World Cup 2010 South Africa: 2 Down! 2 to go!

Another great performance from the Dutch as they defeated the most anticipated team to win the World Cup - Brazil! I feel so sorry for Brazil, I guess they never thought of losing to the Netherlands, since they were the first one who scored in the match, but come on the 2nd half an own goal from Brazil and a finishing score from Robben. This World Cup 2010 changes a lot of mind set from people across the globe, well I am one of them and that even a small country can become a Champion. This would be a historic match between The Netherlands and Uruguay who just recently won the match with Ghana (Great shot from Diego Forlan!) - another loss from the cape of good hope, which was the only African nation who pass the quarterfinal stage, I guess it was not yet the time for Ghana to be in the semi-finals, although  they really have the edge because they were the one who controlled the match up to the last minute of extra time, but unluckily the penalty kick of Gyan was an indication that it's not for them. It ended with a 4-2 penalty shoot-out.

A good comeback from Uruguay - 40 years of waiting. To the Netherlands you're awesome!
