    Is it me or does the Spanish national anthem sound a bit like the Blackadder theme?

    Arguably the game of the group stages this one.

    Why is neither team wearing their normal colours
  • Schnieder might live to regret that but the Dutch are doing alright here.

    I'm not joking here, but Mark Lawrenson has been doing my head in since about 90 seconds in.

    Why does Diego keep getting booed?

    As he is Brazilian but chose to play for Spain due to having Spanish citizenship, basically. Both Spain and Brazil wanted him to play for them, and he did play for Brazil twice before deciding to play for Spain, so naturally Brazilian fans are bitter.

    I thought it was too initially, but after the replays I'm convinced Costa dived.

    Now that was a penalty.

    Not to sure about that, Costa put his foot onto the Dutch player's legs! whilst he was sliding.
  • Finally a high class game of footie!!!
  • In slow motion, it looks like the spaniard should have got sent off for stamping.

    And, we complain about refs

    Absolutely superb. Brilliant pass & what a header. Casillas was waiting for that to come down and a shot to come in. Wonderful from van Persie!

    I can't remember a better header than that? (Rufus aside).

    Jesus wept, straight into the all time list.
