brazil to win on extra time I reckon. I told my friend to bet on Paraguay to beat japan after the 90', and won him some money.
I couldn't bet myself, damn restraning order.

Also must consider which side Germany will be able to beat with greater ease.  You'd think the Netherlands but hard to say.

Would be beautiful payback for Germany to beat Brazil after the heartbreak of 02, though a win over their traditional rivals would also be sweet.

Would be nice for the Netherlands to get one back after the heartbreak of '98 too!

Nederland kom op!

Also I hope Holland's answer to Wayne Rooney, RVP, sorts his sh*t out...or get him off. Hate to say it but he seams to have an ego that exceeds his footballing ability....and we saw how the egos ruined England.

Fuck this stupid game

My Opa and Oma are 88 and 87, have watched every game live and will be up early tomorrow morning. Pretty solid effort. Opa played for Ajax and Holland at age group level...Oranje blood

this and Germ v Arg both worthy of a final

but dutch squad engaged on traditional dutch squad squabbling

neither side has captured me yet

dutch tactically adept, brazilians flashes of skill but moments of individual w**kery

I'll decide as the game goes on

Am conflicted.

Would like Brazil to win but would very much like to see a Holland - German final (with the Dutch stomping their clogs over Germany).

I've taken a Uruguay win with Dutch win in extra time double
as much for the odds as any real confidence

Holland must score first to win
that annoying commentator was comparing these guys to '74 side
inappropriate IMO
paradoxically this team can still win the Cup

Far too easy. Simply beautiful ball from Melo. 1-0 Brazil.

Can see Netherlands coming back at this point in time. Maybe 1-1 by end of 1st half..

Brazil are looking very comfy here even at just 1-0. The Dutch haven't even got going yet.

Wow. Brazil is turning it on! That would have been possibly the goal of the tourny, given the lead up play.

Think Robben's been sampling one too many famous Dutch hash Brownies

Not the first time the Dutch have lost the ball through a lack of options coming forward. Robben's completely wrapped up.

1-0 at half time. Brazil cruising. The Dutch defence has been all at sea at times. Robben is supposed to be the Netherlands' most dangerous player, yet he does the same sh*t every time he's on the ball, bet that's hard to defend against 

Three for me, and two for them.

That was intense. Can't recall seeing a Brazil side so aggressive in a long long time. The ref is doing a good job under the circumstances but the bodies are flying left, right and centre - he's only just got the game under control.
 
2nd half should be a cracker.
