    Game on finally. The Dutch were so bored and comfortable leading 2-0 that they started trying to set up the Americans to score, which they finally did.

    2-1 with maybe 20 mins left

    The Dutch I guess really like the comfort and boredom of a two goal lead, 3-1, which came easily and quickly. We will see if they get bored again and try and set up another USA goal.

    Argies vs Aussies sounds like an easy Argie win, especially with Messi in good form, but I just dont think this is a good Argie team. On paper it looks like a clear Argie win, but I like an upset for this. 1-1 and Aussies on PKs.

    I thought the Dutch won this easily, yes the USA showed a few signs of life and had some decent spells, but they never looked dangerous. Interesting that Van Gaal is not going with deLigt at the back. Initially I thought he was a really good defender,
    but watching him for bayern regularly or semi regularly, he just gives away so many fouls.

    But Dutch are through and maybe they can be the new team to win the WC? I like their chances vs Argies or Aussies.

    You were off by one goal (3-1 Netherlands), and way off about the time! You said 3 PM, but the game was already over at least 2 hours ago! (I had assumed that you meant 3 PM YOUR time, not 3 PM Qatar time!)

    Why did you give 3 PM as the kick off time?

    I will say that this match actually sounds like they are real football fans that are actually from the countries playing.
