Switzerland puts up a good fight but Argentina is persistent and scores the only goal late in OT

Last game in round of 16 is coming up in under an hour

....Belgium is a strong team that has been playing very well, I can't see the USA winning today....but you never know
Switzerland defended well today but Aregentina were persitant and deserved to win

And i tink the USA are going to win today i havent fanced Belgium at all

you got to respect the courage of the USA team, as they would not surrender and fought hard to the very last seconds but just could not match the second Belgium goal

Costa Rica played for the shoot out then lost it, the Dutch looked good again.

Belgium played very good but not quite good enough to win over Argentina

France played extremely well but still could not overcome the Germans...quite the power house they are

Brazil had no problems with Columbia but they have a huge void to fill with Neymar out with an injury

The goalie is gonna need to hire the expendables to handle his security, anything less and he is a goner for sure

you can't blame the goal tender, it was an entire break-down of team Brazil....everyone played far below expectations

the fans were sad and crying, not angry and mad, so I don't anticipate any violence but if I was wearing a German uniform, I would not be beating my chest or teasing the Brazilian fans

I argree it was the e tire team but i think Brazil got what was coming they were a nothing team the whole tournament and they meet there match today , i would still think that Germany are not winners yet and if Argentina dont step up tomorrow that it will be another big score for a european team

yeah, Brazil was flat all along and Germany has been awesome.....so no big surprize that the home team is out

Argentina will struggle without Di Maria, and the Dutch have been playing strong, so an all European world cup is very posiable

I wonder if Louis van Gaal is second guessing himself for not bringing in Tim Krul to goal tend the shoot-out as done in the Costa Rica match.

Anyhow, I'm glad to see a South American country advance...go Argentina go!

Someone said you can't blame Brazil's goalie, not true.

Tim Howard saved 16 shots on goal from Belgium. Many of the goals Brazil gave up would have not been goals had Howard been playing in his spot.

You can't blame him for the loss, but you can blame him for the blow out.

With a proper goalie, it would have been 2 or 3 to 0 instead of 7-1. Had the game not been so out of hand, Germany doesn't give up a goal.

That said... I want to address something I saw on Olberman.

He was speaking about the potential rise of popularity of soccer in America.

When we watch team USA play we have to listen to English announcers call the game... no, call the match.

For some reason proper grammar goes out the window on the soccer field... I mean pitch.

If soccer is going to become popular in America, I think it is imperative we create our own soccer culture, instead of importing it from Europe and England.

We give MLS teams stupid names, FCNY? They ought to be called the soccer yankees, with pinstripe uniforms, not kits.

We need an American announcer for the games.

We already call the sport by a different name, no need to be lame and use improper grammar (the USA have, when it should be has) and silly names for the terms of the sport.

Brazil and Netherlands play for the third place today.

I'm hoping for the home team, as a win will have more redemption value for the Brazilian fans than for the Dutch....but Holland will likely dominate

That Brazil melt down was the most shocking thing I've ever seen.

It was more than the absence of two players.

I wouldn't have expected that if Namar and Silva were not replaced with a sub.

I'm betting the pull it together and give it a good go today.
