Netherlands - Côte d'Ivoire

[woodface]

There's two teams in the world cup that I will default support against; the Netherlands and the USA. So today, it was the Netherlands and omg, I am thoroughly disgusted at how that game got played. Serious foul play omg. Just ugh and they weren't even losing. What struck me most was that this is the first game that I have heard the supporters respond negatively. With that I mean that they'd start to whistle or just have negative responses at some points against Côte d'Ivoire.

Bah. They shouldn't have won or at least, it should have been a tie.

But but but...what if the US has to play the Netherlands omg?

[woodface]

I KNOW! The hardship. I might be tempted to support the Netherlands as they're at least European too.

Elfenbeinküste was the better team, but Holland was just very lucky. For me as a dutchman, it was a great relief; the dutch haven't played really well so far and I expexted them to lose this one...

*snerks* *waves* You're alive!

And yeah, they were really lucky because I do think Ivoorkust deserved to get a second goal in. Some of those chances came really really close and Holland didn't do much in the second half as they seemed to be relying heavily on just defending .
