Never expected the free-flowing and freely scoring Dutch to have played out 120 minutes of soccer without scoring even once, but it happened in this last Round of 8 match. |
But still...it was the best & most entertaining match of WC'2014 so far, IMO.
I think it's the first time the Dutch won a penalty shoot out in a WC match...so may be this time the Luck will be on their side after all these sad years and I won't mind to see them win it this time...though Germany comes close next to them but Netherlands have maintained the most solid, fast & clinical performances in this tournament so far. They deserve the title most, IMO.
And although both the team make it to the semi finals but I'm still pretty much frustrated with Brazil & Argentina...mainly the way they have played in this WC so far. If BRA or ARG somehow wins the trophy on Jul. 14 then it'll be a disgrace for the good, fast & entertaining football, IMO.
