Offside, but really who cares… (Edit: Well aside from the fact that it means that both goals came from refereeing errors (though not giving a red card is totally understandabl, even though it probably was red, I think 95% of refs wouldn’t have given one at that point of the game))

I feel like it’s showing that Holland complaining about how bronze match doesn’t matter was them just being sore losers as usual. Brazil, on the other hand, their game really looks like they don’t care Whether it’s because they really don’t care of some other reason…

Sure, but I’m really tired of how they whine after every loss That’s one of the biggest reasons why I really dislike this current Holland - their attitude is all wrong, too many of them lack certain aspects of sportsmanship expected of adult professionals. I’d love to like Holland, but with the current players, I just can’t (and where’s Emmanuelsson? He was the only one I liked last time).

But it’s true that the 3rd place match is purely for the audience.

Its WWE it surely is for audience.

Looks like you cant touch Robben anywhere, he will slip into penalty area and claim
a penalty. Other goal was offside.

You know, there really should be Ronaldinho in the head as a kind of game building striker (a false 9, is it?). Fred and Jo do nothing anyways, and so the lack of speed that Ronaldinho nowadays probably has wouldn’t matter, but instead they’d have amazing game building skill up there, a great shooter, a great 1-on-1 player and a great penalty shot. Brazil desperately needs someone there who can actually hold the ball, pass intelligently, make space, do something unexpected. Right now they’re just without any ideas and almost always doing the expected, even doing the wrong passes. You know.

And Lucas Moura instead of Hulk.

I mean, aside from Neymar (who was clearly even more important than everyone realized - everyone knew he’s important, but apparently he was the Maradona to Brazil), who do they have who’s a real goal-scorer, or a real game-builder?

Brazil is being robbed big time…

Wow worst referee of the tournament so far.

Right. Though I thought I heard Kaka was a bit injured or something? But I probably just misheard. (Still, could’ve opted for someone instead of Jo since it was Fred who did the scoring in the Conf. Cup. Then again, it’s clear now that Scolari isn’t a great tactician or one for any new ideas). Anyways, that’s exactly what I meant, there’s no one in the team, but a few people who were left out

One moment when Brazil seemed to get an idea, some nice passes, but that blew off again.

I wonder why Holland isn’t playing that third goalie. He’s the only one in the team who hasn’t gotten any playtime. Would’ve sounded like the fair thing to do (after all, Brazil has a lot of the low-playtime players in, though Holland has the top lineup…) Besides, it’d be pretty cool to have everyone been on the field. And since the bronze doesn’t matter

Great, Oscar gets a card for filming, the next moment the defender is down because he injured his knee in his tackle Great refereeing again…

(Edit): Oh great, Hulk in… Anyone feel like there goes the last hope for Brazil? I do not get why the Finnish commentators are always so excited about him when he does nothing except lose the ball over and over again.

That is basically the big problem with Brazil! 
Someone to make them play instead of running around all over the place

Edit: and that’s 3-0… Another humiliation!

Don’t know about him but Goalkeepr was complete dud, no idea where to
jump, shit awareness and reflexes.

Holland’s Blue kit was awesome.

Tommorow Messi has to show his best of best or bust.

Saw preshow hype Adidas will hit its target 2 billion something if Germany wins.
The whole Business layer above the game at at lower level makes it look like some
business entertainment and not sport. So unlike Tennis

Also hardcore Stats favoring Germany.
