He looks at Modric and simply hits him in the face. If that's not red, I don't know what it is.

Cesar is late to the cross, loses aerial battle and pummels into Olic.

Seriously. This ref.
 
brazilians shouldn't thanks to God,they should thanks a japanese... and a reason why Oscar played so well on the right wing is because Vrsaljko(croatian left beck) is right footer and this is his first game on the left back and Oscar just run to the line on his stronger foot and cross...Pranjić and Strinić(first and second cro left backs) got injured in pre world cup games

Wow, that ref doesn't deserve to be in charge of another game.

Brazilian pen in which Fred clearly dived
Clear red card offence on Modric by Neymar
Foul wrongly given because Julio Cesar is a keeper out of his depth flapping at everything coming his way

Bet it sucks to be a Croatia fan right about now.
 
I suspect there's going to be a lot of talking points during the World Cup. And quite a lot of those points will not be good ones

I'm a bit pessimistic about this match, as a dutch guy. Holland will play 5-3-2 and I'm not sure if it will work out. For example Robben as a striker instead on the wings, of course he has class but it's not his natural position. I think the match will start by 10-20 minutes of high pressing from Holland and then they'll get tired and Spain will play their own game. I hope it's gonna be 1-1 but I'm afraid it's gonna be a boring match with alot of fouls and huge score for Spain.

I've got Holland down as the disappointment of the tournament, just don't see their team achieving much this year

To be honest, Holland often over-achieve, IMO.. I mean, on paper they aren't on a par with Brazil, Spain, Germany etc. but often get to the latter stages of competitions. Fair play to them.

Its the defence, it looks very ordinary. perhaps the reason Van Gaal is going with the 5 at the back
 
Thought dos santos looked lively, cannot wait to see this game coming up tho and chile later love the World Cup!
 
****** **** the highlight of this World Cup so far is the shocking officials.... hope Spain vs Netherlands providers a cracking game for the RIGHT reasons.
 
I only saw the first half and smatterings of the second half because we were having a barbeque, but dos Santos was denied two clear goals in the fist half by poor decision making from the officials again. I really hope this trend doesn't continue throughout the competition, otherwise it won't matter how good the football is, it will be marred by these officials.
 
Holland should be 1-0 up after that poor finish by Snjieder, and god knows why De Guzman is starting ahead of Fer or Classie.
 
De Jong with a typical 'De Jong' like challenge but no surprise Busquets is up quickly after going down in a heap.
