WC 2014 Semi Final 2: Argies v Netherlands

by Brum Royal » 09 Jul 2014 09:10

Surprised this hasn't been done already, obviously everyone getting a bit caught up in the Brazil farce from last night.

I'm backing the Dutch tonight, should be a good game (they usually are between these two), but I'm going for a 2-1 Dutch win in 90 mins.

After last night, I predict the complete opposite: Argentina will scrape through after a frustrating game without enough yellow cards.

Desperately want the Dutch to win, but I think the Argies will nick it.

You watched the game last night? I thought you said you'd never ever watch another game contested by a German team because they bore you to tears, or something long those lines.

Want the Dutch to win ofcourse. Argentina are beatable if they can keep Messi quiet.

Isn't the term 'Argies' racist?

There's no history, going back decades, of it being used to insult and abuse the Argentinian community in Britain.

So no.

Thanks for clearing that up. I thought the over-sensitive brigade might deem it as racist.

The Dutch king is married to an Argentine, apparently they will not be at the match.
