Gunjack,

I am from Bosnia (Sarajevo), and live in AZ for a while now, but I always have a great time in Spain, and some dear friends live there.
Yes, ESPN is showing every game, and I am watching the games wherever is the biggest crowd in town, usually English pub "George & Dragon". Always a good crowd.

Ashraf, I like your take on the game Sunday

I would just like to add that Netherlands has the most fouls committed on this tournament (15 yellow cards) and Spain has the least (3). translation of this statistic is that Spaniards have the ball in their possession most of the time, and Dutch always have to "fight" for it. In case of a strict referee this might be a deciding factor in the game. In this match I think that Van Bommel and his style of play might be liability for the Dutch. I bet that referee knows about these stats, and they just "might" interfere with Dutch ruff play.


Germany - Uruguay match tomorrow, I think will go in favor of Uruguay. Main driver will be the desire of Uruguay to place itself in 3rd spot. Germans came to tournament wanting the first place, since that is gone, there is no real motivation for the win.

either way, I am glad that both teams Spain & Holland will have their first title.

this world cup is much more exciting than the last one in Germany, I think. So much unexpected is happening.
I am not a betting man on a sports but I would like to know the odds that places were offering on the result Argentina 0 - 4 Germany ? Must have been some crazy money.
I am so mad about Uruguay Ghana game. That should not count as a penalty, but as a goal and a red card. With the rules like this we are just encouraging dirty tricks. It just make you wonder why would not every player catch the ball with his hands and receive a penalty with red card. From Uruguay's point the consequences are worth the risk. Receive red card-who cares, because if the ball goes in, there is no next game anyway, Penalty, well that is waaaaaayyyyy better than a goal FOR SURE.
I think; you touch it with the hand on the way to goal, goal counts and you get red card. Let the team of the "handballer" weep and be sorry, like this we have the wrong team out of the competition.

Spain - Paraguay, what a show, crazy finish. Two penalties missed in a row did not happen since 1930 world cup, they say.

still think Spain is the "contender" for a cup, we'll see....... Torres is a bit of a worry.......hope he is going to redeem himself in the "moment of need" and score a goal ( that is his job, right?)

......... it is not that I have nothing against Holland (great football) but looks like they are due for correction/retracement.........we'll see, rally might continue
