Navas has kept crc alive and karnezis offered the goal to ruiz...

I m not very optimistic.....

Seeing santos complaining to the ref instead of preparing for the penalties makes me even less optimistic

Regardless of the final result, both teams deserve to go through (or neither, depending on your perspective)

Greece had more of the game, but Costa Rica fought valiantly with one man down
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

F@@k    we had the chances to win the game but we failed to score... we ve lost a great opportunity. Well deserved qualification for costa rica though. I can imagine what this means to them.


Well..... holland vs costa rica will be fun game to watch

  After the match Robben insisted the incident which won the game was a justified penalty, but admitted going to ground far too easily on one occasion in the first half.

"I must apologise," he told NOS. "The one [at the end] was a penalty, but the other one was a dive in the first half. I shouldn't be doing that."

Robben surely has that backwards...maybe the Dutch physios should get him on an IV quick.  Severe dehydration invariably results in mental confusion... ;)

does anyone know what would have happened it they had gone to sudden death penalty kicks with Costa Rica one man down. I thought the rule was if both sides kept scoring the team with one man down would lose by default, but I heard some suggestion on the broadcast that Greece had to reduce its penalty kick team to 10 because Costa Rica was a man down. Is that true?
