What a tense match. The Dutch girl grew during the match, but the Germans were really dangerous at times. The German players were excited when they realized that the match was going to be decided by shoot outs.

 

Fortunately, the Dutch won their semi final again, just like they defeated New Zealand in the semis 4 years ago after shoot outs. :cheer:

Sad day for the sport. Dutch player is rolling on the floor, acting as if shes injured, germans play the ball out and then the dutch girls just keep the ball instead of giving it back. Hopefully they will lose the final in the worst possible way, a gold medal for this team would make a joke out of this sport.

Oh yes.

 

Großbritannien 5-0 Netherlands (I just wanted to use the letter 'ß' if I'm honest)

As now we come across the world
To share these Games of old
Let all the flags of every land
In brotherhood unfold

Yes, i will cheer for your team, lets go GB, beat this embarrassing dutch team! :fingers:

 

Edit: You should have wrote "Großbritannien 5-0 Holland" ... Holland = (german word for) the Netherlands

1) Great to see that you can laugh about yourself.

2) Frank Rijkaard likes that! (Just ask Rudi Völler) :yes

3) Not so great to see that you cant keep your word of not quoting me, its hard to respect you when you cant even keep your own word and its a bit irritating for me to be honest ... do you ignore me or not? I dont get it ... please tell me! :cry:

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
