Mexicans are probably like "Cooling break? ... is there a problem with the heat or something?"

You could see on the last Robben breakaway that he couldn't keep up. No option for Robben to centre, not that he would have anyway.

Seems like Netherlands caught the Mexicans by surprise with their complete chance of pace.

Time to jump on the flight back to Amsterdam Jono De Guzman. Oh no, you won't be joining the rest of the team? But if you live in Toronto, and play in England...

I like the dutch but I hope if they lose there is a jdg2 crying shot

Van Persie useless out there. Say what you want about Robben and his diving, he's tireless in attacking. Snjeider too may still have something in him yet today.

At least I am imagine VP is just happy his hair still looks good after all this heat...he may be able to get back to his stylist in Manchester sooner than later.

They are winning the ball when they press though, not a tactic I would choose......

Well, the Dutch have had numerous corners and some solid chances. Not much time left, they need one to squeak in.
