Argentina in normal time.

Well my quarter finals acca was Brazil v Colombia both teams to score, and Germany, Argentina and Holland to qualify. Cha-ching.

For the semi's I have Germany in 90 minutes and Argentina to qualify.

There's now another photo going round of that old Brazilian man passing his trophy on to a Germany fan with a smile. This is what I love about the World Cup man, brings people together. You'd never see something like that in club football, this is just so much more welcoming and full of love for the game instead of love for one team.

Saw that. If that were club football an Arsenal fan would have sharpened the trophy and stuck it through a Man U fans chest. Getting hyped up for the game, I truly believe this will be a hard fought game full of technical skill and lots of great scoring chances.

GOOOOAAALLLL Van Persie!!!! Don't mind me just getting warmed up.

Still hard to call at halftime. Think Argentina have been the better team.

I would agree they've been better. They have held possession better certainly. Netherlands usually starts out a little better. Hopefully they open it up in the second 45 and push the envelope. Would at least make for an exciting game.

Tense tbh.

No chance we are keeping hold of Vlaar btw, he's been excellent again. Whoever decided to let Vlaar and Delph enter the last year of their contracts ought to be ashamed of themselves.

Argentina are trying to win the game. Dutch aren't arsed.

Nearly shat myself there by the way.

Yeah I bit my tongue. Some tackle!
