Unless you are German. The dude is a star. Love the Spanish beat down.

Good player as long as you're winning. When you're down, he becomes a petulant child that throws one temper tantrum after the other. Very selfish as well.

Soccer is a communist plot - make everyone so poor that all they can afford for their children to play with is one deflated soccer ball that the entire neighborhood pitched in to buy for the kids.

The masses, bereft of hope, devolve to the heady business of hooliganism - Amerika has so much to look forward to

You've got your flashcards mixed up. You want the British Navy, imperialism and syphilis for this comment.

NO. 11 seed the Netherlands handles NO. 1 seed and defending WC Champion Spain.

Spain 1-5 Holland: Robin van Persie and Arjen Robben score twice as Dutch stun world champions in Salvador

" Three days in to this World Cup and already the champions have a weaker grip on their trophy. Spain lost the first game four years ago, too, but defeat by Switzerland in South Africa cannot compare psychologically to these stunning events in north-east Brazil.

Spain’s worst defeat since a 1963 reverse to Scotland, this was more than a setback. This was a humiliating, humbling capitulation, a defeat that asks as much about the mental fortitude of Vicente del Bosque’s team as it does their hapless defending." Fr. LINK
