I have a feeling that this will be a closer game than what most people expect. I still think Holland goes through 2-1, but remember the Russians are starting to play their best football at the right time.

Have to give credit to the one person who voted for Russia. It just proves that in these types of competitions getting hot at the right time outweighs talent and country reputation in the tournament (i.e. Greece 2004).

I also voted for Russia ...

after the game had ended .. :la: :LOL: ...

What a game and what a win though. I suddenly don't feel so bad about losing to Russia in the group stage. Congrats to the Russians!

well, that's what I call an honest and genuine person.. :tup: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

but seriously seeing how they played, how Hiddink -- off the field -- and Arshavin orchestrated the team and how many glorious chances they missed against the team that played the best football in the tournament so far, it was not well, it was very very very well-deserved..

the big thing about them, though, is talking FM-CM wise all the team's finishing ratings are below 5 out of 20.. :LOL:

i hope they go on to win it in the end.. they do deserve it..

PS: i also do hope it's not going to be another of those f***n boring defensive crap finals (luckily there's no France, but there's still Italy who always play a semi-final at least when they get out of the groups, and Germany who played beautiful football at the WC under Klinsmann but reverted back to their bully play in this campaign again)...

TURKIYE v RASSIYA for the final.. :tup: :tup: :tup: (though i don't know how we'll make it with 14 available players, 2 of whom are GKs) <_<
