Reply With QuoteUruguay has had a great run but they are missing some big cogs (Suarez and Lugano), so I think that the Netherlands may be a bridge too far.
July 6 - Semi-Finals - Netherlands vs. Uruguay
Will the Dutch do the expected and make it to the final, or will they take Uruguay for granted?
On a side note, I can't believe the tournament is almost over. It feels like it just started last week or something...

No contest really (even with Lugano and Suarez).
Just another Denmark, Japan, Cameroon, Slovakia or any other World Cup Qualifying match.

I think this could be the first game where the Dutch explode. They've been consistent and played well but we haven't yet seen the total football. I think tomorrow could be it with Lugano out I've predicted a 3-1 Dutch win. Very excited for tommorrow!!!
7-0 Holland
It's still a game.I have been following the Dutch team every day via the various media and it seems that they are ready and even in a personal contact ssm with Uri's they play with in Holland.
I really don't see how they could loose and that is the prevailing feeling in Holland and the media.These guys are pros and now how to handle all potential assumptions and they are as ready as you can get.They have been there before and this time no more mistakes,just pure business.
I am joining many of my Dutch friends and since you all know they are known as the very best fans,this is also the case Tuesday .Nostalgia,memories,Orange,those blonds,although I like the brunettes better and that singing.Who needs SA,it is right here.
The score who cares,just that win and that amazing feeling to be in the final again.Had it twice before and these were some downers,this time it should be different.
I also have a radio show in Dutch strictly about soccer and can't wait to to talk about these amazing guys.
I use to know all Dutch players quite well but this time only Vandervaart I know.
I do know how organized and extreme pro's they are and having lived playing with the top it should all come together.
What an amazing show for Dutch soccer sofar.The whole world will be watching and admiring.There are many many Dutch fans accross the World.
I would be shaking in my boots having to face these guys.Anyway,you never know.

12th July > Part 2
Thanks Scifi,never saw this before and yes there were some tears here.Amazing party guys and girls,which I knew anyway.My claim to fame while living in Holland was that I organized all the various jazz and dance clubs in and around The Hague.,so I know them very well.
If they win it will be even bigger.I liked when Rinus Michels said that the real final was against the Germans.
Yes they are ready for another blast and I assume just not only in Amsterdam,maybe Rotterdam as well.
thanks again and I hope everybody will watch this ,Holland at it's very Orange best.
