Now, who was it that said the Netherlands were pretty sh!te?
Only 4-0 up after 55 minutes against Sweden, and pretty devastating in attack.

I said over on the CC football thread I fancied them for the SF. Premier League influence of so many players, pace and power with direct attacking the box. Very difficult to defend against, similar to how England were against Croatia.

Water breaks in an aircon stadium are stupid, they impact the game momentum way too much. Any why on earth don't they stop the match clock?

Everyone knows they are stupid and just being allowed because of TV advert money, and probable hidden backhanders, but what do you expect from the US?

Even the BBC have given up and are now referring to the periods before and after hydration as 'quarters'. They were slightly taking the piss, obvs.
