Argentina on to the 2014 World Cup Finals on Sunday

So it's 0-0 at full time but Argentina 4, Netherlands 2 on penalties. What a way to lose, eh? The other semi-final played yesterday was won by Germany - 7 goals to 1 (Brazil).


A look at the scoreline..

After 62 games, we have now come to the final two games. Brazil and Netherlands will play for third placing on Saturday.

The Finals between Germany and Argentina will be played on Sunday an hour earlier than the usual timing. Do take note if you don't want to miss any part of it.

Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy! Brazil 1 - Germany 7 (World Cup semi-finals)

Woh! What a semi-final defeat for the Brazilian team in the 2014 World Cup semi-finals!

Brazil 1 - Germany 7


The goals..

Brazil's coach, Scolari: The Worst Day of My Life..

While Germany's Joachim Low says We need to remain humble.

Will we see another similar upset in today's match or rather tomorrow's match? Argentina vs Netherlands next.

Who are you rooting for?

World Cup - Semi-finals

If you've been following the World Cup, chances are you'd be staying up or getting up (as in the case for Malaysians) to watch the next match.

Only four teams left, two from Europe (Germany and Netherlands; and two from South America, Brazil and Argentina). Did you get the right underwear? Or going out to get all four this time?

Brazil plays Germany deciding who gets into the final. (Update: Result here..)


And Argentina plays Netherlands the following day.

Alright, let's work backwards a little..

Quarterfinals..

Another Fun Day of World Cup..

If you have not noticed, Google is working overtime for World Cup 2014. Today's doodle is Doodle #15. Its inspiration comes from the streets of Rio straight to the homepage.



Scores for the latest matches.. Lucky Korea Republic.

I got a kick last month when I first came across these World Cup men's underwear displayed high up on the wall of a sportswear shop. But of course you've got to have these to show your support for your favourite team(s)! I didn't check out the price but I read they are for a princely sum of RM25 a piece.

Happy Father's Day and World Cup reactions

To all Fathers out there, HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
And if you're a footie dad, what better treat than to have the World Cup happening in the same month, yes?




This morning, England vs Italy... 1 - 2. Ouch!



And for an earlier match, someone showed me a similar image as the one I recreated below. See if you can figure it out.


Clever, eh?
