One positive about Spain winning (or more generally about the end of the WC) is that I'm not going to be bombarded with 'Vamos' continually.  It's all over here and all over fb and it's a right pain in the arse.
 
It is a beautiful language, my friend.

Robben didn't get the foul because there wasn't a shirt pull, and he stayed on his feet (for the first time in his f**king life) and carried on, made the mistake and San Iker picked the ball up, and then he started whinging. You got the advantage, and then took too many touches. Your fault, not Puyol's or Webb's. So cry me a river. Never mind the fact that he should have been sent off after that. Kicking the ball away. But that save from Casillas... I was going crazy, it looked like it was going to be a goal for sure. But what a save. What a player. What a man. Seen the video of him giving his girlfriend a big kiss? Hahahaha.
 
My head hurts... But lucky for the rest of the world I have to drive later, so I can't start drinking again! Vamos!

Feel sorry for the Dutch .  Spain took "Diving Lessons"  from Italy to win the Cup !! More Cynical play, oranje forever !!!!!!! 
 
Ah f**k off. "Diving lessons"? When a team goes into the game, a final no less, with the only intention of kicking the sh*t out of the opposition like that, it is embarassing. For the country, for the team and for football. It makes me so angry. To beat Spain, you have to kick Spain. But not so horribly and cynically. The Dutch were so lucky to finish with only 10 men.
 
And where is all this hatred for Puyol come from? Are you seriously comparing him to van Bommel? Go watch the Germany game. He doesn't just kick lumps out of players as the only way he can defend. Van Bommel is simply a thug. And yeah, Robben had his arm around him to get in front of him.

Did you see where Puyol's legs went? And advantages don't clear cards!

And Puyol is a dirty cheat, not just at this world cup, but for Barcelona. Falls over everytime he's tackled.

Hmm, not as clear-cut as that. Watch the replay, and it's actually Robben who starts pulling first - his arm comes accross Puyol's shoulder and chest while Puyol was still in front, and this allows Robben to get in front and to the ball. Puyol then responds in kind (although probably for half a second longer) when the roles ares reversed, and most refs let play continue in those kind of situations.

Thought Webb was desperately trying not to be the most influential man on the pitch, and this ultimately helped the Dutch more, as they were testing his resolve in this respect much more often. To be honest though, it was a very difficult game to officiate, Webb was in a fairly unenviable position.

Anyway, happy that Spain won, been saying that it's theirs to lose for a long time now, so glad they didn't.
