World Cup 2014

OMG! I’m back folks! DobbeoSavageo form Braaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazil again with the old news of the latest round of knock-out games.

Let’s kick off wi’ the Hollandaise saucians - what a game they were given by Mehico! The Mexicans showed their talent, desire and fire once more - and, as I predicted, fell foul of the Dutch meisters weaving their wondrous tapestry of deception. ‘Oh, you’re beating us - take this. Oh, and this. Bye bye.’ Mexico worked so hard for the win, and when sooooo close, a bizarrely great simple strike shot them down; and then, one of the players of the tournament did what he had to do when it mattered. Robben - why did Chelski let him leave? Fools. The penalty rescued the career of a player who was once heralded as the best in Europe but never lived up to it. Doodah van Sandwichio or whatever his name is - we all forget. So the Dutch progress relentlessly - but how far? Ooooh…the tension is enticing!

Costa Rica - OMG again! Save of the tournament - or close to! And another! Then another in extra time when 2 vs 5! And on 34 minutes of extra time spreads himself like butter to thwart the encroaching Greeks yet again! Unbelievable man of the match performance! But when the ten man Costa Ricans were fading on their feet in normal time, the Greeks struck yet again in added time! Holy Smoley! Do they ever submit? Hardly the most entertaining match of the tournament until extra time went into over-drive and the game went - literally - mental; but when the knock-out phase comes, the result is all that matters. And what a result. How many shoot-outs can one tournament endure? OMG! But if this was the only way the Costa Ricans were gonna get through, who can deny them after such a game and such a performance!

See ya’stomoz peeps for more footie excitement! Oh, my heart can’t take it!
