              Bugger. The Dutch were so close (something I didn't expect). One penalty in the shoot out is the difference.

                He's a good GK but neither were great penalty attempts.

                I hope Argentina goes all the way now.

                  Dutch can only blame themselves. Right on top get the equalising goal then back to the original tactics.

                    That was a pen all day - when someone chops back and you leave your foot there.

                    Fantastic free kick routine to pull off in the last chance saloon.

                    Given who the Dutch had on the field they should have carried on lumping it forward and pinned Argentina back - deserved to lose before pens given the chances that Argentina had.

                        You’re dreaming. That’s the kind of thing that turns people off soccer. He was barely touched.

                        Really hope Croatia knock them out after that the excessive diving.

                          I'd be happy if France won, but prefer Messi over CR7.

                              I thought the gamesmanship during the penalties was shit from both sides. Holding onto the ball, sledging, pretty poor look but hardly unexpected from todays soccer players

                                  Really? You've not watched much of the game then have you? Every professional would have gone down at that point from any nation. Lord Harry Kane is a master of it.

                                    Just because they would all do it doesn't mean that it doesn't turn people off the game. Sport shouldn't be about play acting.

                                        The argentinians as a whole were worse than normal and regardless dives like that are rarely given as penalties. Huge mistake from ref. And it is a blight in the game.

                                          The Spanish ref was poor and shouldn't get another game this WC. Oliver, the English ref, didn't give Brazil an endless amount of free kicks when there was little or NO contact.
