    I despise marquez. The fact that he was the cause of mexico failing makes me happy. I got autocorrected from pk.

    Wow what a devastating way to lose for Mexico.

    This applies to every sport. Once you get a lead and just start playing defensive ball, high probability bad things will happen.

    Mexico should have kept the same aggressiveness to counter the Netherlands' aggression.

    Feel bad for Ochoa, a superb goalie.

    Why was Van Persie taken out? Injury?

    He was tired. He could barely walk. And huntelaar is our pinch hitter.

    Wow so happy. See ace i was right with my optimism.

    It was a flop by robben. But i do not mind. He should have a penalty in the first half.

    Swoly and other mexican fans. I feel for you. You deserved the win. Ochoa is amazing. The only mistake you made was not respondinh to our changing game plans. You played a great game. And have my respect.

    Van gaal made great in game changes. He switched tactic a couple of times when we were already trailing. Huntelaar as our supersub.

    I am so happy.

    No. Nothing will ever surpass that moment (except for a championship)

    He was flopping and diving a lot in the second half so it is understandable. That one play where he flopped twice in succession was really bad.

    However, I am ok with the penalty awarded (even though Robben flopped and the contact was minimum) because Holland should have had a penalty in the first half.

    Wow, that flop is pretty bad on the replay. Kinda makes me want to root against Holland moving forward. Terrible that it got called so late in the match.

    It is magnified in big games because what happens is the team that is down plays with far more desperation...and it seems to happen in every single sport.
