Watched the second half. Son rooted for Brazil, me for the States. I love an underdog.

Used to watch Donovan play sometimes, make the quick trip to San Jose.

So did I, big part of the 2nd half... Brazil just came back to 2-2 now...

Wasn't the best Top Gear, although Stephen Fry's GRINDR was kinda funny... Wonder if there's a hetero version

IT'S 2-0!!! And I know, you don't like soccer, but being 2-0 in the lead against BRAZIL!!!!! is a major something in the rest of the world!!!!

Erm... they (you)  are even in the finals! That was last Wednesday, finals are now!

It's the Finals, the US LEAD with 1-0 against BRAZIL! (But a long way to go....) 70 minutes or so.

I was working a block and a half from where the usa spain game was being played.   I couldn't believe they were playing a major game in a park in the middle of chinatown.  a client told me when he was leaving he was going over there.   when I heard the loud cheers I believed it.

 I see we rolled our way into the Semis... Dios mio, man!!! Spain is bush league psyche-out stuff. Laughable, man - ha ha! Wooo! You got a date Wednesday, baby!

Espana are very practised at Hoogmoed

That's why they are so good at vallen.

Goed spel wordt goed beloond. Spanje heeft wel vaker rare dingen gedaan tijdens grote toernooien, maar het is niet iets wat je verwacht van de FIFA # 1 (Had de #2 ook niet zo hoog verwacht)

Inderdaad! Ik geloof er ook erg in, bij sporten hoort bescheidenheid en voorzichtigheid. Bij voetbal bestaan er geen kleine landen meer.

that was astonishing!!..espana were on a 35 game unbeaten streak...
and it was not like it was a dodgy win, usa played well.
having already lost 3-0 to brazil you would not hold much hope in the final..
but spain are ranked above brazil so you never know.,
well done!

I actually thought wrong, it is South Africa in stead of Italy... So, logically speaking it will be Brazil... But what is logical?

6 minutes to go, final is against South Africa or Brazil...

EDIT: Spain actually spoke about the finals already, as we say in Holland "Hoogmoed Komt Voor De Val"
