazil isn't going to be a problem either, we can laugh away the rest. The Netherlands is going to win.
Watching the game (Dutch vs Mexico) it looked like the right call; in the replays from different angles, it was pure Hollywood.
Robben gambled and it worked; sucks but it's part of the game.

Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.
A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?
Way to go neighbours, that was tense
14 chances in 1000.....better than I had feared.
Answer for the USNT is the same as for all the teams....one game at a time.
Belgium has us 4-1 over the last five meetings? How relevant is this given current rosters?
"The only way that has ever been discovered to have a lot of people cooperate together voluntarily is through the free market. And that's why it's so essential to preserving individual freedom.” -- Milton Friedman
"The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule." -- H. L. Mencken
Belgium is rated better than they should be. The reason for that is probably that for the first time in a decade or two they have a team that doesn't suck. They have one really good player, a few more good players and the rest is mediocre to bad.
Americans have a fighting chance.
