you have to admit....Argentina didn't give them any chances to shoot at goal...their defense was really good
Reminded me of my wife's approach to IT. Keep doing the same thing again and again and somehow expect the result to be different

The quarter-finals have been rather disappointing.

This game was a yawn

Germany vs France was pedestrian.

Brazil vs Colombia was immemorable apart from the spot kick.

Where is the passion and hunger of the Chileans, the Mexicans and the USA.

Am neutral for the next match. Both teams have never won the cup before. Thinking Netherlands will win.

Hope its better match than this one
Hope they carry on and win the cup...
When two South American sides play each other the games are quicker and more entertaining...the European sides have less urgency :p

Belgium showed no urgency though. They were behind FFS.
Europeans *shrugs*
Seriously though...Barnes on Supersport sums it up quite rightly....Belgium just didn't have the same team composure as displayed against the USA....and they never looked like they wanted to score. How many shots at goal did they have in their previous game against the Yanks? A crap load

Should rather just have spent the time drinking with your bro. Colossal waste of time that argument.

It's all about composure son...earlier I got frustrated for the very last time with my Experia....stopped in the driveway, got out and snapped the phone in half with my hands(took sim and mem. card out first)...then calmly walked in the house, kissed my SO and asked what we're doing for supper.
Composure....remember this ;):p

Doubt that would ever happen in my lifetime (Not joking!) cos we are not very close. It's been like that ever since he moved to high school back in the days. We only speak to each other when it's really necessary. I totally regret asking him for his opinion on the benefits of unshaped capped ADSL.

Back to topic: Courtois (Belgian goalkeeper) was so awesome in the 2nd half. He saved that shot from Messi just before the game ended.
