Wow, this has to be just brutal for Mexico

lame.

When he really got fault, he did not flop so he made sure he sold it next time.

The Dutch bandwagon will be getting even bigger now. Almost as bad as Heat fans, lol. 

[Goondal]

Wow, two of the three games have been amazing.  Go Costa Rica

[Toundra]

I feel bad for Mexico, the orange men stole that win..

I'm cheering for Germany and France outside US. Many Arsenal players in those 2 teams.

To be honest, it was all Netherlands after Dos Santos goal.

This is not a reason to cheat!

Dude, I'm Mexican and I believe we deserved to lose. Yeah, Robben flopped at the end but we played defense and tried to hold on the entire second half. So much for all that 'fearless' poo Herrera was preaching.

I didn't watch the entire game but it was disappointing to see the Mexicans boot it up field and stay on defense. They need to pass better, keep possession, and build up attacks. They played so well against Brazil and play conservative vs. the Dutch? The problem with playing defense is eventually you make a mistake. The heat and humidity is making guys do stupid things. I've seen so many guys loafing around exhausted with the game on the line. Not just today but all tournament.

 

The penalty was very disappointing. Clear flop. But it's typical Rafa Marquez. He's been imploding for as long as I can remember. There is no reason to stick your foot in there. Shame on him for thinking anything else could have happened. But the flopping culture won a great victory today. Floppers all over the world are validated in their tactics.
