The Official Brazil 2014 FIFA World Cup thread

[BennyCake]

must have heard wrong but did George Hamilton say that the Dutch have never been involved in a World Cup penalty shoutout? Pretty sure Brazil knocked them out on pens in 1998 semi final.

Yup. Was thinking that too.

In my opinion there should be some kind of rule that you can't win two games in a row on penalties. From the first minute that's what Costa Rica have been playing for. That's my opinion anyway. I don't like what Costa Rica are doing and I hope the Dutch can get a winner in the second half of extra time.

So how would you like this game to be decided if it stays 0-0?

The Netherlands should go through if it's 0-0.

It would force Costa Rica to play a bit. It's a shame to see a team in a World Cup Quarter-Final playing like this.

That Robben's a hateful bollix.

Thought he is actually going well tonight. No diving and the best player on the pitch.

I really hope Costa Rica win this.

I really hope Costa Rica win this.

I think the Dutch will win the penalties.

[gerrykeegan]

Me too, they are such underdogs and they have worked their nuts off

[laoislad]

No pressure on Tim Krul hey!!

[AZOffaly]

Gas to see the Costa Rican fans celebrating wildly to get to penalties

[gerrykeegan]

Krul has saved 2 out of 20 penos for Newcastle the other lad must be shit altogether

[Sea The Stars]

I think the QF's have been a real let-down and Costa Rica's performance here is not fitting for this occasion. I hope the Dutch win the penalties but the Costa Rican penalties in the Greece game were outstanding.

[Itchy]

Sligo rovers brought on a keeper like that in the fai cup final, think he saved a load of penos.

RTE panel forget Collins v Eubank.

This is all in the mind.

[JP]

Come on Costa Rica!!! They are a bit like Ireland under Trap a few years back.

[brokencrossbar1]

RTE panel forget Collins v Eubank.

This is all in the mind.

No Tony Quinn here though!!

[AZOffaly]

WTF is Krul at? Kick in the bollix is what he needs.
