"Kick it to the left, to the left, come one i dare you kick it to the left" Something along the lines to try to try to play some psychology.

Krul tried to talk to the kicker prior to the kick, that is not allowed. That is why the ref stop it.

Yeah, shame it is no red card, because then Brazil's defense would be complete shit for an entire game again and the Dutch would score, score and score.

It's 100% a red card. And it's not a penalty either, the foul happened outside the box

Algiers referee, go back to Africa. Can't believe they let some second rate clown do this match.

Yellow card plenty. It wasn't that much of a grab. Great performance by Robben, though. He's the Tom Hanks of soccer.

The audience's spirit surely isn't broken yet, that was loud...

It's a red by default, last defender denying a clear chance of a goal, doesn't matter how severe the foul is.

He was last defender denying a clear goal scoring opportunity. Automatic red card. And since the initial contact was outside the box, then it should have been a free kick there and not a penalty.

Gentlemen, I bow to your knowledge and thank you for the correction. Robben still played it up, though.

Haha, Robben gets carded for being fouled and tripping the Brazilian player as he goes down. Ref worst man on the pitch. Can only hope he'll send Robben off with a yellow red for diving when he didn't actually dive

I feel bad for the Netherlands. No real joy if they win, and if they lose to Brazil...
Winning Bronze in the world cup is no small feat, they'll be happy enough.

They'll be happier than Argentina will be tomorrow.

Why does this Dutch keeper in particular keep dicking around with the ball for so long when an opposing player is in his face? I feel like every other keeper I've seen sends it across the field a lot quicker with no chance of anything going wrong.

Really small/insignificant observation...but wtf? Like one stupid mistake would be lifetime humiliation.

Yep, this is going to get ugly. Hope the riot police are on standby.

ps, keepers do that to draw the attacker in, which puts them more out of position and make them offside straight away, so they have to run back. Helps to prevent a counter attack coming straight back since he miss kicks or someone loses the ball .

This game just continues where Germany left. No markings, no defense, just kick and lose.

And it was offside. Another failure by the referees.

Even a blind man can score in this game
