Actually think Murphy has a point, in that if CR had scored it would bring the game to life and the Dutch would really hammer them...

ooo a free kick....missed by a mile!

Hasn't got the Robben touch.

Or Costa Rica would go even more defensive and it'd be harder.

A Netherlands goal though might bring Costa Rica out.

A video of all the good free kicks in this world cup would be less than five minutes, much less. .

Another not entertaining match

I don't get it. Both teams too scared to go behind

Why would anyone want to play for a 0 - 0 draw, force extra time?

Who wants the lottery of penalties?

Total crap... what happened to the Holland that beat Spain 5 - 1

Good point, and only way to keep the out the Dutch is not to score., but would rather they did(score), for the sake of the game.

Costa Rica are defending better then Spain.

The VT of the best goals was only a minute or so.

Because Spain, Chile and Australia were all idiots who played a we attack you attack match. No defensive nuance whatsoever, which is great for the neutral no doubt.

But somebody has finally worked out that if you don't pile everyone forward against the Dutch and have some defensive capabilities, you can make them look ordinary.

You have to tell it like it is

Useless referees! Why do they assume that if a player goes down, that he must have been fouled by the nearest player?! Haven't they watched football in their lives?!

Holland need to complain about that ref, the booking and the Costa Rican player who cheated there!

Is Van Persie doing an Inzaghi impression tonight?

RVP has been caught offside far too many times for a player of his quality...

CR 19 in pain on ground, ( after WC will check the players' names)

I'm surprised he hasn't been substituted.

Gamboa

Why didn't he shoot?

Lineker: "How do you think the players will be feeling after those first 45 minutes?"

If someone asks a stupid question, they deserve that answer! Apologies for my lack of multiquoting skills.

The longer it goes on like this the better the chances of Costa Rica sneaking a goal ... and of me losing the will to live.

That magic spray definitely did the trick!

Dutch free kick..but it was over

Terrific pace it was, (but needed a more thought out one)

Gamboa(sp?) down

But not for long; the poor fella can't go on.

Off he goes from the game on stretcher...poor lad
