I love the Dutch team, but I hope Costa Rica manage the impossible and make it to the semi finals.

Van Gaal will either be praised to high heavens or completely lambasted for that decision to swap keepers

If the final is Brazil v Argentina I will be annoyed.
If the final is Germany v Netherlands I will watch it completely enraptured.

God I love the world cup.

Man U fans will be getting all excitable about LVG now.

The frenetic no holds barred action once Costa Rica got bored of parking the bus was great! It's a good job Brazil and Argentina haven't exactly set the tournament alight, we may still have that 1974 rematch yet.

Disappointed Djokovic won, especially after such a shameless display of gamesmanship in the last set. The crowd didn't sound too pleased either, very subdued compared to usually. I think Roger got a bigger cheer than Novak did!

Roger has always been adored by the Wimbledon crowd, nearly as much as Sue's adoration!

Not quite, you don't hear them all having an orgasm every time he wins a point

That was a classy runner's up speech though, just shows why he's still so loved.

So does this mean Serbia has won Wimbledon or does Tennis not work that way?

I used to think the winners of the World Cup got to host the next contest (which would probably have bankrupted Brazil long ago)

That has me thinking, are there any other international competitions bar Eurovision where the winning nation gets to host the following year?

None that spring to mind, straight away.

Another reason Eurovision is so special. Where else would places like Luxembourg get to showcase themselves on the world stage. 5 times!

He really is handsome!

I've never found him smug, but I do see how some people do.

I've warmed more to Fed now he's not dominant and with the help of the hilarious @PseudoFed twitter account.
